Cooking With the Computer

I like to keep a lot of my recipes on the computer instead of printing them all out. I used to walk back and forth between the kitchen and the schoolroom where the computer was to check recipes. Now that I have my laptop, I put it on the table. That makes it very convenient.

But then I discovered another problem. Using the computer with sticky or flour covered hands. I came up with a solution.

I covered the keyboard with plastic wrap while I was cooking. I can scroll down to read the recipe, and stop and re-start a video. Like in this picture, where my daughter was watching a video on braiding bread while following along.

We can follow along, without getting flour in the keyboard. When we’re done, we just roll up the plastic wrap, and throw it away.
