      Bulk butter lives in the fridge. This week’s butter lives on the counter in the dish designed for it, with the cover.

        Yes, the cover is essential, especially if you have a cat. Our winters are so cold here, even the butter on the counter isn’t at all soft.

      Yeah, so? A lot of people here do that, you don’t have to spread hard butter on soft bread. It doesn’t go bad because usually it’s eaten quickly and covered with a glass lid or something

        Also salted butter lasts longer on the counter than unsalted, and temperature is a factor. And salted butter makes delicious eggs!
