As usual your photos are delightful and so full of insight into the souls of people. I also love the topic of the art on bread and how Important it is to life and communities. Thank you for adding joy to my day.
Steve – as usual, the slice of life from corners of the world I have never focused on. You are an amazing man. That said! My wife has us on KETO, and this was torture to me… thanks!
Reading your up about bread reminded my of my late mom and the sweet smell of fresh baked .
