We've been using plain old olive oil for years. About once a year, the (clean, dry) pan gets a nice layer of olive oil rubbed all over the inside, baked in a 350F oven for about an hour, then we turn off the oven and let it sit to cool overnight. In the morning, wipe out the excess and voila - seasoned pan!

@Rachel, I'm sure any edible oil will work.

Love, love, love these ideas. We've got 3 kids, soon to be four, and are looking to rearrange our current set-up in time for the newest. What we'll probably be doing is bunk beds with a trundle for the oldest 3; having only the footprint of a single bed is a tremendous space-saver!

@ Greenwoodgal, I had to giggle at your comment. We're a family of 5 living in a one-bedroom apartment in Chicago. We currently have a family bedroom (by choice), so my husband & I DO share a room with 3 other little people full time, and we all love it.
