Just living

This picture book is told from the perspective of a bakery owner who has run her shop for 13 years. Starting from her childhood love for kneading dough, it records the quiet daily routines of kneading, fermenting and baking. This tiny bakery holds countless gentle trivialities: a boy rushing for his schedule, a guest coming with their puppy to pick up desserts, regular customers who cannot take sugar. All kinds of ordinary people leave their little stories here. Ten years of days and nights pass by. The small shop witnesses meetings and partings, conveying that amid ordinary mortal life, every plain day is precious and vivid.
