My grandmother passed away a few years ago and I now have all of her cast iron skillets. I use them all the time and I like the fact that they are already broke in.

I have some iron cookware that has been passed down through the generations, as well. I'll tell ya, they sure don't make the iron pots like they used to! But, then again, I don't think that many stoves can handle the super heavy weight cookware. Not electric stoves, anyway.

My grandmother has several really old cast iron skillets. She will only cook in those, most of the time.

For some reason, things always come out tasting better. She uses them for breakfasts--fried potatoes, eggs, bacon, pancakes. Grilled sandwiches are the best too!
