Honestly, that leaky valve situation is why I ditched propane for good. The rubber seals just dry out and crack if you don't use the stove for a few months. I switched to a simple white gas stove and it's been way less fussy on long drives.

Setting up a trust for an iguana just feels like overkill. It's a lizard, not a kid. I get wanting to provide for a pet, but that's a lot of legal work for an animal that might not even outlive you. Couldn't you just leave some cash to a friend with clear instructions? Seems like making a simple thing way too serious.

Been there! Those recipes are so hit or miss. I stick to the box instructions now, way less stress.

Ugh, that vanishing act is so common now. I see it everywhere, from contractors not calling back to companies just leaving you hanging. It really makes you lose trust in the whole process.

Totally agree, @lindahunt. Transparency is everything!
