We had chicken potpie.

I don't think I'd pour it in the drain either,my cousin said he'd pour it around trees ,not a flower bed as it might be too much lye,But ashes from your fire place is basically just potash and they are good for flowers or trees.Old timers use to bury a can of potash under a pecan tree and as it deteriorates it leeches in soil for abundant pecans.
My husbands grandfather one time had a commode stopped up and he over did the red devil lye poured 2 cans in it and he said it started smoking and cracked the commode with an explosion.He said his Daddy told him don't do it but he was hard headed lol.

BakerAunt I talked with my cousin who use to collect iron wares and he said if you have rust to soak the pan in white vinegar and water for a little while then scrub and recondition,for heavy build up to soak in a mixture of red devil lye in a plastic container because it's caustic like the heavy rubbermaid containers for several days,for 5-10 gallons of water use about a can or 2 and you can't get it on your skin,use rubber gloves to get out of container,he said he'd soak several pans for a week or more,check them and scrub and replace them till it took all grime back to new condition,he said never put them in a fire.Just wanted to share what he said.

[Joan Simpson]

left overs here too,soup and sandwich.

[Joan Simpson]

Taco salad here tonight.

[Joan Simpson]

Tonight we had soup and sandwiches again...using them left overs up.
