    My favourite "hack" I guess is with cold butter when you need to spread it on bread, etc. Instead of getting a knife, use a potato peeler on the butter. It creates very thin slices of butter which are easier to spread, great for toast in the morning.

In awhile, they are soft. Fresh 🍞 also makes brown sugar soft again. No need to toss, if it gets hard. Don't you just love to learn new things?

    And I see somebody put the microwave on here but let me tell you guys once you get it melted there ain't no getting it back cool without a good amount of time science is funny that way LOL.

    Who leaves butter in the fridge anyways? Own a simple butter dish and leave it on the counter like a normal person. People are so paranoid about everything these days they forget how to preform simple daily actions in fear of “anything.” Humans can simultaneously be the most intelligent animals yet completely ignorant to simple concept like complicating room temperature butter.
