A place of Chaos, magic, delightful delicacies and dishes, and sniping directed at idiots. Welcome to Cast Iron Chaos, a personal exploration of the fringes of belief and order. This is my personal page, where I indulge in pasttimes that capture my fancy, and hopefully encourage others to open their eyes, take chances, and see the world from a somewhat different perspective. This site will NOT be repeating the tired mantra, "Open your eyes, wake up sheeple, you are being lied to." Those words are bleated again and again by idiot conspiracy theorists. What's more, you see this nonsense in every forum in existence, regardless of what your interests are. How can there be conspiracy theorists in a hobby that should be as innocent and fun as cooking? That's easy, as there are closed-minded fools around you regardless what subject you are researching. I subscribe to the school of anti-censorship, of which the argument is follows: Expose it and laugh at it. By doing so, you demonstrate you are a better person than they are.

For the second day in a row, I passed out from exhaustion and slept like a rock. Then I woke up in the middle of the night, maybe about 1 am, as I do almost every night; and I fell back to sleep. Then, I had a very vivid dream about being in a house in the countryside, which I didn’t recognise. On the horizon a tornado had touched down, and was approaching us. I woke up because I had forgotten to turn off my weekday alarm on my phone, so I didn’t reach the point where the tornado actually hit. One of the first thoughts that came through my head was, why was I dreaming about a tornado? And then I realised: the place I am staying is right across the bay from Logan International Airport. There are low flying jets…big ones…passing over this house 24 hours a day. 😏

It’s been a very busy weekend, and it’s going to be a very busy week. On Saturday I spent all day slow cooking a pot roast for the wedding, and I’m pleased to say the guests there enjoyed it very much. I was so exhausted on Saturday night, I passed out and slept through until Sunday morning. And then, most of Sunday was spent driving with friends out of state. In fact, we drove into New England, and we spent the entire afternoon and evening driving through pelting rain, as the remains of hurricane Isaiah passed through. However, there were no incidents and we made it to our destination with no problem. Where are we? Salem, Massachusetts!

I’m going to be away from home until mid week, and then the end of the week I will be off on the road again, this time for work. This is the first work trip I’ve had in a couple of years. Because of all this, I won’t have much time to make videos. However, I do hope to be home on Wednesday for Cast Iron Wednesday.

The roast is in the cauldron and the coals are on! I was shocked to discover that after filling around with those extenders for the legs, I did not need them at all. When I placed the pot onto this steel coal table, it wobbled but hardly enough to lose its balance. It was more than sturdy enough to place coals all around the bottom.

It’s Banned Books Week, so I had to order a couple of banned books. I've given away three copies of “Gender Queer” so far, so I had to get another one. And I have never owned a copy of “A Clockwork Orange,” the novel before now. So, this was a good week to get it. I suspect people will be more angry about my owning a copy of “Gender Queer” than “A Clockwork Orange,” even though the acts committed in A Clockwork Orange are far more despicable.
