I notice my hands feel soft from the olive oil I’ve slathered over the dough I’ve just made for a shared meal with EarthAbbey friends tonight…friends who will be our real ‘companions’, the word being derived from ‘those who share bread’ (thanks to Richard for pointing that out).
A rainy day has been transformed into a valuable day with the smell of baking permeating the air. I’m looking forward to the rewards of flavoursome foccacia (made with Shipton Mill’s English flour) and homegrown salad from our polyhouse (not quite a tunnel!).
