Washing dishes during a boil water advisory is possible, but it’s not a free-for-all. Treat the water with respect, boil your rinse water, and skip the sponge. It’s annoying, but it’s way better than spending a day worshipping the porcelain throne. Trust me on that last one.
So next time your phone buzzes with that dreaded alert, take a deep breath. You’ve got this. And if all else fails, paper plates were invented for a reason. No shame in the plastic fork game.
