In the expansion section there's the sentence:

蛋打进碗里以前，注意先把碗擦干。

Are you sure that the translation should be: "After breaking the eggs into the bowl, be sure to wipe the bowl dry"?Since 以前 is used, shouldn't it be before?

In the dialogue the phrase "what is he doing?" is written "在干嘛?", in the grammar section there's a phase "在干吗？", and both are identical in pronunciation. Is there any difference in what they actually mean? From the translation "what are you up to?" I would assume that the latter one refers to the future. Is this the case?
