My wife said she was going to cut into this fresh loaf while I put our son to bed. This is what I came back to.

    She must *really* like your bread. 😅

  2. TehFuriousOne

    Maybe a contrarian opinion but I love this. What a wonderful thing to hand craft something that a loved one enjoys so much.

    Patience is a virtue. And you might want to get a sharper knife. 😉

    We need some crime scene tape up in here.

    Believe it or not – straight to jail.

    Seems like she left you more than your fair share. I don’t understand the issue?

    Who is getting a fresh BOULE and cutting it from the end for a nickel sized piece of bread? nobody.

    Center sliced bread or gtfo

    either it is really good or you married a monster 😀

    That is grounds for immediate divorce.

    The only issue I see is cutting parallel to the ear. Bread looks yum!

  11. JamieLeeTurdis

    I see your wife learned to cut bread from the same school as mine

  12. Dunnowhathatis

    she did exactly what she said she’d do. Not a lot of people are like her nowadays 🙂

    This biggest problem here is she cut over an open drawer! Too many crumbs in the drawer!

    According to King Arthur’s “Big Book of Bread “, “When your bread has cooled and you’re ready to cut it, slice the loaf in half crosswise, cut a
    slice from one of the halves, then press the two halves back together before wrapping.” This is how I always slice/store my bread. 🍞 It’s better for the bread, keeps moisture in, so it doesn’t dry out.

    “How can I make a bigger mess for the next person? I know! I’ll hack the bread apart, leave no clean surface on the boule, and I’ll cut it right on the counter and dump crumbs into all these open drawers.

    That’ll teach them to put the children to bed on their own!”

    It drives me nuts. I’ll go and cut a slice of bread and have a piece of toast I think to myself. I pull the loaf out, and someone’s been hacking lumps off it. Why do people do it? I always assumed it was generally agreed bread gets sliced.

    You’d hate me. I just rip chunks off 😂

    I’m the one that makes them though, so there’s no one to be upset about it lol

    I don’t think she likes the darker colored ear part. Maybe ask if this is the case so you can go lighter for her and keep it darker for me 😉

    Looks like she took a bite (tear?) off of the left piece, which is what I also do when cutting bread. It’s my appetizer!

  20. kobewiththeflow

    Off topic but i couldn’t pay my girl to eat my bread so i usually give it away if i already baked a sandwich loaf

    she’s not big on bread sadly

    When I first started making sourdough, my husband loved it so much I had to make multiple loaves a week and he would rip it with his hands like an animal 😂 I love that man.

  22. MayBeMilo

    At least she didn’t high-grade the ear a la Hannibal Lector and leave anything else!

  23. drcrunknasty

    You gotta get a big hunk of fresh bread. You just have to.

  24. InksPenandPaper

    At least she attempted to slice it. My sister just tears it in half and flees the crime scene.

  25. LoganN64

    Did she use a rusty spoon to try and cut it?

  26. CorpusculantCortex

    If you can’t handle me at my crustiest, you don’t deserve me at my sliciest.

  27. Competitive-Let6727

    I see we’re married to twins. No roast or loaf is safe or straight when my wife is ~~sawing~~ slicing. I pray for the freshness seals on peanut butter and the breakfast cereal inner bags in your home.

    (I just couldn’t be with someone who would be ok with this… explains a lot! All else aside,we would need separate loaves…)

  29. ninjatendon64

    When I bake bread, I often cut it like this because there is an exact piece I want.

  30. twilightmoons

    My kid loves my bread. “Daddy’s bread is the best in the world!”

    He then cuts slices like a barbarian with a battleaxe.

    As long as he’s happy and eating, that’s fine.

  31. Suitable_Magazine372

    For my wife I think it is willful incompetence. That’s why I usually end up slicing the bread. She also can’t figure out how to make her own gin and tonic. It works for us. I suck at paying bills, etc
