Waiting for the Snow
Four to six inches of snow predicted for today. Great incentive to make some bread. [NOTE: Dough shown is at the sponge stage. Slight bubbles of yeast in warm water with flour and honey to feed on].
'When I cook, another body comes alive. Not the body of walking or typing, not the body of sitting or talking, but the body of cooking. Hands awaken, boundless with their own knowledge, picking up, handling, putting down. A whole body, nothing but food, offering."

Dear Dr. Peters,
It's so lucky! I happen to remember that you use this website everyday. So I think I can find you here. I met some problems. I don't know how to solve. So I sent them to your email. Could you check the email, please?
PS: Although it's late, but I would like to send you and your family: MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
And a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you, too, Ms. Ngoc. I'll go through your e-mail tomorrow...
