Recipe

Bread: flour, water, yeast and sugar. Mix, knead, bake - simple, bland, boring. So add some spice: garlic, onion, oregano, or sweet: honey, cranberries, nuts. Add some love - cradle it, keep it warm, have six anxious "parents" keep it from burning.

Crew: desert, mountains, cities, midwest. Spice: dance, guitar, youth, experience, fresh eyes. Sweet: shared coffee, 12 dish hands, laughter. Add compassion - open minds, shared experiences, common goals. Huddled under a tarp out of the rain or setting down tools and basking in the first sun in days. Each day a new, mouthwatering, shared experience.

Take the best ingredients, mix with love and time. The results becoming so much more than the sum of the parts.
