‘You dolefully measured out the flour, and from practice added a handful more than the recipe had originally recommended. Then came butter, which made craters as small chunks dropped down as a result of you slicing it with a blunt knife in your hand. Last time, you cut yourself and there's a tightly pulled blue plaster over the memory. Yeast and salt cascaded down and warm water was sloshed in. You mixed it with your fingers, squeezing out lumps and bumps and making sure the soft, dusty materials were fully combined with the wet. It was neither sticky, nor soggy.

With a few useful flicks you covered the counter with a thin layer of flour. The dough made a satisfying thud when it hit the work surface. Your hands were not too clammy, so you began to knead the bread, your nimble fingers making imprints into the soft, smooth surface. Pressing, lifting, turning, pummelling, massaging, rubbing and bending, the dough always seems to work harder than you do, it's form bouncing back into place almost instantly.

Cupping the sides of the tight, firm dough like a small animal, you slipped it into the greasy metal vessel. It sat in their, depleted and quiet, waiting.’,
