Kids and non-stick cookware



Recommended Posts

Dang it, brand new calphalon non-stick pan ruined by a 16 year old who won't realize when dad hides a pan in the back of the cabinate he doesn't want you to use it. It means you need to wash your other pans.

Instead she treats it like cast Iron, cranks up the stove to 11 and stinks up the whole house. ARRRG. Can't dad have a nice non-stick all to himself.

OK, I'll be quiet now.

Ha! My children are in their 20s and they still do stuff like that. The really awesome part is that they know that non stick pans can't go in the dishwasher (shortens their lives immensely) so they make a big nasty pile of them for me to wash in the sink! Apparently, nonstick pans require a "mother's touch"!

Your 16 year old cooks? Without a microwave?

Celebrate man, I'm a high school teacher and, as Jess suggested, a 16 year old who cooks for himself is gold. AND he's legal to earn money to replace the pan - go for the anodized aluminum while you've got someone else buying :)

Ha ha ha, this is so funny. I didn't purchase new pans until the last one moved out.

new calphalon non-stick pan ruined by a 16 year old

@@OKCPirate

:lol:

wayyyyyy back when my daughter was 16, she wouldn't even touch a frying pan

i think it scared her :D

she was helping me "once" LOL in the kitchen

couldn't clean this one mess on the counter

i told her to use some elbow grease

she said, "where's/what's that?" :D

my hubby used to eat my baby bel cheese :o

i would "remind" him please don't do that

later, i put a sign on it - saying DO NOT TOUCH :huh:

he finally got the message - no problem since then :rolleyes:

do the same thing with your pans or other things you want ONLY for you :rolleyes:

make a WARNING sign!!!

threaten her with death or worse!! :wacko: ;)

great weight loss

keep up the good work :)

good luck

Oops turning on the burner on high

And trying to cook... And failing... And leaving it for me... They were house sitting.

Thanks. Now I don't feel like it is just me and my kids.... Universal ...

My 15 year old son cooks and has been for years. It's simple meals but he's and excellent cook.

My sympathies! Back when I worked retail, I used my employee discount to buy my parents a few really good anodized aluminum non-stick pans, since all of their pans were old and not in the best shape. Of course, even though I told them how to care for them, the first time my dad used one, he cleaned it with a steel wool scrubbie. I was not happy because I've always felt that if someone gives you something nice or expensive, you take care of it properly (at least when they're watching).

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
