Wonderful photos of the bread. Makes me want to tear off a chunk to go with some goat cheese and fruit, maybe a bottle of wine. That's what folks are talking about over at Menton Daily Photo, too.
Greetings from Joensuu and thank you, Kate, for your visits my blog, i appreciate it very much. You are so inventive making your posts, it`s delightful to come here. Our everyday bread is still a rye bread. I know, that it`s not commonly eaten, but because of our northern latitudes we can cultivate rye much better than wheat, which can grow only in the southern part of Finland. A location determines much in many things of customs and history.
Looks like Ciabatta bread and French Baguettes; they look wonderfully delicious. I am hungy now. Thank you for this history reminder. Often, I believe we tend to forget about our recent past.
I agree with what everyone else said! Why is bread so expensive here? Why can't we find more little places that sell bread like this? One thing I saw in La Coruna, Spain that I'd never seen before were bakeries that had HUGE loaves of bread. You could go in and request 1/4 or 1/2 or even one slice, and they would cut it for you and charge you by the weight. Could you imagine finding that in the States?
Beautiful bread (why is bread so expensive in this country?)
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of veterans... The War, a Ken Burns film, is being shown on PBS this week. It's wonderful (and very sad).
