An electric skillet helps the crowd on the stove top. Also the microwave. We cook spaghetti a lot and have no problem. I think you just learn to deal with it. Nothing is perfect. We rarely cook for more than the 2 of us so this may be different for those with children along.
Happy trails.......................
