Tan, you were the one (and Cai too probably) that got me thinking about them. I remember the thread that you are talking about I think, and had to smile at Cai's reply. I think her instructions involved a car, your pot, and driving it to her house if I remember correctly?

The big one I have seen, I saw on sale for $369 (from 529), and its the round one. The cherry red (that's the colour!) risotto pot (6.2L also) is oval, and is $320 (not on sale). Plus $10 shipping from a place called kitchenwaredirect. They have some really lovely looking things....

Falguni, have a look at that site I mentioned just above.... I'm dreaming too..... ( La Creuset for Christmas, La Creuset for Christmas, La........ Think maybe if I'm good I'll get one?)

Oh Tan, also... Does it seem very heavy? Especially when its full of food, or you're taking it in/out of the oven? I'm not weak, but when I'm old I might not like it. I know, when I am too old and decrepit to lift it, I'll give it to Steph. If she's anything like me, she'll want it before then anyway!
