PANETTONE

Remembering the spelling of Panettone
When I was typing the word Panettone to find information or suppliers, I had trouble remembering which letter was doubled. First I thought of the French for bread which is pain. I made the mistake of doubling the n. Pan or pain or has a single n. Eventually I made up a mnemonic (memory aid). 

I think of a panet, or basket, for Tony.  Panet-tone - Panettone. Then I thought of the arched panettone, rising to the double letter in the middle. Finally I thought of the letters either side of the double TT.  a-n-e and o-n-e.
