one of my dreams this year
is to learn to make bread from scratch
I look forward to
the peace, the poetry, the adventure.
the crust.

I bake bread often–just baked a challah yesterday. You’ll find it’s not difficult–and the scent of bread baking is wonderful. 🙂 Enjoy!
I like the Neruda quote.

Used to make my own bread. But living in close vicinity of not one but TWO excellent bakeries, who draw you in with the smell and perfume of their baking skills, and having a huge choice of breads of all sorts when I am in Switzerland, is really rendering all intentions of self baking unnecessary. But it-s a beautiful thing, making one-s own bread. It is wholesome even if it isn-t.
Perfect words by Neruda too.

I like making bread, especially when you smell it baking in the oven.
It’s easy, but time consuming. Then you consume it!
