We had processes like: on paper/plastic utensils only that get trashed...put down paper towels on the counter to catch crumbs...nothing 'heated' if I'm home (never ever heated/cooked PB)...if she needed to wash something that had nuts/pb it didn't go in the dishwasher and she used her own special 'nutty sponge' from under the sink...just being very very careful and she really really was
We did have our own cookware - which helped. Truthfully I was happy b/c she would use metal utensils in her non-stick and I didn't want my expensive pots/pans ruined
Generally - being nut/pn free was the norm, and her eating/having nuts/pb was the exception and needed the special procedures.
Good luck!
One thing to watch for is she has people over or a bf/gf over a lot...that's where a few 'oops' happened where my roommate caught her bf putting a pb covered knife in the dishwasher and also getting granola/nuts all over the counter and not cleaning up.
