[C320-list] Microwave

[wflowe3 at aim.com]

 My boat MW won't even pop popcorn. I use it to thaw stuff heat stuff, cook frozen breakfasts etc. All this could be done in different ways but that could be said for my home kitchen. The MW still is the most convenient cooking appliance I have and I use it a lot.

What do you use the MW for?  If primarily for popcorn, coffee/tea  
(instant coffee...ick...I'd prefer bilgewater) or heating water, buy  
JiffyPop.  All those can be done on the stove.
