Actually, that's not what I meant. I paid US$187.00 for my dutch oven ;-)
and I am not sorry...

Nor would I be. In addition to my heavy SS cookware, I have a huge
collection of Le Creuset. Luckily I bought it years ago for a mere
pittance compared to today's prices. I don't think I could afford them
today, but they're worth every penny.

Yup, my DO is Le Creuset - I use it at least twice a week. I also got rid
of anything that wasn't good quality SS - which can also be pricey, but
very much worth it. I actually 'built-up' my collection of SS cookware
over time..


I am just amazed at all the hi-tech stuff that is available these days
for
the kitchen. I thought my MW was 'fancy' LOL!


Some of the "gadgets" on the market today are pretty amazing. I bought
a wireless probe thermometer last year when my other wired-probe unit
died. What I like most is that it can signal you remotely no matter
where you are in the house or yard.

Yup, truly amazing! I don't own a probe (hi-tech or otherwise) but for
some stuff it must come in very useful. Heh. When I buy our Christmas
turkey they sell them here with a 'throw-away' probe stuck in it... it
'pops out' when the internal temp is what it should be. Turkey always
comes out just right.
