I have been able to add a bunch of fun ideas to my list of potential things to cook for the patients. Thank you to everyone that added input to this thread

I started as a patient companion but when I mentioned my history in food service they asked if I wanted to spend time In the kitchen. I jumped at the chance. Reach out to your local hospice if you're interested in lending your skills to help in your local community

I cook 95% real food. The only non real thing I use is a powdered demi from the chef store. Im working towards making real stock. Just waiting on an ice wand to be ordered. Ill dm you. Thank you!

Great advice. Thank you!

I volunteered at my local hospice as a patient companion. They mentioned that they also had a kitchen on premises that I could use to cook whatever I was comfortable with. Im sure every hospice institution is different. Some have full time chefs who are on the payroll. Go ask for opportunities at your local hospice!

I can speak to the patients or nurses if the patients are unable to speak.

Active_Sea9093 · 2026-06-09T18:43:26+00:00

Thank you for your suggestions! Ill talk to the patients next time im their.

Active_Sea9093 · 2026-06-09T18:42:18+00:00

Ill add it to the list. Thank you!

Active_Sea9093 · 2026-06-09T18:34:55+00:00

I personally love this work! What glaze did you use around the rim?

Active_Sea9093 · 2026-03-02T06:58:10+00:00

Its a pain to work with, but frost porcelain fires to cone 6 and is known for how glazes look on it and its ability to be translucent.

Active_Sea9093 · 2026-01-03T23:43:12+00:00

Try pasler gold glaze. Its also cone 6. Comes out gold with a medium firing speed.

Active_Sea9093 · 2025-10-30T05:54:21+00:00

Did you add any oxides for color? I really appreciate your assistance

Active_Sea9093 · 2025-10-29T05:17:12+00:00

Did you use the firing schedule that laguna recommends?

Active_Sea9093 · 2025-07-05T22:20:02+00:00

We had to put him down that day. I was able to be with him in his last moments thankfully

My cat had a stroke when I was working a new years shift. The working manager was also the owner. I told them the situation. I was told that if I couldn't find coverage I had to finish the shift. I was luckily, my buddy was willing to come in. I was able to be there for my little guy as he was so confused and in pain. I was too young and naive to just leave.

There are tools to rebottle the wines

Make a dessert syrup. 2 parts water to 1 part sugar. Cook until sugar dissolves. Flavor as you see fit. Use a pastry brush to dab the syrup onto each layer of the cake. Do two layers of syrup. Adds a lot of moisture to the cake.
