    OK book for reading

    O purchased this book to give me some good ideas for cooking in my new cast iron skillets. It tells you how to take care of the skillets, but no pictures. I would like some ideas on what the foo looks like Thanksfully I ordered another book which is more helpful in using the skillets.
