Ive never been a microwave snob.
I mostly use my microwave to zap leftovers.

Or at least I did until I discovered my microwave cooking savior: a bowl cozy!
They are manufactured to be microwaved, so no need to worry about them catching on fire or overheating.
I first discovered them at my friends Harry and Jarrods one Christmas.
We reheated soup in heavy-duty ceramic bowls that get scorching hot in the microwave.
Jarrods mom had made the bowl cozies as gifts, and they saved our fingers!
Instead of asking Mrs. Swartout to make me one, I was impatient and ordered some online.
(I wasthatimpressed!)
Now I am the proud owner of a set of two bowl cozies,like these ones.
Mine have fruit and vegetable patterns and are made with several layers of quilted cotton.
In spite of its name, these bowl huggers work for plates too!
