Mother knows best

After years of teasing my mother for doing the dishes immediately after we finished dinner, I have come to realize that there is no better way of getting them done. Nothing is worse than to let dirty dishes pile up in your sink. Before you know it, you're facing a giant mountain of greasy plates and pots, and every time you add something to it you feel less and less like washing them. Until there are no more plates, and you finally have to face the reality of the task ahead.
Listen to your mother.
Do your dishes first.
