M5, I am generally against secret santa exchanges since last year's disaster(s) with the craft and ornament exchanges, as Kooger will probably agree. HOWEVER, limiting it just to our group who by now know each other well might be FUN, and successful. I'd think everyone would send out their obligation, and everyone would post what they got. Afterall, we all have become friends! Wanna handle it?

My Calphalon pan is the old anodized aluminum, not teflon. Years ago I burned another pan (or maybe the same one!) and after a couple of weeks of soaking it, it cleaned up.

I have no teflon in the house. Well, that's a lie. I do have one LARGE skillet I use maybe once a year, and I'm careful with it. Don't have birds, but it's as bad for us if overheated.

I used to have a Le Cruset set of pots and pans. The enamel eventually cracked and started chipping away (novice cook in those days) so I trashed them. I do have a black special edition Le Cruset pot I've had a long time and seldom use.
