A kitchen tragedy

My dishwasher broke down! Perhaps this isn't a tragedy to most but DH and I have spent 8 years referring to our dishwasher as a "marriage saver" and honestly that's the way we feel about doing dishes. I hate it, he hates it but the machine never complains... until now. Of course, these things can't happen when we're just sitting around counting our millions (HA!), nope, it has to happen days before my huge tax payment is due. *sigh* A-shopping we will go...
