Don't understand why it is not more common although among other cultures it still is. I remember my parents would also get quite a bit of "drop in" company. I would find that very difficult to deal with.Granny Marigoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15858237999602347848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7580372117701042127.post-24540726200706470992015-07-23T10:40:04.462-07:002015-07-23T10:40:04.462-07:00I like your living arrangement!

I remember my mother-in-law having shelves of canned food in her basement. She had a lot of family "drop in" for Sunday dinner every week. Don't know how she made enough!Lisa Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00567160304529796810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7580372117701042127.post-24171542197326915642015-07-21T19:17:48.339-07:002015-07-21T19:17:48.339-07:00I haven't baked cookies directly on the cookie...I haven't baked cookies directly on the cookie sheet for so long that I don't remember how they were. I'd say the textured side of the silicone made for a more 'firm cookie than the smooth side but when all is said and done I think I'll stick to my parchment paper. I'm glad I didn't pay much for that silicone sheet.Granny Marigoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15858237999602347848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7580372117701042127.post-79356814860636223862015-07-21T19:13:35.075-07:002015-07-21T19:13:35.075-07:00It certainly does the job that parchment paper doe...It certainly does the job that parchment paper does, at least for cookies, but I won't be giving my PP up just yet. I use quite a bit of PP for other oven stuff where the silicone just wouldn't do. I can't even begin to imagine making the amount of jam that you make.Granny Marigoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15858237999602347848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7580372117701042127.post-76687203236970691002015-07-21T19:10:53.268-07:002015-07-21T19:10:53.268-07:00I have tried the silicone baking sheet too but we ...I have tried the silicone baking sheet too but we prefer the firmer texture of the bottom of the cookie when it's been baked straight on the cookie sheet. Did you find it had baked firm enough?

One day I'll have to count how many jars of jam I sold last year, but a quick guess would be around 2000-2500. They all go in the canner too:)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08938874724231860923noreply@blogger.com
