First Love

Last night, for the first time in a long, long time, I made toast with my regular whole wheat bread and topped it with butter and honey. I loved it all over again!

That was how I first fell in love with whole wheat bread--the homemade kind, using freshly-ground whole wheat flour. That's what I tasted as a teenager when I visited my older sister. The rhythm of life in her home included grinding wheat, baking bread, and eating buttered whole wheat toast topped with honey.

It's just one of those perfect flavor combinations.

It's nice that this bread is nutritious. But that is beside the point.

This is whole grain happiness!
