[blparent] What kind of stove do yuou have?

[Allie]

Why can't you cook with cast iron on your mom's stove?

-- Allie

A smile costs nothing but gives much.  It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who 
give.  It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.  None is so rich or 
mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. 
Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value 
to anyone until it is given away.  Some people are too tired to give you a smile.  Give them one of 
yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

My mom has a flat top stove and loves it. Only thing is you can't cook with
cast iron on it, at least not her's and it's a Kenmore from Sears. As for
feeling the burners, just go looking around. Different brands are different.
I looked at a Kitchenaid and the burners were rough while the rest of the
surface was smooth. Some brands the burners are very distinct, but others
are not. One good thing is with a flat top, you don't have to worry about
cleaning under the caps and dropping things down in them like I'm always
doing. Just a few thoughts and sorry if I repeted something someone else
said.
