Didn't ovens used to come with a built-in plate warming drawer? What happened to them?
I never bother warming plates unless my dad is here. He insists on a warm plate. I put it in the microwave for about 2 minutes.
My food never stays long enough on the plate for me to bother warming it up first. I can be halfway through my pudd before everyone else has cleared their plates- think I hoover food up :-(
