You are breaking my heart, Rod. I bake bread at least once every week, often more. Last week my 12-year-old high-quality oven burned up it's main circuit board, and the repair folks say there no longer are replacements. My oven is deaf. So I picked up a large, inexpensive counter-top convection oven--essentially a toaster on steroids--to bake with until I can rearrange my kitchen and replace my range. I serusly doubt my bread will be up to the quality what I have gotten used to, so please send a fresh loaf to me once in a while as mail art, just to keep my spirits up.
Sorry to rub salt into a wound already stinging Dan but the goat's cheese sandwich I made this morning was so delicious I found myself forced to repeat the edible action:-) But baker me sends sincere sympathy that your are reduced to a c-t-c-o. Would that I could send you a loaf... I could send you the recipe for when you are restored to full bakability proper, I could post that here, but you'd have to keep it a secret for, should the mail-art world start baking 'the bread of Rod' a multitude of bakers would go out of business and I'm not sure my conscience could bear that:~).... Dan!
Dan, your heart of rose is beautiful and uplifting, thanks for that.
Here, the extra cold, many days and nights below 0°F - 17°C, suggested a hearty carrot & other vegetable filled meatloaf, yes, with the egg. Come on in. Today is "warmer" for walking over here, low 30°'s/1°'s.
In the east side and middle of New York State, our usual for March high temperatures is 25°/-4° - 45°/7°.

Due chiacchere fra pochi amici intelligenti. Sto leggendo un libricino sull'arte contemporanea... che mi ha fatto riflettere, un po' tutti noi che siamo diventati in parte web artisti, a mio opinabile parere, abbiamo la possibilità di raggruppare sul web il nostro lavoro, la nostra poetica, facilitando sia la comunicazione che il metodo di lavorare, poiché internet non mette fretta, si può lavorare quando e come si vuole, intanto il messaggio continua a girare, guardando il mio lavoro che è in rete avverto che tutto il mio eclettico lavoro viene unificato dalla rete... "io sono quella cosa lì" la mia poetica è la miriade di immagini che scorre e si consuma nella rete... e che viene fuori a volte a sorpresa, cercando "mail art contemporanea" e addirittura cercando" land art in Italia"... si può pretendere di più ?
In Greece, Russia, and Spain,etc. Jan. 6 is big festive, gift-giving Three Kings Day/ Epiphany/ "Ta Fota" (the light) holiday. There will be jumping in the cold sea to catch the cross at the blessing-of-the-waters. And tomorrow is a big feast day for Agios Yiannis, so more celebrations. With the weekend, more visits and feasting, so perhaps on Sunday night, or Monday morning, the lights and decorations come down. And surely there will be Holiday Mail Art arriving still next week :-)

That looks yummy, Rod!
I'll take a piece and have a nice soothing cup of Tilio (Linden) tea
to calm me before going to sleep (after midnight here in Greece now :-)
