sandwich. If only we could buy one or 2 slices, rather than having

to buy a whole loaf.

Once in a while I REALLY want toast with my eggs. So I buy the Lite bread

made by Orowheat (they have a lite 9-grain that is awesome, and a lite

potato bread that is also quite good). The slices are small to start out

with, so there's not as much actual bread there as would be in 2 regular

slices. And the 9-grain is high in fiber, always a good thing for those of

us who drink a lot of protein.

Then I freeze the whole loaf, and just take out 2 slices when I am having an

omelet. Maybe once a week or less, as I only cook eggs for breakfast on

weekends. I've had the same loaf of bread in my freezer for 2 months, and

only half of it is gone. When it's not out, I'm not tempted to haul out half

a loaf and spread peanut butter and marshmallow fluff all over it! (my

sandwich demon/poison of choice)

I know, I know, I shouldn't eat bread at all, but at least when I do, I do

it with some forethought.

I keep bread in the freezer. I chip out 1-2 slices when I need it. That

way, it can call my name, but I can't hear it.

I tried freezing it, but when you try to get a couple of slices off a frozen

loaf, it breaks and it's no longer fresh, and you have to toast it, and it's

just not the same. But, this is probably a good thing.

When you freeze bread ,freeze it standing up,it will freeze better and taste

fresh when you thaw it...

Now, this is a new one on me. Any idea why? And is it easier to get a piece

out without having it break? No matter what I do, sticking a knife carefully

in between or what, it always breaks.
