Dang there sure some nice people on the forum!!!
My neighbor just brought over a package the postman had left for us. I opened the box to find some Panettone, eenie meenie’s sweet bread.
I have been wanting to make this since Rebecca’s post back in the beginning of last December. I feel pretty fortunate to receive something that takes so much effort to make, package and ship.
Very kind and thank you Rebecca, it is appreciated more than I can express.
A little back story. My wife never objects to me getting ‘stuff’ I want/"need" and very seldom asks for things for herself other than things for the kids and grand kids. Hence Large, Medium, Small and Mini eggs plus a Stoker and DigiQII and a bunch of other ‘necessities’ for egg’n – (and in the past other hobbies). I have never had to ask the wife or get the wife’s permission, other than a courtesy to her. In the rare case she does want something I do my very best to get ‘it’ for her.
So we get the Panettone in the post from Rebecca and as suggested I toasted some, put some butter on it and give it to my wife.
After ONE BITE, I was informed - not asked, not suggested, just TOLD, under no circumstances am I allowed to eat any of the Panettone unless she gives her expressed permission. I am lucky it wasn’t written permission.
The one who must be obeyed (sometimes) isn’t here and I am enjoying a little right now – I am going to catch heck for that. Sometimes a dangerous mission is worth the risk - hopefully she won't notice. But toasting it and putting some butter and a little sugar with a hint of cinnamon is really, really good.
Here is a post from Hoss where he posted some pictures of toasted Panettone.

Here is a link to eenie meenie’s original detailed post. It is well worth taking a look.

Thank you Rebecca, that was very nice of you and much appreciated. A pretty dang nice Monday indeed.
My best, Kent

From the subject line thought a twin had just popped out no one had noticed :ohmy:Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers.

Ain't eggheads just the best. Especially the best ones.

Almost as good as a twin, well not quite.

You are correct, kind of an amazing place we have here.

Congratulations Kent, I was a recipient of one of Rebecca's panettones last December and it is amazingly good and she is an amazingly nice person. I still have a nice slice well wrapped in my freezer that I am saving for the right time. I can hear it calling to me from time to time. Oh ya, Congratulations on #17 as well, did you get approval for another egg?
Hope you are well,
Blair -
Congrats Kent.
Rebecca is a mighty fine egghead for sure.
Your a lucky man to have such a beautiful wife. -
Awwww - that's so nice. The kindness of the people on this forum are amazing - I'm sure the Panettone is delicious. It was prepared with a loving heart

That STUFF is AWESOME!!! :woohoo: I,like you, felt "special" to receive mine! Thanks again e.m.

Hey Kent, you are living large squeezed between your wife and Rebecca, one lucky man........twww.ceramicgrillstore.com ACGP, Inc.

I remember your post back then and was pretty jealous!!!
It is really amazing how good it is.
Thanks on #17, we need more girls to balance the boys. For me it is all pretty darn fun.
As for approval, I never get static on anything. My restraint is my own doing (and feeling guilty). I very jokingly mentioned that we need to get and XL and I just got a rolling of the eyes and a smile.
I have a lot of $$$ I need to spread out to the medical profession for now.
Be well, Kent -
Internet connection went down just as I was sending the above post. Just got back up now. Got to love comcast. -
Thanks my friend. Hope you and Cindy are well. Snowing like a bugger right now.
Kent -
Yes, that was very kind. Thanks. Kent -
"The pannetone reminds me of the stollen that my Mother used to make"
Thanks for posting the link.
I ended up going to the web to so some reading up on Panettone, the history is pretty interesting.
Kent -
I have been explaining to my wife 'it was only a small piece'.
Kent -
Besides those two treasures I do have my AR and Spider, they count as treasures also.
Be well, Kent -
Kent, congratulations on #17, baby Samantha Rae!
I'm glad you received the surprise....someone else's took a detour to Spokane, eventually ending up in New Mexico. :huh: I kind of wrote the wrong zip code of the address label, lol. -

My best, Kent
