During his single years, Harry always spent the holidays with us, and he always made a happy fuss over my cornbread, which of course I make in a cast-iron skillet. (If you are making cornbread in anything other than a cast-iron skillet, stop right now.) I am not saying that good cornbread leads to marriage, but I’m not saying it doesn’t either. Win-win-win, actually, for a cast-iron skillet used is a cast-iron skillet made better. A cast-iron skillet addresses both problems, and I had three of them in my cupboard.
