The container with ice cubes is a great idea! It would be useful in the
drawer where the bread got mouldy. Nothing else in that drawer is
mouldy, nor does anything else seem like it has thawed out. I suspect
this package of bread was just too big for the drawer I put it in. My
first thought was to put it in the downstairs freezer, but then it
wouldn't be convenient. Stairs wear me out.
