do you clean dirty dishes and stuff right away or do ya let it pile up a bit in the sink , i do mine right away

I save time and generally eat off the cutting board.

Fewer dishes that way. 😉

I tend to wash even as I am cooking. I rarely ever let them pile up.

In fact that's a good way to see if I am sick, tired or feeling extremely down.

Yet that rarely matters since it's just myself for the last 15 years.

I wait about an hour after a meal and clean up the dishes. If I'm really tired I may leave a few dishes until later/night.

I do it mostly straight away

scrape, rinse and put in the dishwasher right away

I like to do them right away but if my back is hurting I have to go sit down awhile. For some reason standing at the kitchen sink stresses my back, I guess I have to bend a little while washing dishes.

When there's no space left on the worktop by the sink, I wash up. So glad I've got one-and-a-half sinks to be able to rinse first

I always wash em or put em in the dishwasher. No dirty dishes on the counter.

I pile them up for the dishwasher

Pile up.......

I try to clean right away, but sometimes I'm just too damn tired.

It depends on what's on them. If it won't come off with a little bit of scrubbing, I let it soak.
