Most of our cast iron is from yard sales. Lodge even makes a huge cast iron wok. It comes pre-seasoned that way, too. If it is rough inside then it can be sanded smooth and re-seasoned. The new cast iron seems very roughly made.
Just put a couple loaves of egg bread in the oven. It's egg bread because the girls are laying again and we have a lot of eggs all of a sudden. No real recipe, just warm water with a couple spoonfuls of yeast, some white sugar (frequently I use molasses instead), three eggs, a bit of oil, a dash of cinnamon and flour. Basic white egg bread.
For a crusty crust some folks recommend putting a pan of water in the stove while baking the bread and spritzing the oven with water as well.
