The Loaf

I clearly remember my grand mother scolding me for throwing bread on the fire,
"wasting food is bad, throwing bread away is a sin"....the staff of life...the body of Christ!

Food is sacred

Last night after at least ten years of trying I baked the loaf that had only ever existed in my imagination....it's sitting on the kitchen bench and it's beautiful....I gave birth to it by a kind of magic....because that's what the process is.Why is food such a fundamental source of metaphor?
