His new cast iron skillet.

Boy oh boy has he been waiting for this day. Casey has been longing for his own cast iron skillet for a long time now. This weekend he finally got one. He thoroughly researched how to properly “season” the pan and can’t wait to cook his eggs and meat in it. He sanded down the inside surface of the metal today to make it super smooth. Then began the repetitive seasoning process of heating it in the oven and adding flax seed oil to make a non-stick surface.

Embarrassing side note: I have been told by his mother that he used to sleep with odd items like hammers, pans, and other tools when he was young. I think he would bring this skillet to bed with him if he could. 🙂
