When we talk about houses together, we say town if it’s small and city if it’s bigger. But if those houses are organized in a somewhat chaotic way, you might hear about a slum or a shantytown.

Today, I want to talk about something I use every day in my kitchen—my cast iron skillet.

A long time ago, I used different pans for cooking. Some were good, but they didn’t last long. Some had a nonstick surface, but after some time, it was gone. And some just didn’t cook food the way I liked.

Have you ever wondered how to find more time to do something? I ask myself that all the time. In fact, I think time runs away from me, and I don't have time to chase it.

The truth is time flies. And it flies for everyone. We always have something to do in today's society, and there is never time for anything. But don't despair. Even in these circumstances, you can find a good strategy to learn English.
