Single folks get a 4 pack of pork chops and a package of mushrooms then eat them back to back nights. Sometimes.
As for the carbon steel skillet, I really like it, but like cast iron, you can't throw it in the dishwasher and you don't want it to stay wet, so I use it for everything but eggs :) It heats up faster and cools down quicker than cast iron, its a little lighter than cast iron, and its non-stick like cast iron if you use butter or oil. I think it works better on an electric stove than cast iron, but I wouldn't doubt if cast iron worked better on gas.
The Lodge carbon steel skillet and handle cover I have are on my Amazon kitchen idea list. Thanks!
