Stand up bell pepper shells (for Stuffed Peppers) in a large muffin tin to bake them, so they don't fall over

Put raisins (for baking) into a microwave-able container ** Cover completely with liquid (water, juice, liqueur) and microwave for 1 minute.
| 
Let raisins sit in heated liquid about 5 minutes, then drain. Your raisins will be nice and plump for baking now (especially needed for dark raisins)

Peel or slice onions near running water, and your eyes won't water

If you need to line a pan with foil, turn the pan over and form the foil to the shape of the pan....
| 
Pull shaped foil off bottom; flip pan and put foil inside. You just need to smooth against the sides now (without poking your fingers through the foil in the corners).
|
When you line your pans with foil, make sure 2 edges are at least 2" long (extending over side of pan). Then, you'll have "tabs" to pull out your baked goods later.
