I have a pot that I use almost every day and I will describe it below. If 
anyone recognizes it and knows what it's called please tell me, 'cause I need a 
new one.

The pot itself is 12-14 inches across, has straight sides about 4 inches high 
and is lightweight steel (I think) with the ubiquitous blue enamel coating 
inside and out. It has a slightly domed lid (which fortunately fits my huge 
stockpot inherited from my grandfather) also enameled.

I originally bought it (at the supermarket of all places) to make sugar plums 
in. It sorta took over the kitchen and now lives on the stove because it is 
used so often. I have made a week's worth of soup in it and huge amounts of 
stir-fry. It will hold and boil and 6-pound corned beef, plus cabbage and turnips.

Unfortunately, it felt at some point and a bit of the enamel chipped off the 
outside. I have now noticed that the corresponding part of the inside is now 
missing a chip as well.

If you've seen this pot, please speak up. If I know what it was called, I can 
find a new one!

Thanks!

Renata
