Bakeries are evocative. They still send out the feel of home and the smell of yeast on the air. There's the crusty goodness and the reliability of sinking one's teeth into a staple food that nourishes the body and reminds the soul of family.

Rare is it for one to just sit and think. Rarer still is the appreciation, which is why we must keep it alive. Shukran for doing so in a beautiful fashion

At one point people might realize that they can't eat their phones. Hopefully there are some bakeries left then, however, a pill might do...
