new le creusets

my new le creuset: 6.75 qt. oval french oven in dijon yellow. i never thought i'd get a yellow one. but it looked very lemony and bright. and on sale for $170.25!
















got my hubby a new crepe pan for his pancake-making business too. this one in cobalt blue. it was a bit more than i cared to spend on a pan. but they had the "save 25% on all cobalt & dijon" so i was a bit more inclined to consider this crepe pan. see, all other cheaper pans have been warping, sticking, caking, etc. nothing's been suitable for the pancakes. but this seems perfect. feels sturdy. a one of a kind. we'll see how this one fares.
















i got these square baking dishes also. i already have a cobalt blue set. but i got another set (in kiwi green) because they are just perfect in so many ways (e.g., for presentation, for their perfect sizes, for use under the broiler, to name a few) and they were only $17! a cook can never have enough cookware & bakeware.
