Kitchen Rules to Remember

Always go over the recipe with an adult before you begin any kitchen project. Make sure that person has enough time to help you complete the recipe.
Read through your recipe before you begin to make sure you've got all the ingredients and tools you'll require.
Clean up as you go. Wipe down counters, put dirty dishes in the sink, and rinse out bowls as you finish with them. That way, cleaning up is quick.
Be sure all of your ingredients are fresh. Check expiration dates on all milk and dairy products.
Re-read the recipe a few times as you're cooking to be sure you don't forget any steps. Also, if you are new at cooking, keep distractions, such as TV and friends, out of the kitchen until you're finished. You'll be better able to concentrate on making your recipe a success.
