It seems that some of the whole grain loafs seem to dry out very quickly, even stored in a plastic bag – if it hasn't started to turn green, is there a way to restore some of the life back into them?

It depends. If you need it to soften up for just a little while you can throw it in the mircowave for about 10-15 seconds. And by a little while, I mean the time it takes to make and eat a sandwich. Other than that, you can use the bread for breadcrumbs or croutons. Also, dry bread makes the best french toast you will ever have. Basically, you can't turn back time on a loaf but you can make it last longer by freezing it and thawing a slice at a time.
