alpenrose Oct 2018 9:02am, 23 Oct 2018 36,288 posts	0 alpenrose My bread lives in the freezer. I've just worked out that my microwave is about 21 years old - still looks like new. I don't use it very much, just to reheat stuff occasionally these days.
Mrs Jigs (Luverlylegs) Oct 2018 9:05am, 23 Oct 2018 27,324 posts	0 Mrs Jigs (Luverlylegs) Our bread lives in the freezer too. Kettle, toaster and coffee machine on worktop near the sink, microwave on another worktop near the oven. Microwave used for porridge and reheating meals.

LazyDaisy Oct 2018 9:59am, 23 Oct 2018 24,273 posts	0 LazyDaisy Our microwaves (2 kitchens) are both built in. The toasters are next to the bread bins and the kettles are next to the food waste bin in the corner, so teabags are immediately deposited in there. There's also a radio and a fruit bowl on the worktops, and in our no.1 house, far too much other stuff: a sandwich toaster, three utensils pots, weighing scales, a breadmaker, a knife block...it was so nice when it was new and uncluttered, now, not so much
Diogenes Oct 2018 10:00am, 23 Oct 2018 31,059 posts	0 Diogenes Bread lives in bread bin, toaster is adjacent next to bread board. The toaster gets used most days. Other appliances are a slow cooker, an electric can opener, a bread maker, and a microwave. My eldest daughter uses the microwave to make any hot drink.

halfpint Oct 2018 10:26am, 23 Oct 2018 26,695 posts	0 halfpint This seems like a good place to ask for bread machine recommendations. I had one previously which produced bricks. I know a couple of people who get lovely loaves from theirs. My aunty says panasonic. Any suggestions here?
