Dan has been baking a lot of bread recently, and I’m not complaining. Well, maybe I’m complaining a little, because I can’t stop eating the stuff. Why is bread so good? I know someone who once went voluntarily gluten-free. How could anyone do such a thing?

I came across these bread bags by Stelton, from Emmo Home, and I thought they were just wonderful. They have magnets and can be closed and folded over, like little lunch sacks, or stood up tall for corralling baguettes. They are so simple and functional, and seem to subtly suggest that my usual behavior — reach over and tear off a crusty hunk, disregarding the bread knife and cutting board — is perfectly acceptable.
I realized as I was looking at them that I was doing that thing marketers and salesmen the world over desperately hope for: I was imagining them in my house.
And then I was imagining that I could make them.
After I learn how to work my sewing machine.

I am *all* about ripping off fancy things I’m too cheap to buy! Let’s brainstorm this… what do you think they’re made out of? Canvas?
