I started baking “properly” in 2015 after filming the liberation of #Kobani in #Syria with @kikimking Miraculously, the bakery was still working & it was inspiring to see how much pleasure and hope something as simple as freshly baked bread brought to people (myself included!) https://twitter.com/waveswhisperer/status/1245313768537522176

If I bake a loaf - even if it doesn’t turn out as I’d hoped - then no matter what else happens that day, I’ve achieved (and learned) something - because bread is everything: sustenance, survival, science, culture, religion, joy... as well as occasionally deeply frustrating...

Seemed only fitting to conclude this thread with an experiment - a little long-rise loaf for my mum, risen overnight in the baking tin. Seems OK... Right... now the real work is done I can get back to the day job...
