Questions people ask

How can extra bread be stored?
Slice and freeze any bread that won't be eaten within a day or two. Toast or warm slices straight from the freezer.
Does a bread basket make sense as a hostess gift?
Yes, it can be served with the meal or saved for breakfast the next morning. A note saying it doesn't need to be served that night helps.
