This was relatively easy to make. My favorite part was the idea that I could just assemble it, turn it down low and walk away. Although I was nervous that it would scorch on the bottom, I was pleasantly surprised that it turned out beautifully. Our dinner guest absolutely raved as did DD#2, but DH and DD#3 had mixed feelings about it...hence four stars rather than five. Thank you for sharing Barb!
