One Bowl

I recently downsized from 1,500 SF to 1,000 and in that move I looked for opportunities to simplify my life. One such change was in the kitchen. I realized there was a pasta bowl that I grabbed for about 80% of my meals. It is a cross between a bowl and a plate and it’s big enough to hold a meal.

I use this dish as my go to now for all meals! When I’m done, I wash it. I put it in the dishwasher to dry. It is there to be ready for the next meal. Living alone I have this luxury. I can make up rules for the dishwasher and not have to teach others my rules. It’s great!

I almost thought this wasn’t worthy of a blog post. But, I think it is the easy little hacks like this which add up to a simple life. I now run my dishwasher about once a week as it is not stacked up with plates and bowls.

Is there something like this in your own life which you want to try?
