I would assume the inside is similar to Le Creuset?

I sympathize since you have higher humidity with that 92 degrees. We
haven't had a day since last week that was under 110 degrees, but our
humidity isn't nearly as high. My driving time to and from work varies
between 45-60 minutes each way, but I'm used to it.

That had to be quite a "scene". :-) Sorry you hurt yourself in the
process. David has habit in the kitchen that I cannot break. Whenever he
washes his hands at the sink, he will/does not reach for either the hand
towel or paper towels which are easily within reach. Instead, he flings
and flicks the water off his hands. This drives me nuts, especially since
there are so many things in the surrounding area that get hit. It's only
water, yes, but it makes spots.

Unless you have a gun collection stored elsewhere, the kitchen probably
contains the largest number of potentially lethal weapons you own.
