My grandmother's kitchen knife is 70 years old.
My mother still uses it every day. It has been sharpened so many times, it's half the size it used to be.
In Japan, there's an old belief that if you use something long enough, it grows a soul.
Then my friend from Tennessee told me about his grandmother's cast iron skillet. Ninety years old. Never touched by soap. He said this the way some people talk about church.
So I want to know.
What's the oldest thing in your house that still gets used?
What is it, how old, and who did it belong to?
(Cast iron people, I know you're coming. Please be kind to each other.)
