I got dugg down for suggesting using a kettle? >_< I didn't realise they aren't common though. Boiling water has many uses beyond tea.

Nevermind that it'll take you an extra hour looking around in the supermarket for some of those ingredients, as few of them are things we'll just have "laying around". Hey, go to the freezer and get me my sea scallops!
