Book Description: The Spirituality of Bread
This book is about bread - why we make it, how to make it, what it has to teach us, the memories it gives us. Bread offers connection - as Jesus connected with his friends; as we connect with our children; as Demeter, the goddess of grain, bound herself to her daughter. People of every culture are tied together by the bread they bake. Bread helps us remember who we are and whom we love. In this beautifully and lavishly illustrated book - you can almost smell the aroma of fresh-baked bread - Donna Sinclair shares recipes and memories, stories and ideas about precious loaves that stir memory and bring pleasure. You can make your own bread (and memories) with this book; or simply contemplate the wisdom of the stories found within as you visit your local bakery or make your morning toast.
