I routinely reheat cups of coffee in my microwave.
I am thinking my microwaving
style might be a bit abnormal. I would
guess most people place their cup at the center of the carousel before closing
the door and punching in a precise time.
Not me.
I set my cup at a random point along
the outer edge of the carousel plate and throw the thing in gear after poking in
a similarly a random heating time. The
end game is not just to heat my coffee. I
also want to see if the cup will land at the front of the microwave when time
runs out.
I have been on a losing streak this
week. In five out of my last five
re-heats, the cup has stopped at the back of the microwave.
Being so far off-center is surprisingly
entertaining.

Back of the Microwave
