  • I was living above the 15th floor of a building in one of the poorer parts of NYC. I heard my bunny thump and run to the bathroom, and was really confused as he never acted that way.

    A few minutes later I see smoke pouring around the door frame and tons of fire trucks outside (I found out later it was a 5 alarm fire). Was sure I was gonna die, so I texted my ex (we were still close) that I loved her and then sat around calmly waiting for death. Eventually FDNY grabbed me out of my unit, and ran me downstairs. Two people across the hallway and someone in the unit above them died.




  • You’re right, acid is the enemy of seasoning, not soap. I do use soap on my cast iron sometimes, but mostly not because my normal method is to rinse and wipe the pan then put back on heat to dry and use the remaining oil to help keep the seasoning up and the soap would strip that thin layer.

    I wouldn’t have expected dishwashing detergent to be acidic which is why I expected it to not be so bad. Also I don’t mind fixing a seasoning every now and then so I’m still pretty tempted.
