Are you creative?  You need to be.  I feel like I am a survivalist after my two year flight attendant career.  An interesting character in the story of flying is the hotels you stay in.  Although you may think microwaves are common place in hotels, the likelihood of you having a microwave in your room or down in the lobby is slim to none.

You will soon become a master at cooking with a coffee pot.  Now, I never washed in a coffee pot, but I have heard many stories from flight attendant school and from other flight attendants and pilots about people who wash items like socks and ties in their coffee pot.  For this reason I ALWAYS wash the coffee pots before I cook/make coffee with it.  If they wash in it, who knows what else that pot can be used for!

My favorite dish was Ramen Noodles.  You put water in the reservoir and the noodles in the pot.  Turn it on and voila, the boiling hot water cooks the noodles almost perfectly.  As a side-note, always clean the coffee filters too as you don’t want an extra coffee flavor in your food!  Unless, of course, you love coffee and it’s too early in the morning.  Ravioli, condensed soups, instant mashed potatoes and food that you generally warm on your stove in a pot do real well.  Bon Appétit!
