And now I'm trying to remember how much of the pot I usually fill when I'm making soup! Since I don't usually make that much. See Bedlam. See Bedlam try and picture soup pots in her mind's eye... I might go for the 3-quart, but then again, I do tend to think that one's too big...erp, clearly the answer would be for more companies to make 2 1/2-quart pans.

I've been reading reviews on Amazon all day, and most of the Farberware ones tend to be very good, and they're cheaper, especially if I get one from Warehouse Deals. *sighs* Agh, shopping. I wish I could just go to Wal-mart and look at pots to figure out how big they are, but, alas, not an option.
