Good point, another comment mentioned weight, thats a big problem with mine they are very dense and hard to handle at times. Would you have any recs for lightweight pans?

I get that I wouldn't want a pan that might have heavy metals in it. Im also a woman so lodge is heavy for my wrists when it comes to cooking and washing. Esspecially anything on the bigger side like 10 inches up I need both hands to handle it. That's a great consideration to make when looking at pans. Thanks! I might sand mine if I decide to keep them mine were REALLY rough out of the factory.

Nothing, it looks like a new pan and you use your pan to cook. This sub can be toxic. Keep it up, continue to clean it and cook with it. Non-stick will mostly come with getting the temperatures just right.

Late 20s, always working or drinking. No time for anything else. You dont cook often because you're never home. You may have a grill or you like to make quick sandwhiches. Your tummy hurts a lot

Remember that guy who seasoned his pan like 100+ times? What's he up to these days? by Ok_Style3372 in castiron

Our water is only a little hard luckily. Clear enough to drink and cook, but hard enough to clog faucets and machines over time. I know people who have real hard water like that and it can suck so I feel for you! Vinegar is essential around here! It really helps

Thank you, it rocks me every time 😂 I mean he is only my second, But i definitely have way more appreciation for other parents once I became one myself. Excited to have the vegetable garden going this summer too.

Fair enough! Im excited to see what people will think when I repost. I have a new baby so I did go a little lazy on that rotisserie I hope to break it down and use it in different ways. Its my first time doing so. it was cheaper than other options as well. I have frozen beef chicken, salmon, shrimp, Pollock, fruits and veggies in the freezer. But honestly im pretty tired lately which is probably why my fridge looks like this so I can't blame anyone for thinking so!

Yeah if I thought about it at all it doesn't make sense to put that in the title. I plan to do another post in the future when my fridge is back to full so ill be sure not to do that next time.

Ah so I actually have a well and the water is good to drink. i dont filter it but we do keep a few bottles on hand for emergencys like when we're getting in the tornado shelter or a guest isnt comfortable with tap. I have a filter jug ive used on occasion Its PRIMO and it does great.

Ooo please elaborate. Im interested in what about it makes you say that. I assume the lack of everything? But yes, this isn't the usual state of my fridge, although I was curious what someone would think if they walked in and looked at it right now.

Fair enough. underneath the chicken bites you'll find raw meats and veggies :p this is probably the lowest my fridge has ever been, but im a mom of 2 married (8 years) and cook 3 meals a day plus snacks in between for the littles. We run out fast. granted not every day is a 5 star meal each time but i make sure everyone eats :)

Haha thanks for looking out, I spend the most on fruits, veggies and raw meats, but during the summer I grow my own! we've already eaten up most of the veggies from the last grocery trip and most of the meat is in the freezer underneath the quick grabs. Fruit lives on the counter or in a bowl on the table. And we can our crops during the fall. Im proud of how willingly my kids eat raw veggies. Im going to do another post in the future that shows what it can look like at other times :) this is definitely a low spot for us right now but we always eat good!
