Thats cool. Nothing like having something with a lil family history behind it. Wonder if it has ever cracked someone over the head. Them ol ladies use to be tough back in the day...

True story.....she said a teenage boy came to the house when my uncles were younger (years ago) and said he was there to whip him (over a girl). The arguement got heated and he said he had a gun. She went back in the house, grabbed the fryer and chased back to his car where she smahed his windshield with it.

HAHA! Hizz, I knew it. HEHEHE!!! I got one almost identical to that one from my grandmaw. It stays on the stove. Fried bacon in it this morning. Its the perfect size. Bacon, eggs, bisquits, Begneits, fried fish, fried shrimp, cook a roux in it all the time. I swear, it stays on the stove, I clean it and keep it on the back burner. |
