As a lad, we were much more likely to have sliced bread than buns, so I
ate a lot of hotdogs and hamburgers that way, but not on homemade bread.

My grandmother (they lived on the farm) did used to "make bread", in
that all the bread for sandwiches or whatnot she made. When my mother
made bread, it was essentially a starch dish, we ate it hot with butter
until it was all gone. We had eight kids in the family.
