Thanks, bens mom.
Annie, the ones at BB&B are fine, but you have to be sure to season it before use and then it'll be like your grandmother's. 
nothin' like cornbread made in the skillet!

Cast iron pans are cast iron pans - and in order for one to be as good as gram's you have got to use it!!!
Season in between uses and don't be afraid to use it for anything and everything. As it ages and gets used it will look just as good as gram's pan!
I know people that use cast iron for everything from fried/scrambled eggs/omlettes, grilled cheese sandwiches, meats, stews, soups, breads, rolls, biscuits and desserts.
The more you use it - the better it will look!

I really like cornbread. I've never tried making it in a skillet before though. I'll have to try that. Thanks.
