Don't laugh but I am so thrilled with my new pan.... For the past couple of years, I have been squeezing turkeys or hams into a much smaller pan and quite frankly it was becoming discouraging. As it is, I'm like the "World's Worst" Cook but anything like turkey, roasting chickens and pot roast that I can cook in a McCormick's bag, I can actually throw down a good meal however after squeezing them into that small pan, they weren't very pretty to look at! Anyways, what makes me so thrilled about this pan besides how beautiful it is brand spankin' new is that it was $10.99 at AC Moore BUT with my 40% off coupon, LOL (yes I used my coupon on this so I know I'm a very strange lady) the final price for this beauty was $5.59..... I was SO proud of myself when I got into the car but my husband just didn't see the joy of it and the first thing that he said was, "why are you buying pans when we need to worry about Christmas shopping for Daniel?" Well, that just about popped my bubble! I miss the days of having extra money for things like new pans and one of my addictions other than scrapbook items, dish sets...... Must be a woman thing because I feel that you can never have enough variety in this area and at one point in my life it was my goal to have a different set of dishes to switch out every few days, of course my hubby just sees it as clutter taking up extra cabinet space.... So hidden away are at least 6 sets (nothing expensive just pretty) while we use the ugly, "it's okay to break" ones but I do suppose I should bring out the Christmas ones soon.
