Help me solve this strange mystery?!?!

[Feelingcrappy2]

I’m sorry but something happened last night and I will not move past it until the mystery is solved.

I loaded the dishwasher with the usual plates, cutlery etc and the last thing to be added was a big dish that the lasagne was in. I clearly remember putting it in there as I had to slightly manoeuvre it to get it in (it’s quite a big dish).

Any way………. The cycle finished. The dish is gone. Nowhere to be seen. Wasn’t in the dishwasher when I unloaded it. Not in the house.

What. On. Earth. Is. Going. On.

Either….. 1. I am crazy or 2. The dishwasher ate it.

There is simply no explanation.

Either your DP broke it and hid it in a bin (not necessarily your bin if he’s a pro)

Or you will discover it somewhere completely random like the rabbit hutch where you absent mindedly took it with you where you went to change the water

I am a bugger for moving stuff about when I'm distracted (ie talking on the phone, listening to a podcast etc) and then completely forgetting about it. Maybe you have a brain like mine and you will subsquently find that you took it out (because it didn't fit and you were worried that it might break) and carried it upstairs with you and it will be in the spare room on the bed, or something.

.. or the Cat is evidence that the OP is a witch who magicked away her own lasagne pan but she’s now forgotten?

The annoyance screams guilt to me!

Is checking the bin/bottom of dishwasher/oven the new 'cancel the cheque'?

Well if you didn't touch it then must be your DP.

What does your DP think happened to it?

DH is playing a joke or accidentally broke it and threw it away.
Or it shattered in the dishwasher into tiny pieces and went down the drain.

Alternatively, try asking it for it back outloud to the resident ghosts and it will randomly appear somewhere in your house.

and is his name Garfield with a penchant for Lasagne??

Was there a gap where it had been?

Sorry. Read the full thread and didn't register that this had been asked.

Hmmm, I think it might now be in @fiddlesticksandotherwords freezer marked as Cedric Gross...

Is it in the oven?

I took it. it was me. currently storing cookies I it... you are welcome

A few years ago there was an epic thread about a vanishing toaster. It finally turned out that the OP’s mum had been in & borrowed it without telling her.

I suppose there’s no chance your mum’s taken the dish?

The only way to find this out for certain is to walk into the kitchen barefoot. Then he'll have to explain the shards of glass he's removing from your foot.

This was not the way I wished to be proven right, by the way. But he was still denying any knowledge of it right up to that (very, very sharp and painful) point.

Check the filter, it may have shattered and be in pieces in there

It's with the ironing board

Had your husband been doing T Rex in Asda?
And then you told him off?

So he took the dish out of the dishwasher in order to punish you for chastising him. And he's hidden it, so that you now think there is a poltergeist in your house.

Maybe it has joined up with that MN ironing board that disappeared...

This picture will never not be hilarious!

Yes this! Maybe your dishwasher is so good it's really, really clean and almost invisible?

If it’s our house it’s in the oven/microwave/fridge with leftovers in it!

If you can be sure your dh is telling the truth and was not involved then I think most likely is that you meant to put it in but didn't - maybe you handwashed it and forgot to stick other stuff in to fill the gap? Maybe you even left the clean dish on the counter and your dh stored it and you've both forgotten your part.

Oven
Top of the fridge
IN the fridge
In the freezer
Top of kitchen cabinets
In a cabinet but 'slid in' against a side rather than lying flat.
Stuck down the side of some gap you have, between fridge and wall or wine rack and wall etc.
Under the breadbin or something else that semi conceals it.

Spat my coffee out at that one! Hilarious!
