Reheat pizza by placing a few drops of water in a frying pan & cover. Gives the bottom the slightest bit of crunch & the steam reheats the rest evenly.
Canned soup + a bouillon cube + extra of that one thing that you like (pasta, rice, meat, veggie).
You can use frozen strawberries instead of ice in many drinks. Doesn't water the drink down, and you get a sweet treat at the end.
Hmmmmm wonder if I should do that instead of whisky stones.
You could but it wouldn't have the same crunch.
I use frozen cranberries for sake. Frozen grapes work well for a lot of drinks too.
To add to the pizza reheat:
if pizza stale, wet (clean) hand a little bit, wipe it on the bottom of the slice(s) then microwave for 45 seconds (30 seconds if room temperature) add 10 seconds for each slice past the first.
Alternate: microwave any non-hot-and-fresh pizza for half the above designated time, then put in toaster oven on the 'light toast' setting.
RE soup:
identify meat in soup. Add ramen packet of same animal flavor. If no animal in soup, add any flavor or add tiny amount of soy sauce
Ramen alternate: Add eggroll that best matches ramen flavor. If frozen eggroll, microwave 30 seconds.
RE ice:
most liquids can be put in ice cube trays. not milk (it curdles/separates). no alcohol (wont freeze most likely). Try soda, pomegranite juice, peppermint oil (dilute 1:10 to 1:20 or to taste), fruit juices, soup broth, applesauce, coffee, etc
Alternate for milk (freeze these and add to milk): nutella, chocolate syrup (might not freeze), simple syrup (if it doesn't freeze, dilute with water)
