A tip when washing wine glasses
Whenever I have people over for dinner, I end up with a very full dish rack and nowhere to place wine glasses to dry. I used to just put them upside down on paper towels on my counter, but that didn't work very well because there was no air circulation. Recently I've taken to placing them on a cooling rack atop a cookie sheet. It works great: air circulates, water is contained in sheet pan, and they dry in no time.
