Sample of my Hippie Flower Child Bonafides #foundobject #memorabilia #cookbook
I risked a lot to leave Michigan and go to college in California in 1970. Not least was running away from home the previous April to hitch hike around the state and look at colleges. Having never been to CA and locked into a death match with my parents (aka funders) over where I would attend college (they wanted Georgetown) I knew a world I wanted, awaited me, but I also wasn’t 100% sure. One of my first things in the dorm was learning how to make bread - it became a metaphor for my freedom and independence, knowing I could survive on my own abilities. Plus! Little did I know how delicious warm baked bread slathered with butter and honey was! Can you say +10pounds??? Every ounce was worth it. I just found this book that I have had for 40 + years. And memories flooded in, nourishing me in their own essence. Love, Rox
