In the category of what may be the laziest tip ever, here’s how I dry the dishes:
You wouldn’t believe how stinkin’ fast a big pile of dishes will dry with a small fan blowing on them. No effort needed. Plus, there’s not usually water spots, either, because the air blows them away.
I keep a small fan in my kitchen year-round because whenever I heat the oven up to 450º, the smoke detectors go off, no matter what I’m cooking, so I use it to circulate the air in my kitchen. Then, I realized the fan could do double duty and my amazing super-duper dish dryer was born. No childbirth required! ;)

I would have NEVER thought of that…but my dishes do dry far faster in the summer, when the swamp cooler is blowing right through the kitchen.
What a fabulous idea! thanks for the tip!!

Great idea! Thanks for sharing.
That is an awesome idea…my kids will be so happy to not have to towel dry!
I just let mine sit out overnight ;)
You mean you don’t have *multiple* piles of dishes throughout the day?! :)
