Can anyone help Cheril. Please email this site if you can. Her email follows........
Hi guys,
Thank you for your site it is delightful - and delicious
Question..... But, can anyone tell me where (I live in Victoria, Eastern suburbs) I can purchase a jam/preserving pan. (I am sick of burning jam in the bottom of my stock pot. Yes, I do put lots of large marbles in the bottom, and I do carefully stir in hot sugar until it is dissolved (or it seems to be). The shape of a stock pot is not suitable.) It seems incredible to me that it should be so hard to find. Perhaps country stores sell them, but I wouldn't know who to look for. I would appreciate any help that you can give me.....Cheril
