You know, that got me to thinking...

My grandparents were farmers. And grandad had quite the shop in his barn.

Delighted us kids. We got into all kinds of mischief there.

He might very well have done that to grandma’s pan.

I hadn’t thought of that. Spiders are good for cooking on a campfire, but the legs are a disadvantage when cooking on a stove. Your grandad might indeed have ground the legs off your grandma’s spider for that reason.

I’ve often wondered who ended up with my grandma’s skillet after she passed in 2008, just shy of her 100th birthday.
