what are you eating??

[MIke R]

finally going to my daughters restaurant this weekend...we are both very very excited for it......review to follow

nice way to start the holiday week

 

[Dennis]

Nothing yet.

Waiting on UA 3451.

Gonna be a late dinner...

 

[amyb]

Love your menu, Rosemary. So much to be thankful for -our health, our family, our friends

 

[Rosemary]

Thank you, Mike and Amy. Nice picture Dennis! Yes-so much to be grateful for.

 

[Rosemary]

Hmmm.... Mine is Calphalon. But it usually works?

 

[andynap]

I have both- Le Crueset and Caphalon . Crueset holds the heat evenly but both do the job.

 

[MIke R]

all my pots are Crueset......I dont believe anything holds heat more evenly then they do....I do also have Capholon in sauce pans and small fry pans....but I almost always reach for my cast iron fry pans first...I have one that is 20 years old and nice and black the way a cast iron fry pan looks after years of service

 

[amyb]

I call that "nicely broken in"

 

[MIke R]

yep....

 

[andynap]

The only problem with Crueset is you can't touch for 30 minutes after you are done and mine are way older than yours- obviously.

 

[MIke R]

yeah thats true but that very characteristic is what makes them so good for cooking

 

[andynap]

It's a fact not a complaint

 

[Dennis]

The only problem with Crueset is you can't touch for 30 minutes after you are done and mine are way older than yours- obviously.

Why would you need to touch them.

Aren't you eating for thirty minutes?

 

[andynap]

To clean tbem. They actually stay hot longer than that. And it's called I forgot it was hot.

 

[Dennis]

And it's called I forgot it was hot.

Lisa suffers from this...when she once in a blue moon decides to clean up after my messy cooking.

 

[amyb]

My worst was putting my hand, palm down, on an electric stove top. I had circular marks for weeks. OUCH-just remembering it!

 

[andynap]

I think I solved this with potholders that have pockets that I put over the handle.

 

[MIke R]

I forget things are hot all the time.....and yes Andy I have those same potholders

 

[MIke R]

Lisa suffers from this...when she once in a blue moon decides to clean up after my messy cooking.

if I cook.....I don't clean...non negotiable

 

[Dennis]

Oh, agree. And I would add I shop to that as well.

But sometimes, she wants to let me relax while she cleans.

It doesn't last.
