Du Pain Gros
My mother usually buys this large loaf to cut up for toast, as the smaller ones tend to be too sweet. At €2 a piece it makes those back in Japan seem like an excessive treat. We are all off west for a week on what might turn out to be a busman’s holiday.










Oh, to have an oven big enough to bake a loaf like that!

Walking around here you can see plenty of bread ovens adjoining the houses. In some of the gardens they are in the shape of a chimnea, others brick – which has set things going in my head.
