I won't expect otherwise, simply figured if you didn't use them you may wish to sell them. However I understand the real value they have, cherish them for the love they contain...

I still have my skillets but they are at my ranch in Oklahoma. I might bring you one before Christmas as I will be traveling back and forth. I usually sale my calfs in October.. As you know they are quite heavy so about one at a time or maybe two is about all I would be able to manage. I think everyone should have a good skillet so it would be my Christmas gift to you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing I miss most here in Ajijic is good old home cooked fried chicken, Most of the people here will never know what a skillet of fried chicken tastes like. There is one or two places where the chicken is not too bad but not as good as home cooking. I hope you make gravy with the chicken leavings and home made biscuits. Now you've made me hungry I'll have to bring a skillet back with me next trip. I'll also bring one for Alpha1. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camillenparadise Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 Bless you! Grandma Nini had a small chicken n' egg business on the Galveston Highway in the 40's and 50's and we either grew, raised, or caught every single thing we ate... I thought we were rich because we had a cow, and Nini taught me to churn butter. My heart will always be in the garden.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamenting about fried chicken that was last seen here when they killed the last unicorn. (if it was ever here) Indeed!!! Indeed!!! Indeed!!! Maybe it will return with the second coming along with real Irish pub fish and chips. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pappysmarket Posted August 11, 2019 Report Share Posted August 11, 2019 The popular brand of popcorn, Act II, was preceded by Act I—a product notable because it was made with real butter and required refrigeration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
