What? It was just an inkling. A small suggestion. A Modest Proposal, perhaps.

:joy:. Indeed.

That’s a Chilly Willy!

I used to work for a printing company. You’d think I would be a better proofreader.

Where I grew up Jaguar was always two syllables, “jag-war”. It wasn’t until I started working in a multinational company (esp the Brits) (edit, and about the same time as I started listening to David Attenborough). until I got used to hearing it as three syllables, “jag-you-arr”.

I was practically raised in one: my dad bought his first one six weeks after I was born, and I inherited it when he passed.

Yahoo “Lifestyle” has an article up about how you might be washing your cast iron skillet wrong. I clicked on it just to see what kind of nonsense might be forthcoming.

It includes the following:

  • Cast iron is forged from steel and iron.

There’s a reason it’s called cast and iron. It’s because it’s CAST, not forged, and because it is a cast of molten IRON, not steel and iron.

They also recommend the one thick baked on layer method for seasoning, and say that if you use soap to wash, you’ll have to re-season.
