You forgot to roll down your windows to jeer, cuss me out, and give me the Monee cheer.

Intention Tremor

I'm always dismissed pretty quickly from juries, as well. Probably not as quickly as Al, though!

My son is going to fit right in here... his dinner tonight, a bacon and fried egg burger.

Happy Birthday, Jeff!

My dogs wake me up WAY before the kids do!

Although the kids sure had fun today!

Word.

This. And I have a long history of back problems, including a herniated disc.

Finally checked and mine is the Hakushu 12. Makes sense, I taste more sherry than peat.

I don't even know which one I have. I'll have to check again ...

Funny, but I couldn't remember what I have. I just checked, and I actually have The Hakushu. Recommended to me because I told the salesman I liked Macallan , so he recommended this for being slightly peaty and having a slight sherry finish. I like it.

I hope you can find something similar at a local shop so you con't have to wait. I know how awful it is even for a few days. Maybe even Walgreens, or a nearby health supply store?

Hmm. Looks like some 'fuller figured' folks had trouble... I wonder if there is a larger size?

Sucks. Sorry to hear it. Neoprene back brace for now? Helps me tremendously whenever mine gives out (like 2 weeks ago).

Happy Birthday, catcoon whisperer! Do NOT ask him about his dinosaur!

Yay for Esme! Life changing for parents!

Happy Birthday, Mike! Maybe drink a beer?

Fried up some eggs on low this AM, and those eggs slid right off the pan! Fantastic! Also, the eggs were nice and soft. It's funny, I had a cast iron pan a decade ago and never got around to using it before Anne tossed it for being too heavy to use. When I fried eggs on medium or low, the egg just sat on the pan laughing at me. So I turned up the heat, and it fries, but always, always sticks, no matter what pan I get. Even non stick anything would be good for a few weeks, then start sticking. I've been through numerous pans that I didn't like and finally settled on buying whatever decent non stick was on sale and knowing I'd toss it in a year or two. This pan is heavy, but not unusably heavy. It conducts heat really nicely, and food releases so nicely from it. Even when I seared the chicken breast last week, it was nicely browned, but released off the pan so easily. I'm really looking forward to trying out some steaks and chops. I have to agree, this is a great pan, probably the best I've owned, and for what I paid, it's such a great deal. It's taken some time learning to adjust heat and getting it seasoned, but I suspect this will be the pan that I finally love, and it's so solid, I bet it'll last a lifetime!

Good stuff, thanks!
