YoungBlueEyes said:That reminds me of another one Green_hopeful. When you think you've finished a bottle of Bailey's, screw the top back on and leave it upside down for a few minutes. Still upside down, carefully open it and you'll have another (tiny) drink in the capNo man is worth crawling on this earth.
So much to read, so little time.7 -

At Christmas I was given a bottle of Chocolate Baileys (gorgeous - to die for!)
When it got to the end I added a good swig of double cream - liquid gold .6 -

We've had one errant bottle of honey go completely solid. I've managed to scoop out a bit out of the top for my toasted buttered muffin and have now left the bottle on a saucer on the kitchen window sill. It gets the full morning sun so it's just a matter of time before it re-liquifies. (she said hopefully).
Nuking it didn't work and I wasn't sure how nukable the plastic bottle was. Putting it on the radiator in the morning was working quite well but again - I wasn't sure how much heat the plastic could take and didn't want to try to clean honey out of all the radiator nooks and crannies - bad enough dusting them!!!I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe and Old Style Money Saving boards.

I have microwaved the plastic honey bottles but not a full one you need to take the lid off and keep an eye on it as it's it can contract. I may copy your put on warm window sill. In the summer I may put in the greenhouseLife shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage - Anais Nin4

All honey crystallises eventually, and heating gently will liquefy it. I’d stand the jar in some hot water rather than leave in the sun - you might need to repeat a few times.Life is mainly froth and bubble: two things stand like stone. Kindness in another’s trouble, courage in your own.8

I have melted the honey bottle in the microwave by accident trying to get it out. Not a good idea.7

You can reliquify (?) honey by standing it in a deep bowl of hot water. Turn and swirl it about every now and again and it'll soon go.I don't wanna shut up, I want a 7up and a 10p mix-up.7
