loaf

Whole baked bread

A loaf is bread baked in a single shaped mass, typically oblong: a loaf of bread, a sandwich loaf.

The shape extends to other foods molded similarly: meatloaf, a loaf of cheese.

To loaf is to idle or waste time: He spent the afternoon loafing around the house.

A loafer is someone who loafs, or a slip-on leather shoe.
