Life-Changing (Stale) Bread Trick

Confession: when it comes to bread, you will never see me throwing out a stale loaf. It might be because of my upbringing or just my undeniable love for it, but when I get a loaf, I eat it till the last crumble :)

Over the years, in hopes to find a way to savior every last slice, I've tried a bunch of different ways to revive it and the technique that never disappoints is this:

Stick your bread under water (warm or cold, it's up to you). Set your oven for a 'warm' (300-325 degrees) setting. Place your wet bread into the oven and set a timer for 6-7 minutes. Ta dah!

In the words of Rochelle: 'What emerges will be a good-as-new loaf: moist on the inside, crackly-crust on the outside.'

Yup, exactly that! Enjoy...

P.S: Oh yes!
P.P.S: The best way to eat zucchini bread.

Freckled

Brock Elbank is an English photographer who celebrates unique trades of the human body. For his latest project he chose 180 individuals of different ethnicity, age and gender from Europe, North and South America, Africa and Asia to showcase their beautiful freckles in all forms and shapes. I love every single one of those snapshots. You?

Do you have freckles? How do you feel about them?

P.S: A festival of freckles and frolics.
P.P.S: Redhead beauty.
