And I Thought My Dishwasher Was Broken

Back in May we started noticing a yucky white film on all of our dishes after we ran them through the dishwasher. We ran the dishwasher using vinegar and bleach a couple of times to get the film off, and after a few weeks of hand washing decided to give the dishwasher repairman a call. He came and replaced our dishwasher arm. We ran some Dishwasher Magic through our dishwasher and then began washing dishes as usual. The first time through our dishwasher seemed to be fixed, but then the next load the white film was back, and we called our repairman up once again. We had the dishwasher valve replaced, and same thing . . . the film remained. We switched to Cascade Complete thinking this would help and it seemed to just make things worse! This all happened over the course of three months. The repairman kindly gave us a refund because he wasn't able to fix the problem and we've been hand washing ever since, waiting for the day we could afford a new dishwasher. And then my sister forwarded this article to me today, and I'm wondering, how many of you have been struggling with the same problem?

Eliza's Photo Shoot
















At about four weeks old, Eliza had her first photo shoot. My friend, Angela Liddle, happens to be an incredible photographer, and she conveniently lives just two buildings away! It was a wonderful experience - Angela had the fire going and some white noise in the background. It was so calm and peaceful. And I think the pictures speak for themselves - thanks again, Angela!
