Celery is Stoners friend. Just go light on the peanut butter and other high calorie dippin treats.

Bleach and vinegar are sooooo old school. Get yourself some Mold Armor. This shit kills mold like nothing you’ve ever seen. Also, if you look closely you will see that the rails drain into the shower, so rinse lightly and everything should go down the drain.

Griswolds retain slightly less heat, but also heat up quicker. My 10” weighs 3lb 12oz, the Lodge is 6lb 2oz. That makes a big difference if you use it to sauté. They are a true joy to cook with. If they weren’t a superior product you wouldn’t have to pay over $1,000 for some of their skillets.

You need to start looking for some Griswold. Lightest cast iron I’ve ever owned. Garage sales are your best bet for scoring them at a decent price. Any reseller knows what they’re worth and that ain’t cheap.

Read his Wikipedia page. I think you’ll come to find he really is a rare good guy. No evidence I see of making his $$ off the backs of slave-wage labor.

I polished an 8” Lodge skillet a few years back and decided to work smarter. Took my random orbit 5” sander, taped some weight on the top palm rest, put on a 120 grit mesh, placed it in the pan and turned it on a low speed. It worked like a roomba hitting the sides and spinning over the pan. I needed more control as it was spiraling. I tied off the power cord to a nearby bench so the cord was fully taught at the far side of the pan. Now the sander could swing side to side without spinning. Whenever I was home I turned it on. Changed to a finer grit after the first 8 or so hours and again after another 8-10hrs.

All told that ran for 6 days, maybe 30 hours total. Got a finish as fine as my Griswold now.

These are NOT nachos. Proper nachos start with a fully round tostada. Schmeer on the refritos about a 1/4” thick. Place the jalapeños and cover with a generous handfull of shredded cheese. Now broil/toast them till the cheese has melted.
Cut into quarters and plate.
Nachos!

You’re Welcome.

Welcome fellow Banned Mate. Eagerly watching for the u/spez implosion and stock delisting. I loved most of almost 20 years. Then came Enshittification on an epic scale. I got nothin else. Still learning as I go.

Tear down all this bullshit wall ASAP! Motherfucking yankees have zero appreciation for our Spanish/French history. Our German overlord should spend the rest of his life in an orange jumpsuit.

I was this 8 yr old in 1965. Romper Room, TPIR, What’s My Line, soaps, soaps, soaps, local news at noon. We had, at most, 4 channels to choose from. Mickey Mouse Club in the afternoon.

Do not get me started on tatting!
