i recently learned you’re not supposed to run a microwave with nothing in it/it can fry itself broken.

but i want to heat up a plate to help keep the pancakes i put on it warm like they do in diners. putting just a plate in my microwave causes it to start freaking out 'cause i guess there’s not enough stuff in there to absorb the energy(? this is what google tells me).

are the diners just putting the plates on a burner on low? that feels wrong.

    I put my oven on low when making pancakes to keep them warm until I finish a batch. I guess there’s nothing stopping me from adding empty plates in there before serving.
