    Are all cast iron pans created equal?

    I've got this on my front porch. ($60 at an auction) Can it be used for cooking (what do I have to do to clean/season it) or should I just put flowers in it & be done?

    Anyone know what this is?

    Thanks for the info! I just can't see the thing not making a huge mess of an orange, but I'll put on a raincoat & let you know how it works..... Ha! over $25 (w/ the shipping) for the one on ebay! I feel like I got such a deal on this pointless thing! I'm such a sucker for old contraptions...

    SS Garden thread 2010, post your pics here!!

    I think my pics would be more of a discouragement, at least you can see what not to do....:P Here's the beginning of the season: little herb garden in the foreground, strawberries, blueberries, flowers in the smaller fenced-in area & veggies to go in the big area: A little way into the season...

    Anyone know what this is?

    I got this at a yard sale for $1.00 I know it's a press of some sort, but it looks too awkward to be used for citrus.....grapes maybe?

    singles site for farmers.....

    Says a lot to your credit that you saw the person underneath & the superficial stuff wasn't a big deal! I have to admit that when I was in Italy I would see beautiful girls very nicely dressed with big, bushy armpits and I found it a little disconcerting......:P

    singles site for farmers.....

    So I checked out the site and there are 3 guys in my area. 2 are a bit (way) too old for me and the last I already know & despite having a lot in common, well, I rather be poked in the face with a sharp stick. Looks like I'm safe and don't have to shave my legs for a while longer!

    How does Rabies factor into SS?

    My neighbors (all locals) agreed w/ my 'diagnoses' and told me the racoon was pretty far gone & would have died soon. I burned the body in the burn barrel, because burying or trashing in the county dumpster seemed like a bad idea. Did I do the right thing? Anyway, just wanted to show that even...

    How does Rabies factor into SS?

    I had a rabid racoon (I think). Even for a city girl, it was easy to see this thing had issues. It was 5 PM in August (broad daylight) I heard a weird hissing noise and looked up to see it 20 feet away and coming right for me. It was staggering a bit and it looked disoriented and glassy eyed. I...
