If you cannot avoid going in to school or the office, do your best to keep your illness contained. Stay well clear of your colleagues in order to minimize their exposure to your illness. Telecommuting is another excellent option for getting work done without exposing your coworkers to infection. When you are sick, it is a good idea to wash your hands more often than normal. Use warm water and soap, and wash your hands for at least 15 seconds to make sure that you are fully cleaning your hands. This will help prevent the spread of infection around the office, such as when you touch doorknobs or computer keyboards. When you cough or sneeze, use your sleeve or elbow to cover your mouth. Sneezes and coughs spread infection easily, and you do not want to expose your colleagues. Covering your mouth with your hand might lead to you spreading germs when you touch doors, computers, or other objects around the office. Your elbow is much safer. When you are sick, use disinfectant cloths and sprays to wipe down communal surfaces. Be sure to clean doorknobs, drawer pulls, and the refrigerator door handle. Any surface that both you and your colleagues are likely to touch should be disinfected. Do not lend your colleagues your computer, mug, stapler, or pen when you are ill. If they ask to borrow these items, warn them that you are feeling under the weather. It is better for them if they borrow an item from another, healthy colleague. It is terrific to use reusable items most of the time. That is better for the environment and often better for your pocketbook. However, you are allowed to cheat a bit when you are feeling sick and contagious. Splurge on disposable coffee and tea mugs, disposable silverware, and paper plates. This will allow you to throw away your used items to minimize your colleagues' exposure to your infection.

The easiest way to thicken a cream sauce is by reducing it on the stovetop. This method will allow some of the sauce to evaporate, thickening it in the process. Adjust the heat on your stovetop to bring the sauce to a simmer. The sauce should stay just below the boiling point as it simmers. It’s important that you do not allow cream sauce to boil. High heat can cause dairy to separate, ruining the texture of your cream sauce. Keep the sauce simmering, and make sure it doesn’t begin boiling. If the sauce begins to boil, reduce the heat immediately or remove it from the stove completely. Allowing the dairy to separate can also affect the flavor of your sauce, so watch the sauce vigilantly.
