Burnt Milk Test/Orgreenic Ceramic Pan

Since purchasing the Orgreenic ceramic pots and pans many people have inquired about my usage and if I like them. We got them in February and use them almost every day unless we just make a sandwich. I still can’t fry an egg without a touch of oil like they did in the infomercial, but that’s really not a deal breaker for us.

I’ve had no problem with de-glazing, I’ve cooked with wine and beer, I’ve made spaghetti sauce, baked cornbread in the oven, plus numerous other recipes and the cleanup is the easiest I’ve ever had. You’re not suppose to put them in your dishwasher, but they clean up so easy it really doesn’t matter to me. I never use metal utensils with them and the little food chopper works okay, but I prefer our Pampered Chef one it’s easier to clean.

There are many different brands of ceramic cookware out there, but Bill is a sucker for infomercials. The Orgreenic ceramic cookware is made in China and I have read warnings about lead leaching into food from products made in China and Mexico. We took a chance that this was a superior product that had been fired right. Besides they have a lifetime guarantee not a year or 10 like some others we saw and we could send them back within 30 days if we didn’t like them.

This is not flimsy ceramic cookware, it seems to be very well crafted with a nice weight to it. I watched a video online of a chef doing a burnt milk test on a Safepan and the burnt milk rolled right out. Monkey see monkey do, the milk I used wasn’t as heavy as the milk he used and I left mine on way to long because I got sidetracked.

I waited for Bill to go to the store before I decided to ruin his pan or rather conduct my test and my results are below. Yes, I know I’m nuts, but I wanted to see what my Orgreenic pan would do. I was surprised when I was able to roll part of it out because mine really got burnt on not like the video I watched so I thought for sure I had just ruined that pan.

I had to use my spatula to loosen the worse part and was amazed when I took a wet paper towel and cleaned out the rest. If nothing else the clean up is by far the easiest I’ve ever had. When the milk burnt there was barely any smoke and if there had been no burnt smell Bill would have never known that I had conducted my burnt milk test on his Orgreenic ceramic pan. Yes, we still like them.

Over the past 7 years I have become semi reclusive, I’m perfectly happy not talking to anyone, but Bill. I don’t like hanging with the “girls” and when I see someone from the past when I’m out I usually turn the other way so I don’t have to talk to them unless they chase me down. Bill is totally opposite and loves to talk to everyone and it seems like he knows everyone.

I have many acquaintances and people I know, but I don’t do best friends anymore except Bill, but that’s different. I’ve actually had 1 best friend and 3 semi best friends in my life at different stages, these females I shared most of my thoughts, dreams, and secrets with and they with me. It makes you very vulnerable and more susceptible to pain when you put yourself out there and trust.

It’s hard when you lose those friendships for whatever reason and it makes you a lot less likely to trust. The first best friend I ever had was when I lived in an orphanage and in the 8th grade she took my boyfriend away. Well, not actually we had already broken up, but I thought we would get back together, but she decided to get in the middle so we were no longer best friends.

At least that experience was at a young age and taught me a lesson so the other 3 were more like semi-best friends with a lot less trust. I’m too old to play mind games and I really don’t like getting caught up in drama so I’m perfectly happy not participating these days. When I was younger I did enjoy going out and socializing, but now it’s too hard to make small talk with people. Thank God Bill’s good at it so I can just listen.

Yesterday I added a plugin to cache my pages so it would load faster because Google said my blog was loading slow. Apparently I didn’t have the right php for the plugin to work. So when I tried to check my plugin list and delete it, it wouldn’t let me in.

It said there was a fatal error and I almost panicked till I remembered something I had read on that plugin so I went to my C panel at Bluehost and clicked on the  PHP Configuration and switched that to PHP5 (FastCGI) and tried to get in again still it gave me the fatal error.

Okay, then I panicked wondering what the heck I was suppose to do, was I suppose to contact my server? I made myself calm down and remembered I had a problem like this last year and tried to remember what I did.

The answer was so simple, all I had to do was start up my FTP program and go in and just delete that plugin, but then I couldn’t log in because Bluehost had made me change my password awhile back and I forgot to change that in my FTP  program.

Yes, I did start to panic again, I’m fricking mature and yesterday I felt senile because it took me so long to remember about that stupid password change. Since  my browser stored my password for Bluehost when I changed it I forgot to write it down at any rate they sent me my password and I got it fixed.

Why am I rambling on? Just thought other users that use FTP and have a blog they mess up with a plug-in can easily fix the problem instead of panicking by going in with their FTP, find the file and delete it and problem solved except I’m still slow, oh well thanks for your time.

I always get the mail and lay it on the table for Bill, Friday when he got home he looked through it and opened this one from CA and wondered who he knew from there. It was personally marked to him and not occupant or current resident. If you get mail from the following address get rid of it especially if you have kids.

Neither Bill or I are prudes, but we certainly weren’t expecting to get a porn brochure through the regular mail. It had a WARNING cover that was folded over it, but the brochure fell out before it could be read and I thought dang what if one of the Grandkids had been here.

Below you can read what was printed on the warning if you click to make it larger and it says you must be 18 to open this material. Well, they should have put that on the outside of the envelope and at least give people a warning.

When Bill goes to swap meets he sometimes fills things out and I think his info was sold and he is probably on lots of spam mailing lists now so we will certainly be more careful in the future. He doesn’t use the Internet so I know it wasn’t from there.

Sometimes I don’t understand how a man’s mind works. He figured since he saw the dirty pics if he got frisky later I would say it was because of those. He’s always frisky so that option would never have crossed my mind.
