You are at work. It isn’t lunch time yet and it isn’t time to go home, but you are hungry! It’s snack time and snacking at your desk is the only option.
These are some tips to make it easier, quicker and neater. The bag of potato chips is calling to you, but you don’t have a bowl or a chip clip for the leftovers. Make your chip bag into a bowl then clip it with pen from the desk. A healthy apple is your snack, but you can’t stand the browning that happens to it when it sits out for a while.
This trick with a rubber band holds the apple slices together to prevent browning. Boiled eggs are great. To boil one right at your desk just put it in a cup of very hot coffee. Avocados are wonderful, but they ripen slowly sometimes. Just put it in a bag, throw in a banana peel, roll up the bag and it will ripen much more quickly.
The microwave has its problems. To heat food faster and more evenly, put a circle in the middle before heating. To fit more into the microwave at once, make levels with a mug. Crunchy granola bars make a mess, but microwave it first and no more crumbs! Bagels can be easily stored in a CD spindle for later use. And if you’re bored, the volume of your phone can be increased by putting it in a cup.
