bread with soul...

Update #17 · May 21, 2012 · comment

i thought i would fill your heads with some of the words that describe what we do, what we live, every day...

"The fires of heaven

Are stoked with wood

In an oven below the ground

Where bread is rising,

Certain as the sun and rain,

Bread, my life, born early this morning..."

“The smell of good bread baking, like the sound of lightly flowing water, is indescribable in its evocation of innocence and delight...[Breadmaking is] one of those almost hypnotic businesses, like a dance from some ancient ceremony. It leaves you filled with one of the world's sweetest smells... there is no chiropractic treatment, no Yoga exercise, no hour of meditation in a music-throbbing chapel that will leave you emptier of bad thoughts than this homely ceremony of making bread.” ― M.F.K. Fisher, The Art of Eating

what she really said:

"if the people have no bread, let them eat cake" - Marie Antoinette

“How can a nation be great if their bread tastes like kleenex?” - Julia Childs

thank you thank you and thank you all! we are less than $300 from paying the Kickstarter/Amazon fee...WOW!
