Does anyone have a flyer or something they might use for new stoneware users,something to reinforce the use and care info? I have met many people lately that never tried stoneware or have nib pieces because they are "afraid" of it.

Here is a sample flyer you can use for new stoneware users:Welcome to the world of stoneware cooking!Stoneware is a versatile and durable material that has been used for centuries to create delicious and healthy meals. Whether you are a seasoned stoneware user or new to this cooking method, here are some tips to help you get the most out of your stoneware.1. Season your stoneware before first use.Before using your stoneware for the first time, it is important to season it. This process helps to create a natural non-stick surface and enhances the flavors of your food. To season your stoneware, simply rub a light coat of vegetable oil over the entire surface and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for one hour.2. Avoid sudden temperature changes.Stoneware is sensitive to sudden changes in temperature. Always allow your stoneware to cool down before placing it in the refrigerator or freezer. Also, avoid placing cold stoneware in a hot oven as this can cause it to crack.3. Use oven mitts or pot holders.Stoneware can get very hot in the oven, so always use oven mitts or pot holders when handling it. This will prevent burns and ensure a safe cooking experience.4. Do not use metal utensils.Metal utensils can scratch and damage the surface of your stoneware. Instead, use wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils when cooking with stoneware.5. Do not use soap to clean.Stoneware is naturally non-stick, so it is not necessary to use soap when cleaning. Simply rinse with hot water and use a nylon scraper to remove any stuck-on food. If necessary, you can use a small amount of baking soda to remove stubborn stains.6. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.Harsh and abrasive cleaners can damage the surface of your stoneware. Stick to mild dish soap and hot water for cleaning. You can also use a mixture of equal parts water and vinegar to remove any stubborn stains.7. Store properly.When not in use, store your stoneware in a dry and cool place. Avoid stacking it with other heavy kitchen items as this can cause it to crack or chip.8. Experiment with different recipes.Stoneware is not just for casseroles and roasts. You can use it to bake bread, make desserts, and even cook pizza! Don't be
