Dear Queenie,
The other day a guest in our house went to wash his hands in the kitchen sink after he had been helping my husband with some yard work. I asked him please to use the bathroom sink instead and he got vexed with me for being so “finicky” about such a small matter.
Queenie, did I do something wrong?—Kitchen Etty Ket
Dear Etty Ket,
I know some people are particular about such things. Personally, I do not see much difference between washing the dirt off garden vegetables and washing similar dirt off one’s hands, but I know not everyone agrees with me.
As long as you asked him politely not to use the kitchen sink, I do not think you did anything wrong.
