I tried a couple of methods with no success as you'll see below but in the end I mastered it - by using the microwave of all things! ;-)Anyone who regularly reads my weekly five frugal things posts will know that I love a good bunch of reduced flowers from the supermarket to brighten up my kitchen snd regularly manage to find some bargains at the end of the day in our local supermarkets.
