If anyone here tells me that it is still good after the coating wears off, I think I might just go out ant scream!!

hmmm, should I say it?

I currently have a Le Creuset large Dutch oven and a paella pan. They were purchased as a set from an outlet. Honestly, it was costly but I have gotten so much use out of them. They will really will last a lifetime if they are taken care of. I've had them for probably 8 years now and they look brand new.

I may add one of two additional pieces. I'm trying to decide if I want them all the same color or if I want different colors.

We have one here as well but I haven't been but hear it's great. I love those dutch ovens. I almost always cook with either that dutch oven or my Rachael Ray oval large pan.

I've never been in a Tuesday Morning.... is it more like a Big Lots or a TJ Max?

Before I married my "then" husband in 1979 I had bought me a complete set of Le Cresuete (sp?) cookware and was so very proud of it. Well he always made smart *ss comments about it so bit by bit I sold it off in yard sales...that was so stupid ! I did manage to save one fry pan, maybe 8" across...and yes IT WAS ORANGE....I still have that fry pan today and it still does a great job with whatever I cook in it. Since I'm older, retired and live alone I don't cook a lot but it is still my cornbread pan ! The other day I had to take a large crock pot of homemade veggie soup to a function and was taking cornbread....have a larger cast iron fry pan but ended up making 2 out of the smaller pan....because I know what the quality will be !

We've been divorced 20 years and I still miss my cookware !!!!

I now have a set of Emeril's castiron coated cookware and have been pleased with it.
