Conversation 25

The two pans are made well. When you look at them they are totally different from any other pan that food des not stick to. However, these are made in China and I did do some more exploring and asked tons of questions. Seems for now, most or all of the Hex Clad pots and pans are made in China. I checked my All Clad pots and pans and they are made in the USA, however these are all stainless steel. All Clad does use China, Germany and the United States for manufacturing and they do have the Hex Clad, but the price is out of sight.

According to what I have read, these pans can go into an oven up to 500 degrees. I’m not sure if I would trust these pans in 500 degree temps. People should be aware that the oven sometimes cooks at a higher temp. Safe to say 350 to maybe 400 would be OK. . Also, though the manufacturer says they are dishwasher safe, I would still wash by hand since most detergents are really harsh on any coating including stainless steel. I discarded all pots and pans that discolored or had pit marks as a result of using the dishwasher. The detergent used in the dishwasher is not the same as the one you use in cleaning by hand. I will be keeping these pans. Totally different from the ones purchased from Curtis Stone and is no where like the old Teflon either. It does not have the same surface as other pans I own. Cannot wait to give them a try since I enjoy stir frying.

I hope this has helped in some way. I will be picking up some freshly caught fish and will let you know how that comes out. I usually make my fish stove top. That’s so I do not over cook it. Different taste when it has not been frozen. Very sweet and moist.

@shoelady60,

Good evening just relax and rest. I love the Fawn in your yard. So glad it was safe. 💕

Glad you had a great day OZ is cooling off and it feels great. 😎💕

@oodiebom,

Glad you had a good time at Costco. 😎🎈Oodie so much better someone was handy
to help with the lifting.

I hope your day is going well. Oz is in the 50’s with a beautiful moon tomorrow we have
rain all weekend off and on.

No worries I have plenty to keep busy. 😎

Nancy Sinatra Lyrics
“You Only Live Twice”

You only live twice or so it seems
One life for yourself and one for your dreams
You drift through the years and life seems tame
Till one dream appears and love is it’s name

And love is a stranger who’ll beckon you on
Don’t think of the danger or the stranger is gone

This dream is for you, so pay the price
Make one dream come true, you only live twice

And love is a stranger who’ll beckon you on
Don’t think of the danger or the stranger is gone

This dream is for you, so pay the price
Make one dream come true, you only live twice

Peace Out Peeps enjoy your evening.

@taci,

Good evening I am so sorry I think your post went poof earlier.

Taci I hope you are feeling better and your cold is one and done.

Let me know how it is going and welcome to the new thread. Taci this is number 25.
I have had some threads that ran for over two years. LOL! I should have around 100 threads
just for Conversation and that is not counting all the others I have done in the Community.

Hey Happy Trails my friend. 😎🎈

This is my evening with hubby and be on the look out for the moon I did mentioned
that yesterday on the other thread. 💕Waving…

@sheba2011

I did look yesterday and saw that it was messed up so didn’t post, not knowing where it would end up. This has been happening more frequently than years before.🤪

Very nice day, no rain for a change. Same tomorrow but hit or miss for the weekend. Just got home from an early dinner with friends so now I feel full and lazy.🥴 Plan to stop at mom’s tomorrow for a couple hours.

Hope your husband has a long weekend and you two can take it easy for a change. We always seem to be running here and there.🏃‍♀️ Yesterday I had a doe jump into my yard and decide to take it easy. She laid down for 3 hours. I didn’t want to scare her so stayed inside and kept watch through the door and window. Saw the baby fawn when she left. It couldn’t have been more than a week or two old.🥰

Hugs to you, Poppy and the kitties.🤗💖

@taci

I’m on my way out the door, however, I wanted to let you know that I received the pans last night from the TS. I will let you know when I return what I think of them. Howver, there have been many articles written on the new Hex Clad on MSN. com.. Sounds like people are giving them a 5 star review. Of course it depends on the manufacturer.

I made it to Costco yesterday and had a great time looking around and such. I did manage to put purchase the water I so desperately needed. A nice gentleman came by as I opened the trunk and put them inside for me. Thank goodness I didn’t need to lift them. Also, I picked up a crunchy salad which is absolutely delicious. It comes with the dressing. Don’t laugh, I had some for breakfast. On the way to see Hubby I picked up vanilla custard and chocolate decadent which was the feature one for the day. Both with hot fudge. I don’t know what made hubby so happy, the ice cream or seeing me. The aid kidded him on getting the fudge on his shirt and on the sheet. Guess both wanted a taste (LOL).

I left early and had a beautiful sky with the moon. The moon was full and it emanating the clouds all around. It was very similar to one of your pictures on this thread. It had some yellows and whites. Loved it.

When I arrived home my plants had arrived along with a package that I assumed was from HSN. The plants are beautiful and the flowers gorgeous. Full bush for both and cannot wait to plant them. I picked up two huge planters from Sam’s Club in a lapis color. I was hoping for teal, but took what I could. The planters are a little large for these plants, however, if we get a bad storm during the hurricane season, the soil should hold them down. If I’m here, will bring them into the lanai prior to any storm. And speaking of packages, received one that I assumed was HSN. I don’t recall purchasing clothing, but opened it and found something that was not my taste. Looked at the label which took some time. It was from the Q and belongs to a neighbor on another street. I will drop it off with a note on my way to see hubby.

I see there is someone else having problems signing in. I think anyone who has been in the Arcade lately, should definitely check their virus software. I just have a funny feeling on this one. For once, I hope I am wrong.

@kittengirl,

Good morning Kitten wishing you a nice Thursday. 😎🎈

@shoelady60,

Good morning in the ‘burgh. Yeah I had to start a new thread. No biggie I’ve been doing
this for ten years. I can do it in my sleep. I am not in competition with anyone and never
have been. I like what I do because it all comes from my head. LOL! 😎🎈

This thread is not for everyone and it never has been people like to look and I know
this for sure. 😎🎈I wish for one thing that we had the HSN private message I miss
that feature. My reason is not to talk about others but to say something I don’t want
others to read due to privacy. I hope I said that right. LOL!

Hey friend wishing you a cool day and I know you are doing things.

Sending cool vibes to you and Jake. 😎💕
