I think they were issued to new housewives in the late 50's. Look at what they had at the time. My mom has a cast iron chicken cooker that's around 100 years old. Very functional but not exactly pretty. They may have had clay pots they could use but I suspect most of them were pretty plain. By the 50's and 60's people had a bit more money and wanted something that looked good on the table and when combined with the newer glass products that could take oven heat without danger of cracking, everybody had to have it. Corning knew they had a winner on their hands and they were right. The funny thing is they are now making cast iron with a bright porcelain finish. If I didn't already have a couple of cast iron pans, I would get one. |

Here's a recipe for XMAS... Grinch Kabobs! - Light holiday snack - it'll make your heart grow 3 sizes... but not your belly... Skewer Grapes, Sliced Bananas, Strawberries, and a Small Marshmallow - dust with powdered sugar to make them "snowy". Great for that last minute holiday party you forgot about until now. http://myfridgefood.com/recipes/snacks/grinch-kabobs/ The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

...Made me think, what about slipping the odd one made with chillies instead of the grape and strawberry into the bowl. I can just picture Great Aunt Maude's face as she tucks into her 43 "Sweet little Santa" fruit on a stick, and finds this one is not as sweet as she expected. Or is that just the naughty school boy in me escaping again? Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

Or is that just the naughty school boy in me escaping again? Fruit and peppers are perfect together:) Boil some greenpeppars in cream. Sprincle that on the strawberries. I haven't tried jalapeno but its seems like a very good idea. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_pepper#Green_pepper |

Actually Vic, jalapeno peppers are pretty low down on the Scoville Scale, relatively speaking. Scoville Scale The heat in any chili pepper lies primarily in the seeds and pepper ribs. If you enjoy the flavor of a particular type of chili but want to go easy on the heat, just remove some or all of the seeds or ribs. |
