My hebrew is not so great. I am looking for one that raises and lowers so that my wife can have easier access to the upper shelves and make them more useful.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5746038026718535483.post-44739768275239266432011-01-09T16:03:31.803+02:002011-01-09T16:03:31.803+02:00can I post about half of this on my blog this comi...can I post about half of this on my blog this coming "kitchen tips Tuesday"?

That way, while you are rinsing each dish directly, the other dishes underneath get a little indirect rinsing, saving you a little time and water. :)Hadassahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5746038026718535483.post-42020367808968115582009-07-05T09:37:29.176+03:002009-07-05T09:37:29.176+03:00I really want a window above my sink.

I know quite a few Israelis who do have windows above their sinks, but you're right that this isn't so ubiquitous here.Maya / מיהhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09871125878143128412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5746038026718535483.post-31259049386797967832009-07-01T19:34:58.955+03:002009-07-01T19:34:58.955+03:00Maybe the reason Israel sinks have racks above the...Maybe the reason Israel sinks have racks above them is because people live in apartments, where the kitchen sink is on an internal wall and so there isn't a window directly above the kitchen sink ... whereas in most people live in houses with a window above the sink.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01215559381558500462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5746038026718535483.post-52324652254528439632009-06-30T12:13:27.010+03:002009-06-30T12:13:27.010+03:00Yonatan, that's a really brilliant suggestion!...Yonatan, that's a really brilliant suggestion!

I have been following your blog for a couple of months now, great blog. Suggestion, you said it helps to rinse all the dishes at the same time, why not think like a dishwasher... get a... I guess american style dish drainer, one that fits in the sink. After you wash them don't rinse them yet, put them in the dish drainer along with the flatware, and then spray them all off at the same time in the strainer.Yehonatan / יוֹנָתָןhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06466761036841605258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5746038026718535483.post-5274195701169078942009-06-28T15:18:50.621+03:002009-06-28T15:18:50.621+03:00I totally agree with the dollar bills bbq analogy ...I totally agree with the dollar bills bbq analogy - genius! And I think that the rack is a European thing, but who knows, maybe it is Israeli. I still get a kick out of showing mine to Americans who have never seen one before. It makes so much more sense to let your dishes drip into the sink, and so it's always impressive.tobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02539537363084834903noreply@blogger.com
