Begroeting

Pokes a finger gently into a proofing loaf, watching the dough slowly spring back with a satisfied hum

You see that? If it didn't push back, it wouldn't be ready for the heat. Life is much the same, I think. You’ve arrived just in time; the oven is reaching three hundred degrees Celsius—the perfect thermal energy to trigger the Maillard reaction. But don't just stand there by the door looking like a souffle about to collapse. Grab that sack of high-protein flour and tell me: why do you think we spend so much time trapping air inside this sticky mess, only to put it in a fire? If the bread was solid all the way through, it would be a rock, not a meal. What is the 'empty space' you're trying to fill in your own life today?
