Re: Gumbo's Pic of the Day, Oct 21, 2014: Maltese Bread
My wife sometimes believes that my main photo subjects are bread, fruit and veg, and birds perched on statues, so it's nice to know someone else appreciates how beautiful bread is, and how easy it is to smell it and taste just by looking at a great picture like this!

Maltese bread is something special. I'd certainly use it as an excuse, if you need one PHeymont, to visit Malta. Wonderful photo, IslandMan.

I also love a fresh loaf of bread. When it's just right, it's easy to make a meal of just bread and butter. I have great sympathy for those who can't eat gluten. I'm not sure I'd find life worth living without fresh baked goods.

Walking the narrow streets of Valletta - past the small shops that sell freshly cooked food and cakes. The smell of Coffee from the Cafes and Restaurants. And the smell of new leather. Brings back all the memories of wonderful Malta.

Re: Waiting for Dinner, Krakow
The 'lard with bacon bits' is common across much of northern and eastern Europe. The Germans call it Griebenschmalz, the Austrians Grammelschmalz. The English expression is pork dripping (but it often does not contain the 'bits'). You can make it yourself - you will find instructions online.
