    My wife was like this when we met. She also grew up more poor than me. I still see her washing a lot of stuff by hand that should be in the dishwasher. Old habits die hard. The unspoken agreement is when we run out of a utensil, or get down to one, we run the dishwasher.

    One thing my mom taught her through me is not putting good kitchen knives or any wood through the dishwasher.

      Also, wood utensils, cutting boards, etc. need oiling. Just cheap mineral oil should do.
