Wednesday Medley

                                  Hosted by Terri!


National Parchment Day was submitted by PaperChef and declared by the Registrar of National Day Calendar in June 2016. 

Wednesday Medley

1. Who knew there was a day to celebrate parchment paper?! Do you ever use parchment when you bake or cook? Sometimes. Tell us about your favorite way to use it, please. There are some items I have baked that are so delicate  that lining the pan with parchment is a must..

2. When Terri thinks of parchment paper, she usually thinks about special writing or artist papers. She loves using specialty papers for creating cards or other art projects. Tell us about a creative way you have used parchment paper other than to bake with! When I taught 3rd   and 4th grades I had a project where  the students made maps of  Virginia settlements much like  what John Smith might have made of the rivers and Indian villages.

3. Terri used to be in the cake business and has piped many borders and roses and leaves and letters, etc., etc. You can make a pastry bag from parchment paper! Have you ever tried decorating a cake with a pastry bag and specialty tips? Do you have a picture to share? Don't be shy, now!  I never have done this!

4. Tell us about something you baked or cooked in the past week or so that turned out great, parchment or no parchment. Will you share the recipe? Gee, I haven't done much  cooking on a grand scale in the last month or so..

5. The last Wednesday in June!! How can that be? Has your June flown by or have you been able to enjoy each day and make it slow down for you? I agree time is     flying  ...  the good thing is  our daughter and her family will be with us in August..  now then I will want to put a  brake on time!!!

6. Tell us something about your week so far, if you will. 
I have been feeling so poorly lately mainly due to my allergies and sinus issues and yesterday I finally had my  appointment with the  ENT..I had gone to  an ENT for years,  but  a couple of years ago I stopped going because  I was taking a BP med that was a beta blocker and  couldn't take allergy shots anymore. I recently changed my BP meds so  I can again, so I will go in July for allergy testing again....  that is  something to look forward to!  I suppose..
