    Stop ringing the potatoes and peel them instead!

    And grammar jokes aside, I try to do prep work ahead of time sometimes. Potatoes can be peeled and placed in a bowl of water in the fridge prior to cutting and mashing. I will chop up things like broccoli and carrots for stir fry. I make a gumbo where I take a pepper of each color, red green orange yellow, and dice them small, so like mini dice. I’ve gotten pretty good at it, but I’m no chef or anything, so it’ll eat up fifteen minutes or so, so for the gumbo I dice my peppers, slice the green onions, put them all in a bowl in the fridge ahead of time. Extra points if it’s during the workday.
