Panettone

The PANTONE® name is known worldwide as the standard language for color communication from designer to manufacturer to retailer to customer.  Panettone or King cake is a type of sweet bread loaf originally from Milan, usually prepared and enjoyed for Christmas and New Year .  The word "panettone" might derive from the Italian word "panetto", a small loaf cake. The augmentative Italian suffix "-one" changes the meaning to "large cake".  However in Milanese "pan del ton", means "cake of luxury".

Thanks giving

We have so many freedoms others do not have.  It has cost some men and women time away from family, life-altering injuries, or the ultimate price – their life. Thank you to those who helped, or are helping, protect those freedoms.
True friends encourage us, motivate us, and push us to do better. Thank you for all the great things you have done and for also being a great friend to others.
Hopefully, like my home, your home is also a place of safety and encouragement.  This season we are supporting organizations who help those who have no homes.
In addition, we are thankful we have the opportunity to eat on a daily basis. If you have plenty, please show your thanks by helping to support agencies that care for the hungry.
