Our daily bread
Eleanor Zurowski
04.12-10.12 '17
For one week Elly brought us some bread.
In return Peach and Tor Jonsson cooked every evening and invited friends to share bread and food.
(this last picture was at a thanksgiving dinner at a friend house, we did not cook all this but we brought some bread with us!)
