Why has my sex drive has been gone recently and how do I get it back?
Recently ever since I got this new job as a cook my sex drive has plummeted. I'm young (only 19 years old), and it's unusual because I usually have a pretty high sex drive. But now it's almost nothing and it's really starting to affect me. My new job isn't really high stress or anything but it is pretty much semi physical labor. Could that be the reason it's so low? I don't want a pill or anything, but I just want it to go back to normal soon. What can I do?
Well you have to figure out what's causing the problem, untill you figure that out you can't exactly fix it can you?
By the way anyone that says being a cook isn't stressfull is lying out their butt! The food industry is one of the most stressful jobs to have. lol It's highly demanding.
I imagine it's stress, maybe long work hours, lack of sleep or change of sleep pattern due to a new schedual etc. You can be very stressed without even taking the time to realize it.

Uneven cooking in cast iron skillet?
I recently purchased a cast iron skillet. I've seasoned it according to the directions and have used it about half a dozen times. It's great for foods that can be stirred, like scrambled eggs.
However, when I cook something that can't be stirred--such as pancakes or quesadillas--the food in the center of the pan burns, while the food near the edges remains undercooked. I thought that even heating was an advantage of cast iron cookware, so I'm baffled. I've tried using low heat, high heat, more oil, less oil; none of that helps. My spouse is about to toss the new skillet and go back to the nonstick. Any ideas?
Thanks for all the help! I'm using a gas stove, and the burner grate is level. I've preheated the pan, even to the point where the oil smokes, then backed off the heat.
If I fry fish in cast iron, will the fishy taste stay in the pan?
Even heating is not the strong suit of cast iron. Iron is a relatively poor conductor of heat compared to aluminum or copper. That's why high end cookware like All-Clad have aluminum cores. What you've described is normal for cast iron.
That being said don't cast out the iron. Cast iron really excels at producing excellent browned crusts on things like fish, chicken, and steaks. Not a week goes by when one of my much cherished cast iron pieces sees such duty.
Cast iron is also great for deep frying, because it is good at holding heat and it's weight helps make the pan sit very securely on the burner. For pancakes I use a cast aluminum griddle.
You need to look at cast iron as a pan for filling specific needs (searing steaks, making great home fries), rather than an all-purpose tool. There are some things (like quesadillas, scrambled eggs, and pancakes) that your aluminum non-stick is better suited for.
