FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Chicago– The Putz Household is celebrating tonight. For the first time since January 15, 2007, the Putz family has found the bottom of their sink again.
“It’s a miracle,” exclaimed Karen Putz, head of the household. “The last time I saw the bottom of the sink was several years ago. I forgot what it looked like!”
Putz credits an empty house and lack of travel for the successful accomplishment. “The kids are at camp all week and this was the first week in June that I didn’t have to fly somewhere,” said Putz. “I took one look at the mountain of dishes and said to myself, ‘I’m going to conquer that this week!’”
It took Putz nearly an hour to load up the dishwasher and start the automatic cleaning process with a push of a button. The large serving trays from Lauren’s graduation party were washed by hand and stored in the cabinet.
Over at Christie Lake in Lawrence, Michigan, Putz’s parents reacted with surprise and an excited cheer. “I’m so proud of my daughter!” said Marian Griffard. “This is such an amazing feat!”
Putz was amazed to discover a shiny sink after a few scrubs with a Scotch-Brite scrubber and some baking soda.
“I was just blinded by the find,” said Putz. “I had to dig out my sunglasses to finish the job.”
Putz plans to celebrate her thrilling achievement with a gathering of her closest friends tonight.
