People have been coming to usenet to ask others to do their homework for
as long as there has been usenet.

And other people have been telling those people to get stuffed for just
as long.

If nobody fulfilled the 2nd part, that would mean that the internet had
devolved thoroughly into a monkey house and not just mostly.

There is another option. You could just ignore people asking you to do
their homework for them.

By the way, I learned a new tip today. If the original poster didn't ask
this question I might not have learned something. Their motive might have
been wrong but it benefits me so I'm okay with it.

P.S. I just thought of another tip: If you are mixing something that
spatters, put the bowl in the sink and mix it there. Easier clean up.
Additionally, folder a tea towel and place it under the bowl so it doesn't
vibrate in the sink.

Another way, especially for whipping cream, is taking a double thickness
of waxed paper larger than the top of the mixing bowl, poking a hole
through the middle with the beaters, then inserting the beaters into the
motor. This makes a nice splash shield.

Another good tip. I would however hold the wax paper to the motor then
poke the beaters through the paper into the motor. This would guarantee
the holes are the right space apart.

The tip wouldn't work on my Kitchen Aid but then it has a splash guard.

Good point. I've been doing it for so long I just know where they need to
be.

My KA as well, but I used the waxed paper with my hand mixer.

For those who have a garbage disposal and don't like to use it for
certain things:

Here's what I do to keep down the mess when I'm breaking 10 eggs at a
time. I put a large piece of plastic wrap over the hole in the bottom
of the sink to put the egg shells in. Then I fold the corners up and
wrap them up and put them in the garbage.
I do exactly the same thing with peeling potatoes, as my disposal was
once ruined by putting down too many potato peelings in at a time.
One reason I don't put egg shells down the garbage disposal (without a
lemon) is the yukky smell!!!!

I also put down a piece of saran wrap on the cabinet beside the stove
top. I make any kind of mess I want, then wrap up that mess when I'm
finished - just toss.

OH MY... I'm going to have to remember these tips.

As sewer pipes are just being installed in our neighborhood, I've told my
husband as soon as we connect, We're getting a garbage disposer! There must
be a whole new set of rules to learn.

The first rule is to get the biggest, most powerful disposer you can afford.
I wouldn't get anything less than 3/4 horsepower. An undersized disposer is
worse than none at all. If you can't put vegetable peels down your disposal
without problems, then what good is it? I lived in apartments for years
that had terrible disposals. Inadequate disposers will jam when you put
steak bones in them. With heavy loads of food they tend to clog because
they can't adequately grind the food. When we moved into this house it had
the cheapest disposer the builder could find. I replaced it with a model
called the "Bone Crusher." I have never had a single problem with it
clogging or jamming. It takes anything I can feed down it including bones.
I also don't have problems with odor because it effectively grinds the food
which is then flushed away. A cup of Clorox down the disposal will take
care of any smell. Also, you can put a few handsfull of ice into the
disposal to scrub the mechanism. That will clean off bits of decaying food
that can cause odors. The only thing that I don't put into the disposal is
corn husks.

This is the first time you've interacted here. The other post was just
one act. Takes two to tango.

People have been coming to usenet to ask others to do their homework for
as long as there has been usenet.

And other people have been telling those people to get stuffed for just
as long.

If nobody fulfilled the 2nd part, that would mean that the internet had
devolved thoroughly into a monkey house and not just mostly.
