Bread and flowers

Pumpernickel and plants

The process of baking bread and gardening
is actually quite similar.
You assemble the parts
and make a mess while combining them.
Patience is a virtue
as both activities involve a lot of waiting.
Maintenance is required,
whether it’s watering, kneading, weeding or proofing.
Curiosity keeps you coming back,
just to see if anything has happened.
Success is often dependent
on my mood and the weather.
And from humble ingredients,
something wonderful is created.
Sometimes you can even eat it!
