Today’s post I’ve partnered with GE Appliances! It’s informative and exciting, and I can’t wait to share more with you.
But let me start with our back-to-back dinner parties that we recently hosted.
Last weekend, my husband and I entertained both Thursday and Friday nights. We don’t usually do this, but it worked out to be the only nights available for both couples.
In 22 yeas of marriage, I think it’s the first time we’ve done back-to-back entertaining with 2 young couples. It was a blast, and so refreshing and fun!

And it was easy. Even though I cooked different menus, I used the same tabletop.
So when it was time to set the table the first night (with placemats–can you believe I didn’t use a tablecloth? ha-I’m such a tablecloth girl), I used my West Elm owl salad plates.

The second night, I used cheery yellow salad plates.
But kept everything else the same.

Enter our new GE 120 v Hybrid Stainless Steel Dishwasher.
I did an experiment during both dinners and ran our new dishwasher while the guests were here! You may remember my post, when I had just gotten my dishwasher installed and wrote about the features.


Keeping the peace …
One reason I LOVE our new appliance is because it keeps the home peaceful! We all know there’s nothing more disruptive than a loud dishwasher running – while you’re having dinner party!
Here are more GE Hybrid Stainless Steel Dishwasher features:
-There’s a hard food disposer with removable filter which pulverizes food particles and helps to prevent large particles from clogging the wash arms.
-2 separate wash zones – upper and lower – with a silverware basket on each level.
-Easy access silverware baskets with dedicated jets that clean each area.
-Adjustable upper rack, which holds plates up to 10 1/2″ and other tall items, such as wine glasses!
-Status light on the door tells you when the load is finished.
-Option to turn the “heated dry” off.
No smudges or water stains …
The stainless steel choice was perfect for my kitchen. Any water marks, smudges, or food wash off perfectly with Windex!

It more than meets my idea of a superior dishwasher, as I now realize how lacking my other one was.
If you’ve been shopping for a new dishwasher, please feel free to email me any questions. We love our new GE!
Clean just feels good …
And the reliability and confidence that my dishes will be clean – every time – also feels great!

Hi, I'm Sandy. Five years ago I stocked up on beautiful glasses from the Dollar Store. As I started writing about dinner parties, I realized that this "icon" portrays a great message.
I want to share with you some of my favorite places to visit in blog-land, sites that I learn from and am inspired by, and some beautiful friends that I’ve met over the years.
