I especially liked the baker washing her hands with scented soap. It touched me deeply. Sometimes, the smallest things have the most lasting impact.

My grandmother used to make a cross over the bread with the tip of the knife before cutting it.

That was lovely, and I wish more days were so miraculous! I hope you’re having one! The streets you mention bring me back to my distant past and the haunts of my grandpa when he first came to America.
