And nothing better to do, Frederique, Chéri.

I remember piling in from school and heading for the bread bin where Soreen was the only inhabitant that hadn’t dried out and grown mold. Slathered quickly with butter it satisfied a raging, growth-spurt driven hunger in under 10 seconds. No need to toast. 🙂

Rob, I’m with you! Yes to toasting lightly, but use the grill so you’re in control.

“After all, it’s only bread.”

You have to have a very trusted toaster!

I think ‘cynical’ would probably be a more accurate description. Of course I knew it would burn – it would kind of detract from my point if it hadn’t. OBVIOUSLY this is a case of each to their own pj…a bit of playful controversy never hurt anyone. After all, it’s only bread.

The best thing is the sqoodgy, playful nature of the fresh loaf. Don’t bastardise it kids.
