I’ve had several bread bins in my life. All of them rehomed to CS’s as I just can’t seem to get the hang of them … 🤷‍♀️😂 Totally relate to going shopping to experience air-con … 😉

Yaay for Tuesday 😊

Phew - glad it isn't just me.  Either my family eat all the bread or no bread and it goes mouldy.  Now I put it straight in the freezer and we get them out when we need them slice by slice.  No waste.  IKEA though is a nightmare for trying to come out with what is just on the list!

I also went shopping, but took out DD as she was driving everyone nuts and DH had to do an hour of work.  I managed to buy nothing at all (*cough* ok, I bought a bag of doughnuts for everyone), but DD spent her ill gotten gains on some tat.

This is exactly what we do. We have a bread drawer in the freezer for Mr KK’s 50/50 very commercial sliced bread, my artisan, wholemeal sourdough, spare naans, garlic bread sections and frozen left over pizza dough balls. 😊

Wait....I should have a bread bin 🤔😱🤷‍♀️?

No.  In my opinion they are homes to mouldy crumbs & cause way more cleaning than they are worth.  I have a marble "plate" & a mesh cage type thing

Didn't realise this would be a controversial topic 😂

Fiddle dee dee, new mobile broadband doesn't cut it, will need to contact them to return it tomorrow. New broadband getting fitted on 5th September, they will need to drill 😬

We own a bread bin (an old fashioned enamel one) but use it as a bathroom bin 😂😂

Laughing at the bread bin posts.  I do not own one.   I briefly had one whilst living in my gorgeous rented barn (when escaping PPH) as it came with the full furnished property. I put in the bathroom cupboard, I could not see the point of it

Another one who doesn't have a bread bin here. I bake most of our bread and rolls and store them in paper bags (some.rolls then go in freezer bags and get frozen, as I bake quite a few at one time)

We did have a bread bin when we first bought a house back in 1991(!) It matched the tea/coffee/sugar pots, the biscuit box and the utensil jar - all long gone. They take up space on the side and harbour crumbs 😊 (I use kilner (autocorrected to killer! 😂) jars now for t/c/s)

I love a random conversation on mse 😁

Ah, the matching sets! I think that was required in the 90s, wasn't it? There used to be pages of them in the Argos and Index books 🤣!
