Tulips, Rolls and Lemon Bars

Every once in a while, baking is prayer for me. Last Wednesday, these tulips and I filled our little home with a silent symphony of praise.

It is good to meditate on hope while waiting for yeast to do its work, to be adsorbed with lemon zest, and to watch, with quiet praise for their maker, the deft movements of my hands as they shape loaves and crusts into being.
