… to wake up everyday and work hard at something i love so much. to wake up everyday and have my work be the smell of fresh bread baking in the oven.

‘Tis a dream I will never take for granted, nor will I ever take for granted the ability I have to keep working at this dream and that this dream will always grow and evolve and change as I grow and evolve and change. What a dang cool thing this is. I am forever so grateful.

“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.” - MFK Fisher
