We really don't.

It's exactly what you think, but also, this is the internet ruining you.

I wonder if it's because 2-year-olds are usually pretty noisy, so when they've fallen asleep, it's easier to forget that they're even back there.

I don't want him in the Ukraine, doing the same things he was doing in the US.

Canadian here, who is aware of a lot of US politics, but not all. I'm confused about how she propped up and funded Trump. I know they were friends in previous years. Was this in business?

HA! Mine is an acronym: not another user name.

My sensitive, eczema-prone skin say, "No."

Them, too.

It could be a way of finding a specific movie, when you can't remember the name, but can remember some details.

Also, she's giving the LL&P sign backwards.

That's great, but what do you put the bread into? A plastic bag, or do people just carry them around bare? What happens if someone drops it and decides they want another, or just changes their mind about buying one? In North America, they'll probably just put it back in the bin. Now the next person gets floor bread or, at least, something that someone else has been carrying around until they changed their mind.

Paper bags have to be left open to let the moisture vent and allow the bread to crisp. That doesn't work on the grocery store floor. We tried it. Our first bags were paper.

In a regular bakery, the bread is behind the counter, out of reach of the patrons, correct? In a grocery store, it's all on the shelf, where anyone can touch it. This is much more sanitary. I wouldn't buy any that weren't wrapped up.

Bread doesn't last long enough in this kind of bag for it to have been baked in a factory and shipped to the store. It's baked fresh in the store that day. It'a baked from a "bread base" (think cake mix, but for bread), to which yeast and water are added. It's mixed, proofed, then baked, all on-site in the bakery. Source: me! I worked in a grocery store bakery.

It's a plastic bag with tiny holes in it. These are on the store floor, where people can grab a baguette for themselves. The plastic keeps the braguette relatively safe, and the holes allow moisture to escape, keeping the baguette crispy for the day

If it's in that kind of bag (with little holes in it), it was definitely freshly baked that day. That kind of bag is designed to keep the bread crispy, but it can only be used on the day it was baked, or the bread will become hard as rock the next day. If a loaf is going to be kept and sold the next day, it has to be rebagged into a solid plastc bag to keep it fresh. "Lovely" is subjective. It's a grocery store baguette.

However, incomes are lower than that, so we're still paying more.

Duran Duran, one "r" for each word.
