People who have anemia have been advised to cook in cast iron pans, because food does absorb iron while cooking.
Also, people who have medical conditions that require limiting iron intake have been advised not to use cast iron for cooking. I used to work with a hematologist and we had a few...
These are the most recent statistics that we use in our Opioid Education classes:

2.51% of all deaths are from drug overdose.
OD deaths increased at an annual rate of 4.84% over the last 3 years.
The OD death rate is 26.9 deaths out of every 100,000...
I’ve probably mentioned it before on this thread, but several years ago the (then) two year old son of one of my good friends got E. Coli from organic spinach.
This was bagged organic spinach that was “triple washed and ready to eat.”
He was hospitalized for quite some time and nearly died...
Gasthof was just named the best buffet in Indiana on a national survey. Sorry I can’t find the article at the moment so no link but I will add link to the article when I find it.
I actually don’t care for paczki as much as a good jelly donut. I have tried many different variations of paczki and they are heavier and more greasy than a donut. But we are probably spoiled because we have some excellent Amish bakeries here that provide us with extremely light donuts that...
I loved Home Ec too, and at our school we had the cutest little mini kitchens set up. Each kitchen featured a different color scheme with a full size range, sink, a few cabinets and drawers, and counter space.
There was a central “shopping” area with a refrigerator and cubbies where we would...
I remember in 7th grade Home Ec class we were taught how to measure Crisco using the “water displacement” method. To measure one cup of Crisco we would use a two cup measuring cup, with one cup of cold water inside. Then we added small scoops of Crisco until the water reached the two cup mark...
A boy was critically injured on Sunday afternoon after a woman opened fire at a Christian megachurch in Houston led by Joel Osteen, the televangelist and pastor, the authorities said.
At just before 2 p.m., the woman, holding a rifle, wearing a trench coat and carrying a backpack, entered...
A woman in a trench coat armed with a long rifle – and accompanied by a young child – entered pastor Joel Osteen’s Lakewood Church on Sunday afternoon and began firing, Houston Police Chief Troy Finner said.
Two off-duty law enforcement officers – a Houston police officer and an agent with the...
I’ve had a few people refuse to share recipes over the years. I never understood it. I’m always happy to share my recipes. I think it is a compliment when someone likes a dish you made snd asks for the recipe.
This is the recipe. I always changed the pizza toppings depending on what I had on hand. We like diced red bell peppers, olives, sliced mushrooms, and diced onions on our pizza.
We’ve been on a pickled eggs kick. I’ve been using my mom’s recipe, made a big batch and shared with friends. Most of my friends had never had pickled beets and eggs before and they were surprised how easy they are to make.
We always have plenty of eggs because one of our friends has...
One of my favorite cookbooks I got as a teenager was a Borden cottage cheese cookbook. There were several simple recipes that I made regularly as a teenager.
I entered one of the recipes, Deep Dish Cottage Pizza, in a cooking competition. I was a finalist and got to participate in a...
I love old cookbooks. Most of my first cookbooks were free ones that I either collected labels and mailed in to get, or cookbooks that were wrapped in plastic and attached to grocery products, like the Wesson Oil cookbook. As a teenager I collected every free cookbook I could find.
My mom used Wesson Oil. In fact, I remember her using Wesson Oil for everything she fried.
One of my first cookbooks was a Wesson Oil cookbook that came free with a large bottle of Wesson Oil. I was probably around age 12 and I eagerly read every cookbook that came into our house cover to...
