Kind of off topic, but you had two shows in one day? If so, how did it go? I'm doing that in February and I hope I don't kick myself for doing that. But I REALLY want to get tons of double points so I can earn the Atlantis trip!janel kelly said:I know, I wish I could remember her exact question. I had another show right after that show so my brain was a little shot. Maybe if anyone could give me any info on what our baster is like and how great it is over other basters then I could relay that to the lady from my show.
I don't know if I should try to do the same recipe at both shows and wash my stuff at the first host's home (usually I just come home and stick stuff in the dishwasher) and re-pack it and have it ready to go. I'd be curious to know how you did it. And anyone else who's done two shows in one day! 
Yes Becky, I've done several 2-a-days. I do try to prepare the same recipe so that I don't have to pack quite as much. (I offer the one I want that I'm doing at the other, and then another that doesn't sound as appetizing (shhh). I have never ran late to my 2nd show, but I always allow a cushion. I schedule the first so that I'll be done by 3 pm, my next one to start at 6 pm (since I usually get there 30-45 minutes prior).pamperedbecky said:... you had two shows in one day?

The best way to use a baster is to first ensure it is clean and dry. Then, place the tip of the baster into the liquid you want to draw up, squeeze the bulb to expel air, and release the bulb to suck up the liquid. To baste, simply insert the tip into the food and gently squeeze the bulb to release the liquid over the dish.
Yes, you can use a baster for marinades. It’s a great way to evenly distribute the marinade over meats or vegetables. Just make sure the marinade is not too thick, as this can clog the baster. If it is thick, consider thinning it out with a bit of liquid.
To clean your baster, disassemble it if possible and wash it in warm, soapy water. Use a bottle brush to clean the inside of the tube thoroughly. Rinse well and allow it to air dry completely before storing it to prevent any residue buildup.
Yes, the Pampered Chef baster is dishwasher safe. However, it’s recommended to place it on the top rack to avoid any potential damage from the heat of the bottom rack. Always check the care instructions that come with your specific product for the best results.
A baster can be used for various purposes beyond basting. It can be used to transfer liquids, such as sauces or dressings, from one container to another. Additionally, it can help in filling jars or containers with liquids without spilling, making it a versatile tool in the kitchen.
