As such, she and her grandmother have wonderfully much in common. The little girl lives at 24 The Little Street Behind Main Street Street. Her Grandmother lives next-door to the house next-door to the little girl at 28 The Little Street Behind Main Street Street. The Grandmother waves to the little girl and her Mother, and they wave back. The clothes from the wash that Papa put on the line today wave like clouds in the morning wind.

I shape my ciabatta with gravity alone, holding an edge and letting the opposite pole of the raw-dough hang, just enough, then I invert the lengthening piece, and repeat Sensitive hands can feel where to hold, how long (and hard) to press, and when to turn things around Allow the form to find its form Consider: the unbaked ciabatta is alive Unlike God, I find the best bread rises on the fourth day Steam to crust, ashes to dust and all that lovely leaven (so close to heaven) in between yeasty, earthy, airy chew like life cc: Chagall 2021
