Ok, don't tell the IT guys I'm saying this. But, you know an easy way to keep your food warm? Put it next to your PC tower. That thing gives off a lot of heat. Or at least the ones that really need updating (ahem) do.
I had whole wheat rolls and butter pats (saved from take-out) for breakfast the other morning. They were cold from the fridge, but after half an hour next to the PC they were nicely warmed up. I also use this method for keeping my toast warm (yes, it takes me so long to eat toast that I actually have to keep it warm).
It doesn't work that well for liquids, and certainly doesn't keep things hot. But for a quick fix, it works pretty well.
I used to do this with frozen meals. I would leave them on my tower, and by lunch they would be defrosted. Then I would only need 1 or 2 minutes at the community microwave at work instead of 5 minutes. Now that I have a laptop, I can't do this anymore...
