My Big Yummy Pot

Look what I got?!!! I'm beyond excited.

I finally got a Dutch Oven, I've been wanting one for so long! My husband (who's very mature and sophisticated) laughed himself to tears when I told him that is what it's called. I couldn't afford one of the real LeCreuset ones, but that's ok because when I went into Crate and Barrel they had this one and IT'S YELLOW!!

I'm not sure why I'm so very excited about it, but I just love it. In fact, when I was washing it before the first use, I said to my husband, "I just imagine our kids someday fighting over who gets Mom's big yellow pot." I know, very dramatic and sentimental over a pot. Very me.

I've already put it to good use. I've made Pot Roast, French Onion Soup and Beef Stew since I got it, less than a week ago.

It makes me, my kitchen and my hubbie's tummy very happy!

  2. We still giggle every time we use our dutch oven. We, too, (think we) are mature, but some things never get old.
