Bread Storage Thread

Hey everyone. What do you all do for storing homemade bread? I have been wrapping in wax paper and storing in brown paper bags. It holds fairly well for a couple days. I haven't wanted to use plastic because it makes the bread chewy. Refrigeration affects the flavor because the bread absorbs other stuff in the fridge. I'm not above using a SIMPLE additive, nothing too crazy, but just to make it hold for some additional time.

I'm using lahey's bread method and his recommended storage. In an email before Jacob mentioned lecithin to retain some of the moisture. Love to get a discussion going.
