... as in cooking implements, not weed.

Made a really nice garage sale score today - the full set of the stainless steel pots you get with a Cooking Club of America Lifetime Membership.

If you ever think of joining - don't. Their book club offers exactly two good books (the intro to the basics book and the one on pasta), and overall they just try to rip you off.

However, their pots kick ass. They claim the set is worth $230 (looking at similar stuff online, fairly accurate), and I certainly wouldn't pay the $330 lifetime membership fee (even in twelve convenient installments).... but for $50, when they don't even look used?

Hell yeah!

And now we can happily ditch the old ones with the non-stick coating rubbing off... I was beginning to worry that I'd grow an extra toe or something.

(This still doesn't beat my earlier score of a 1978 MN RenFest commemorative pottery mug for $2... but I think there's very little that would. *grin*)
