I am a bit later getting this posted today (Friday) Last night I discovered my Voyage Kindle has "died" This is about 6 years old but was hoping it would last for closer to 10 years. This was quite the money splurge for me at the time. This was the better one of the kindles and did not need wifi to download books which is what I needed since we never had wifi at the woods house. They are no longer making this model. The screen had froze I tried the suggestions over several hours and again this morning-still froze. Then I realized the battery was no longer keeping a charge. So reading about the batteries they do have them to buy, but what I have read these kindles are not really meant to be taken apart and if you do decide to replace-must be super careful. So I am bummed about this. Any of you replace a kindle battery with success, or able to unfreeze the screen?
Last night before I realized this about my kindle, I was searching for a weaving bench for my loom. My body just can't sit on the old milk can any more. I was in allot of pain after I finished up the shawl. I found one that I like-expensive but not as much so as some. I decided this morning to buy one from a shop on etsy located in California (she was very helpful) and put the kindle on hold for now. I will just read on my desk top computer for now-which is not very comfortable but I have several hard cover books I need to catch up on this summer.
Now for cast iron-I thought I would share cornbread baked in cast iron-which is sooo good.
Here is a link to all things cast iron cornbread from Lodge This includes cornbread festivals and the recipes below
photos from the Lodge site-those recipe links came with the photos but they do not work-sorry-They should be listed in the link above or I set up a link under the photos
Those cast iron cornbread wedge pans, their fish shaped cast iron pan, or a square or round cast iron skillet are excellent for cornbread
and here is a video of chili in your Dutch oven and cornbead baked in the wedge pan, I am surprised this cornbread baked the way he did this- My Mom made just about everything from scratch ( I still do too) but she always had those boxes of Jiffy cornbread in the cabinet-I had to smile as that is what he was using in the video
Happy Friday and Weekend everyone
