Is it just me or do other people refuse to leave a spoon alone in the dishwasher overnight? If other cutlery is nearby, say a fork in its own compartment, I’ll put the two together. I’d hate for them to be lonely.

I read what I’ve just written above to my daughter. I assume she’ll laugh at this random thought that popped into my head when I started writing today.
