First of all its so pretty. I love the color.  I work very long hours and my old, and loved,  Dutch oven cracked. I was devastated.  That has now turned to relief and excitement.  I enjoy prepping large one pot meals ahead of time in huge freezer bags. So after a 15 hour shift I place that in this beauty and toss it in the oven. By the time I'm showered and slippered and possibly cocktailed I have an amazing meal waiting. And the house smells like comfort.  Cleanup is a breeze.  I couldn't be happier
