Run out of syrup?

If you've just realized you're out of syrup (after making pancakes or waffles, of course), then raid your jelly for a solution. I used Simply Fruit Blackberry Jelly, but you can use whatever you have on hand. Put a little bit (A tablespoon or so) in a small bowl, and put it in the microwave for about 20 seconds. Voila! Blackberry Syrup.

(Hint: It tastes better, too, unless you're used to using Pure Maple Syrup.)

That is a definite good quicky syrup.

I also make syrup by cooking brown sugar and water, with maple flavoring.
