I was so excited when I saw this come into my inbox I decided to listen to it straight away before heading to bed last night!
How are you feeling now? Seems like you’re in the folding phase where it’s ground hog day and your waiting for your moment to actually become some yummy bread and feel more like yourself. 💕🍞🥖
Love that you see me in the folding phase. I actually think that might be accurate! I may be ready to bake. I hope!!! It’s a new week! Thank you for listening, Mika!
Hmmm looks like you may have become moulded and might just be ready to bake…but first a little patience while we take it slow while we rise a little bit more. 😉
Wow! Your breads look amazing! Here’s to you feeling as amazing as your breads look! at least Gillis is bringing out some creativity and productivity for you and your writing isn’t suffering for it. Keep healing & sending a hug.
I loved this💖 the sourdough metaphors was just 👌 I hope you continue to heal and feel better💜 and I wholeheartedly agree that just plain resting and not doing much doesn’t really help, I’m more into the idea of the 7 types of resting, I don’t know if you’re familiar with it or not. Only one of them is physical rest. I love that you just started to write again and baking made you feel better and more connected to yourself and your family/friends
A great metaphor! Hopefully you are feeling better soon!
I want to start making my own bread soon and I love sourdough. This was a good reminder that it’s okay to mess up, it’s okay if it’s not perfect, and it’s okay if I need to take a break and come back later!
You had me at the title and never let me go. I hope you continue to heal and to write. Sending good vibes your way.
Thanks Derek!! I have continued to heal and write since I finished this post. Thank goodness
I'm glad you showed pup! And I love the whole sourdough metaphor.
Me too. I’m glad I’m here. Last week I didn’t fully want to be here but now I’m full on back this week!
I love your brain and the words that spill out of it. It’s great to have you back here and I’m glad this felt cathartic for you.
I always appreciate your real raw takes. And this metaphor was so damn clever.
Keep rising, girl 😘
I like how your brain works!!!
The starter named Richard omg brilliant 😂😂😂
I know! It’s so freaking funny. I’ve seen some people call theirs Jesus because he is risen hahahahah

This was a wonderful piece. Your breads look lovely. :)
Thank you for reading! And enjoying my breads even though you can’t eat them!
It might be the fasting speaking, but I really want some of that bread...
Oh gosh, yes! I love that bread is universal. Every culture has their own version of bread and it’s often shared among family.
You'll be back, I just know it in my soul.
Seeing you in yoga brings me back a little bit more each time!!
What a lovely comment, I so often think of what you must be experiencing and wanting you to be free from it, I care.
my favorite person on this app is back, thank you for taking care of yourself and coming back when you felt refreshed
Hi!!! I also know I haven’t scheduled that time with you yet! Wanna still talk?
Sure, check your IG DM.
….illness not Gillis (LOL!)

Thank you!!! Haha one day I will be as beautiful as my breads, just kidding :)
This is an intriguing metaphor, all the way through. Blessings in this flat season.
Thank you for reading it, Mary!
