Tip of the Day - One More Idea for Dear Old Dad
Posted on June 12, 2008 by

I just thought of this one last night while cooking dinner.
If your dad knows his way around a pancake, likes to mess around in the kitchen from time to time, or fry up eggs at the camp ground, how about getting him a cast iron pan?
We talked about cast iron a little while ago, and last night while making dinner, I had another “Man, I love this pan” moment. I think a cast iron pan would make a great gift. And there’s something nice about giving a gift that will have such a long life and can be enjoyed for years to come.
Add a box of organic pancake mix, or a bamboo cooking utensil set, and wrap it up in a dish towel.

Mmmm…pancakes with blueberries!
I’m hungry. I’m sorry.
This is actually a really good gift idea!
I have an old cast iron pan I inherited from my dad. He got it from the recycling center he managed until he died. He always called it, “the dump”. He was king of the re-users. And I love the pan, great suggestion Allie!
I’ve never seen a cast iron pan before.
(OMG those peppers look awesome.)
Love Love Love Pancakes!
