In my house it's the choice between bread in the fridge or bread nibbled on by cats.
We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

Ours is safe from the cat. It's only plants, flowers, and green, leafy vegetables that are in danger from the cat.
Our cat is insane.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
a loaf of bread or set of english muffins that's over three days old has started to go bad
I have to keep bread in the freezer or fridge, because I just don't go through a loaf quickly enough. And I was raised on refrigerated bread, so it doesn't bother me in terms of stale/not-as-fresh.
The mold-you-can't-see problem falls in the category, for me, of all the other potentially icky food things that may or may not have happened -- I just ignore them. (Working at McDonald's has led me to just assume that any and all fast-food sandwiches [burgers, chicken, fish] probably had something dubious happen to at least one of the components of the sandwich. Like flies walking across the cheese slices. Yes, the cheese is supposed to be wrapped up when not in use, and yes, the grill area should be insect-free, but in the summer, bugs are going to get in, and when there's a sudden influx of customers and you're hauling ass to get burgers made, you don't stop to re-wrap the cheese, particularly when you know you'll be using it again in 45 seconds.)
So, potentially moldy bread, housefly footprints on the cheeseburger -- I find it best to not think about what I can't see.

I'll just be over here in my apartment, refusing to trim my fingernails and muttering about bugs.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Apparently we have having roller derby at K-Bug's high school on May 19th - the Bay Bombers vs the New York Heatwave. I might have to go.
Kids made nummy breakfast. DH bought me a bead organizer thing I've been lusting over...
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to those who mother.

Happy Mum's Day!
Fay, that tattoo is frelling gorgeous. Good on you for being so brave.
I got sent home early today (cause it's gorgeous and we have no mom-appropriate movies). I ran errands, and later I'll do another (how did I accidentally buy the wrong yogurt?!?), but now? We flop.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
We use a breadbox. Grocery store bread lasts at least a week in there, usually more, before it's stale or growing fuzz. English muffins last practically forever.
And I'm okay with eating food a fly has landed on, as long as it's not still there when I'm handed the sandwich.
[eta: I can't believe I forgot to mention Fay's gorgeous tattoo!! I absolutely love it.]

I keep bread in the fridge. If it gets a little stale, I toast it a bit. For some strange reason I've noticed that bread gets moldy very quickly in our current place.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I don't eat bread anymore.

Man, Fay. That is one gorgeous tattoo. It's just about how you described it, with a bit more pink. :) lovely.
Pleiades, you around?
