Bottom freezers in a french door style fridge/freezer have to be pushed
shut. No amount of leveling is going to get that drawer to shut itself.

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.

cheers Pandora

I put some sandwich rolls in the same spot and they haven't gotten
mouldy. I really can't explain how that happened so fast. I don't even
think if the bread was out on the counter that it would grow that much
mould so fast. A day or two.

At least you have another freezer. I think I would have broken it up
- kept some upstairs and the rest down.

I have had bread that did that although I am not sure why. I wrote to the
bakery and got no response. Some here surmised that it was put in the
plastic while still warm. It was a flat bread pita, but not the pocket
kind.

Of course. I should have realized.

She has a small kitchen. My kitchen isn't what you'd traditionally
consider small, but I don't have much/or any wall space to put
something like that (in my 90 YO house) unless I want to impede the
flow of traffic.

My dishwasher is next to the sink. I can take the towel off the
handle whenever I think it should be removed AND I can use it, PLUS I
have the extraordinary ability to put it back on the bar quickly. Let
me rephrase: OK, It's an amazing skill.... (I know)> You don't need
to thank me.

We're cool.
