dolorous interludes.

morning ambrosia.

I felt happy for the first time in a long while last night- the slight breeze at 4 am carried with it a curious fragrance that led me to the delightful dough scented bakery. While the world was asleep, the uncles were hard at work- loafs of bread fresh from the stone steel ovens were left to cool in a corner while the rest were sliced with such precision it left me in awe. Baskets of fresh whites were lifted into vans while trays of leftovers were displayed to tempt passersby like me. And just why would I resist? I bought sweet bread and walked to the market I haven’t visited in years for a hot cup of horlicks. It was a delightful morning, one that left me lazy and content for the rest of today.
