Oh yummy! I remember that. It is so good that way!

Kelly - Do you guys have a Big Lots? They may have one there that you can pick up much cheaper than the stores. I don't like buying used electronics because you never really know if they work until you get home - then you find out it doesn't and you're out that money.:(

Trish - Trader Joe's is nice but I rarely buy anything there, they have interesting items not found in a "regular" grocery store. We go there maybe 3 or 4 times a year. None are close and it is pretty expensive. DS and I went there once and bought chocolate covered edamames!:p

Like Cindy, I freeze my breads. All my friends get them fresh frozen unless they want to come to my house and pick up a fresh one. I have taught friends how to make my specialty bread so I have encountered quite a few different bread machines. All of them are great IMHO.

I make 8 breads per day. I am hoping it is part of my immortality with my kids. The smell of fresh bread will trigger a memory of mom.:)

The bit that is left over, I throw away when stale.

I do not refrigerate my breads, I just saw a sign in Trader Joe's and figured the store was the expert.

We do have Big Lots here. I should check them out. I haven't been to one in a long time.

I shop there sometimes. I actually find I save money there and they take food stamps there. The ones here are around 10 miles or so from my house so unless I am going to be in the area, I just go to Albertsons.

Kelly - Big Lots has some really neat stuff at reasonable prices. They just don't always carry the same thing and if you don't have the money at the time, chances are it won't be there when you go back. That's the downfall. Of course, I don't have the money anytime. LOL They do have food items and toiletries I pick up there.
