Get a room, you two!
(Making eggs in a non-stick pan.)
Sigh. I hate the weight of cast iron: I need to invest in some ceramics.

Check out Lodgeās carbon steel skillet! Iāve switched to that for everyday use and donāt envision ever buying non-stick again. Itās light and maneuverable, and with just a smidge of oil totally nonstick.

Thanks, Iāll give them a shot. My partner loves cast iron; I get to wash it after she cooks curried fishā¦
For me itās about over-easy eggs in the morning. Reviews suggest thereās a learning curve.

I donāt want to derail the topic, but what you say here is true. In my experience, preheating the pan and hitting it with a few shots with an oil sprayer (not Pam) ensures my omelettes all release beautifully.
To bring it around to 2020, it was this year that I bought the pan and have been really pleased. So, I guess itās not all bad? ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Edited because grammar.

Donāt tell Doc, but I use an insufficiently researched āceramicā skillet for that. Largely because I canāt justify the energy required to bring ten pounds of iron up to temp.

I cook over-easy eggs in a 25 year old black as pitch cast iron skillet that absolutely nothing sticks to. Yes, I add a smidge of butter, but, i mean, eggs without butter? Thatās just crazy talk!

I think this has been true for a while now, I feel like I read about it a couple of years ago.

The compromise, aides said, preserved Toomeyās goal but retained the Fedās existing powers to restart similar facilities in the future.
Could something be worse than having no Covid relief bill? Weāre about to find out, but not until Biden takes office.

Well, my father suddenly died on October 31. He was 80 and had developed a number of pesky health issues over the last years, but nothing that was considered anything close to life threatening. He went on a walk with his girlfriend and suddenly felt tired and sat himself under a tree and never got up again. Now that weāve buried him, I notice that the circumstances of his death (strong fatigue over weeks, then sudden heart death without pre-history) sound a lot like the long-term effects of Covid19. But itās very hard here, to get information about the post mortem examination, even for the closest relatives. A shit year indeed. Only two years ago, when I told friends about my father, I made a point how he at 78 was still far more fit and sporty than me at 39. Fuck you 2020, donāt let the door hit your ass on the way out.

And even then, I question two of these (3, 6). We are NOT ready for the next pandemic as long as individual rights are more important than keeping society safe. Also, while we know what may work to help ameliorate poverty, we canāt get our elected representatives to do anything about this.
I concur with you. God damn 2021 can go to hell.

I buy āAmerica is likely to be readier for the next pandemicā only because it is extremely hard to imagine how it could be less.

Iām sorry to hear about your loss. My father is 85, definitely frail now, but every day (weāre in āpodā) is a blessing for his four-year-old grandson.
