X2. I love that stuff for sure and if it still looks good when I finish baking it goes into the freezer for reuse later.

I never thought about putting the used paper in the freezer. So the paper works well for you a 2nd time?

Oh yeah it definately does not loose its stuff over time, the brown edges though are too brittle to reuse and we trim those. We just hate creating excess garbage it is the German Gene DW has imposed on the household!

For frozen pizza we can do 5-7x on one piece.

Aria & BigBlueHen53 - your loaves of bread look delicious! Makes me feel like making some bread myself. Penny, your pizza looked delicious, as well.

So guys, yesterday we went shopping at Costco's. They were selling Roast Half Duck, 28 oz. packages with orange sauce for like $1.98 each! Well of course I grabbed a few, after verifying with a Costco employee that the price listed wasn't a misprint. The duck is fully cooked, and the instructions are to just bake in a shallow pan for 15-20 minutes. I did read a few reviews where people weren't really crazy about the orange sauce that comes with the duck. I was thinking of possibly making a glaze from our left-over Thanksgiving cranberry/orange sauce instead.
When I was a kid, my dad and brothers would go hunting, and I did NOT like eating duck. Too gamey for me, although I didn't like a lot of things when I was a kid that I like now. Also, the duck I bought at Costco is White Pekin, which I understand is a lot milder than wild duck. I'm beginning to wonder if I should have bought more of the duck, and if my son is heading to town today (where the Costco is), I may ask him to pick up some more at that great price. I hope we like the duck, cause I really don't know how it will turn out!

Duck a L'Orange! How was it? (I'm behind, so I'm sure you've already answered and I'm not there yet.) But, what a great buy!
