When my husband and I were first married, I had a very limited selection
of cookware, including a lovely 10-inch cast-iron frying pan I'd picked up
at a tag sale somewhere. We were teaching him to fry bacon (so I could
work on the rest of brunch), and the first time the bacon fat needed to be
drained off, I picked up the pan in one hand and dumped the grease into
the official grease-collecting soup can. The next time this needed to
happen, my DH tried to do as I had done, ended up using both hands to hold
the pan, and, looking at me very seriously, said "Remind me never to get
you angry." :-)

nice lightweight Farberware to fry bacon)
