Cast iron cooking
-
we homeschool our kids and also keep chickens so everyday our kids have eggs for lunch and they cook them in a lodge skillet we bought new about a decade ago. (cringe) After years of use its been fine enough, but doesn’t retain the non-stick that other old school ones do. Turn on the burner, plop a scoop of coconut oil in and by the time you wash the eggs it pretty much ready for action. We have glass cooktop and so long as you don’t scoot it around it doesn’t really scratch.
Only time we have problems is when an impatient kid doesn’t let it preheat before they start cooking…grrr
Ridley Acres Kids!!! Just have to keep trying that old saying: Patience is a virtue. It takes some very long to actually experience that thought.

johnsbrewhouse I have a couple of those “Giveaways” of the past. Many are quality pieces and better than what they make today. Hoping that each time you use them it brings back great memories of your Mom. It happens to me every time I use one of those gems. I used some 80+ year old Bread/Potica(Slovenian Nut Roll) pans from my mom the other day. Yep, the mind was very active.
zbigjeff I have a piece that is well over 100 years old and wonder about all the memories made over meals cooked in that pan. Solid piece of CI.

Tex_77 hahahaha. This was a wife/hubby trip that turned into a family trip instead. We tried to go to Jamaica twice but Covid screwed that up. I traded our travel voucher for a family trip. I miss the all inclusive food and booze. This is going to be a spendy 7 days!

ND Mike well you know if you get locked up down there that’s all inclusive food as well, just no booze…and the wife would be pretty mad too!

Tex_77 true story!!!

ND Mike Wife and I used to do the same, just all inclusives, anything else was a waste of money in our eyes and vacation was all about drinking and eating as much as possible and laying by pools while people brought us food and drink. She changed one day though, I saw signs of it here and there, not having that extra drink, drinking more water than captain morgan. I suspected what was happeneing but before I knew it, it had spread to me too! Now, we are VRBO people and she spends more time working out than laying on the beach!

Jonathon ohh I can do that too! We have done some of that too. Good thing about that is you can go to the store and buy the food you want. Usually a lot cheaper to stay too!!!

ND Mike Oh, the spendy, spendy week. You will not have fun if you even think how much is being spent.
zbigjeff oh I know…I was already complaining to the wife about how much we spent in the first day and a half! Only thing I tell myself is that we are making memories with kids. In the blink of an eye they we will be out of the house. Last time we were here with them was 6 years ago when my youngest was 5. Now that he is 11, it is so much more fun with him. He’s my daredevil and will go on all the fun coasters!!! Also have to remember it is only $$$ and I can’t take it to the grave.

ND Mike You have your head in the correct place. It’s always good to poopoo something to let them know that there are limits. Setting those limits is key. But, they will be out of your perview soon enough. Enjoy them now.
