          If I was, would I own a microwave?

          where the frick do you live that you can't go to a store?

          I could go to a store but it feels stupid to go out and buy a saucepan to use like twice when I've already ordered one.

          check if the plastic container is microwave safe. if not, check if the bowl is microwave safe. if it is, do multiple microwaving water sessions using the bowl, pouring it into the plastic container or any other vessels in between sessions

          It's got a little microwave symbol stamped on the bottom, I assume that means microwave safe

          go get a used one from the thrift store for 7 bucks

          Never been able to find much cookware I like at thrift stores, I actually went with a used one off Etsy for like $20 (pic related)

            If you buy two pots you can cook two separate things at the same time.

              Possibly, but if I were to get another saucepan I'd want it to match the one I have. I'm color-coordinating my kitchen supplies to bright yellow, orange, and lime green. Feels citrusy and fresh.

          every food container has some kind of engravings on the bottom. If you can spot the wavy symbol it's safe to use in the microwave at boiling temperatures

            What does the flower mean? Safe to use in the spring? Or to hold flour?

    usually those types of plastic containers are safe up to 100°C (water boiling point) or more.
    try searching if there's something written on the bottom or on the lid.

      What does the flower mean? Safe to use in the spring? Or to hold flour?

      Judging from what I've seen on other containers, it's an abstraction of the "freezer-safe" snowflake

    Never microwave plastic, even if it claims to be microwave safe.
    Never try to boil water in the microwave because it can superheat and literally explode in your face and leave permanently-scarring burns.
