A Day in My Life 9: Doing the Dishes

Dinner was great... but look at my kitchen!

晚餐很好吃……可是你們看看我的廚房！

Ugh, there are dirty plates and pans everywhere.

I don't have a dishwasher, so I wash them by hand.

First, I clear the table.

I put the leftovers in a box for tomorrow.

Then I throw away the food scraps.

I add some dish soap.

Wow, look at all the bubbles!

I always wash the glasses first,

我都會先洗玻璃杯，

because they're the cleanest.

Then the plates, then the forks and spoons.

The frying pan is the worst part.

平底鍋最麻煩了。

I have to scrub it really hard.

我得用力刷才行。

Finally! It's clean!

終於！乾淨了！

I rinse everything with clean water.

我用清水把全部沖乾淨。

I put the dishes on the rack to dry.

我把碗盤放到瀝水架上晾乾。

Then I dry the glasses with a towel.

然後我用抹布把玻璃杯擦乾。

Last, I wipe the table and the counter.

最後，我擦餐桌和流理台。

That feels so much better!

感覺舒服多了！

Now I can relax.
