You mentioned the bread section being "nearly wiped out." Silver Gaia Mar 2020 #10

Google "preserving eggs with mineral oil". You can then keep them in the fridge for up to a year.nt zackymilly Mar 2020 #38

A way to improve your bread machine bread - bake it in the oven! csziggy Mar 2020 #92

I used to do that with my bread machine. After it broke I bought a Bosch stand mixer Luciferous Mar 2020 #99

I went to a stand mixer when I found a vintage Kitchen Aid on Craigs List csziggy Mar 2020 #100

A lot of times you can find barely used bread machines for little money at the thrift store Luciferous Mar 2020 #101

I liked the kneading but just can't do it anymore csziggy Mar 2020 #104
