I live on pasta. I often eat while at the computer. It ends up on my lap. I am tempted to move my comp., into the bathtub, sit there naked and type. Then remove it and shower. Don't have a lap-top nor Ethernet, so this may be too much effort. Any suggestions ? Stained Paws

Hmmmmmmmm

Switch pastas

Smaller bite size - penne for example

Wear a bib long enough to drape over the keyboard

Invest in a voice command computer - keeps the distancce

Teach your cat/dog to type


dunno

Bon appetit

have a little table set to the side just for eating purposes and that way when you are eating you are off to the side and you don't get it on your computer and that way it doesn't wreck your computer.

Build a see through table that slides out over your keyboard, so you can set your plate on it close enough to your face that it is like holding the plate up while your eating, then your hands will be free to type when the fork isn't in it (if you use a (fork), jaw drop rolling on the floor laughing and you can still see the keyboard if you need to, but not get any pasta or sauce on it, or on your lap. rolling on the floor laughing

I know your going to say "I hate anchivoes" but a cup of olive oil in a frying pan at a boil, add lot's of cut clove garlic and anchivoes(one tin) let them blend,put over pasta ,I like #8 or 9,and add fresh breadcrum's. It's so good. As you cook again,you may want to adjust the way you like it.

I never drop anything on the keyboard, always on my clothes. I've tried wearing a bib, it just bounces off the bib and onto the comp. Have to change clothes after every meal. Paws

I concur, penne is a good choice, or rigatoni.. unless you want to with ravioli-like noodles and eat with chopsticks just to be different. If you're intent on eating pasta at the computer, put the keyboard on your lap and your plate/bowl where the keyboard was - law of averages says it has a better chance of survival.

Don't eat too much pasta as it has too much starch for me.
I live on fresh fruits and veggies and yogurt since I've
started on this health kick several weeks ago. But maybe
cut it in small pieces and use a spoon. Or like me have your
P.C. in your bedroom and sit naked. Not a pretty thought, huh?
Good day to you Paws. You are one cool Dude.
