I got a great frying pan for my wedding that I thought would be one I could use for a very long time. The girl that bought it for me told me that it had a warranty on it, so I thought it would be around for at least ten years. It was not three years into my marriage that the frying pan that should have lasted began to act up. The coating was coming up, and even thought I took good care of it, and everything was sticking. I was disappointed, as you can imagine.

I am personally going to make a map of all the restaurants in the eastern Iowa tourism region of the state as I seem to be spending a lot of my time there. My desire first started when a girlfriend of mine in the area started taking me out to eat to repay me for chores that I had done for her. I did a lot of chores so there were a lot of meals. She doesn’t like to take the time to cook so the restaurant idea was launched. We only went to the same restaurant once every other meal was at a different place. The funny thing was that we would start to run into the same people in different establishments. Then I found out one of the things she did was to read the local attractions section of the paper. She would read about a place with a good review and want to go check it out. Apparently there were several other couples in the area doing the same thing. Most of these restaurants were recently opened and it seems that is one of the best ways to get your initial business. You call up the local paper and offer their food critic a free meal in exchange for a review.

I was looking for a good place to get some quality food in the state so I contacted the Central Iowa Tourism Center and they told me about the Amana Colonies. These people are known for doing things the old fashioned way with no electricity or motorized anything. This creates a challenge in that the stoves are all wood fired and someone has to get the wood. Without using a chainsaw, because a chainsaw is powered, them men and boys hitch their horses to a wagon, grab a hand saw, and head off for the wooded area near by. Dad usually does the heavy cutting and the boys do the hauling and stacking of the wood into the wagon. You have to remember that the wood needs to age a year, so that means that they are working on next years supply. When the day is almost finished they drive the team of horses back up to the farmyard and unload. Over the next few months everyone in the family takes their turn at splitting and stacking next year’s heat. The use of this wood in the cooking gives the food a wonderful smoky flavor that just can’t be found when other means of heat are used.
