@VeroniqueB99 I have made all of the suggested changes. I find I have difficulty keeping food from sticking to my good quality stainless steel frying pans, no matter what technique I use. I have well seasoned cast iron skillets that work well for most foods.
I have seen titanium pans advertised as non-stick, and am considering buying one. They can be a bit pricey. Wondering if anyone here has tried titanium?

Just learned that folk singer Todd Snider died last week. I became aware of his protest songs during the Bush/Cheney war on Iraq. His sharp critiques and humor will be missed. Gone too soon at 59.

What this article doesn't say is that the US Postal Service was never meant to be a "business". It's a SERVICE. Republicans have been undermining that service since the Bush administration in 2006. They want desperately to privatize it. It's part of Project 2025.

In Biblical times no one wore pants. No one! Men and women alike wore robes and skirts. Religions just make this stuff up as they go along.
