As someone who believes food is more fuel than pleasure, John has never been much interested in its creation. To him, cooking is a mysterious activity carried on in another realm that is not photography, bicycles or computers. So it was with amazement that I learned, a few weeks into pandemic isolation, that my partner of nearly 50 years had heard the call of the bread-making hordes. The most unlikely males of the neighbourhood were turning to baking; Facebook acquaintances were peppering the site with their golden loaves. Whether from boredom or a desperation for something new, John expressed interest in joining the action.
