Agreed, having to do cleanup as well as cook is a bit of a bear. On the
other hand, one of the signs of a good head cook is being able to keep
the kitchen fairly clean as the day progresses. Generally not too much
of a problem, since we often use the same pots and pans over and over
again.

I've been known to supervise cleanup from a seat on the sidelines, but
generally I have a vested interest in seeing that my own tools and
equipment make it home with me, and not to a milk crate in someone's
basement.
