Another useful microwave tip, especially with all those
brown-sugar-intensive Christmas baked goods coming up: if brown sugar
has hardened and lumped, before you use it put the whole package in the
microwave on high for about 15 seconds. If not quite softened, try
another spin at 10 seconds. (Do it in short bursts til it's the right
consistency -- it'll liquefy if left in too long.)
