As an adult I started reading fairytales. The images that stayed with me over the years are the ones where the protagonist, weary from traveling, was welcomed into someones home, usually a cottage in the woods, and given food and rest and encouragement to carry on. The simple meal that was so often on offer was almost always fresh bread and milk. So simple yet so nourishing. I longed to be the one resting at the table but also hoped to one day be the one offering the bread and milk. I do not yet have a cottage in the woods. Instead, I have this. So welcome to Bread and Milk.
