Bread makes itself, by your kindness, with your help, with imagination
streaming through you, with dough under hand, you are breadmaking
itself, which is why breadmaking is so fulfilling and rewarding.

Recipes do not belong to anyone -- given to me, I give them to you.
Recipes are only a guide, a skeletal framework, to be fleshed out
according to your nature and desire. Your life, your love, will bring these
recipes into full creation. This cannot be taught. You already know. So
plunge in: cook, love, feel create. Actualize breadmaking itself.
