XO, The Bakers
Dear Jacque and Bakers--
I hope this soulful event continues for years to come. If I've received a loaf but might not be able to be at the downtown events, is it cool to break bread with others in the name of "Bread?"

We are so excited! A friend had mentioned first night to me on Tuesday and I went online and read about Bread and thought "how cool" won't it be neat to have the fairies deliver your special bread on New Year's Eve morning. Then another friend and I had lunch on Thursday and he invited my husband, 15 mo old son and I to join him and his family as well as several others since he and his wife were big First Night fans in Boston. Again, I thought "wouldn't it be cool" to receive a loaf and mentioned the work to my husband as we got ready for bed on 12/30.
And would you believe it - as we were getting ready to go to Zilker this morning for a quick park trip before Noah's mid day nap - my husband came in and said "I have a big surprise for you" and he brought in a loaf! HOW exciting! I called my friend and he reminded me to wear white -we are all looking forward to the ceremony and hope others will come as well!
The hardest part is to find something white to wear? The "why white" conversation is occurring: bakers and white outfits? purity? floured bodies? butoh? I feel honored to be asked to participate-- now to find something white. JB
Thanks! That was really fun. I think we threw our bread crumbs too early, but we had a great time in the processional!
What a surprise to receive this loaf, we accepted our role, bought some white clothes and geared up the family and bikes for downtown adventure. It was fun and that bread was deeeliicious... Happy New Year everyone!! Receive. Gather. Share. Resolve.
Hi Austin,
Thank you all for your amazing stories about BREAD. It was incredible to be with you downtown last night and hear about your experiences RECEIVING BREAD as we GATHERED together for the parade. I hope everyone got to SHARE their loaf and RESOLVE! Please continue to SHARE your stories here!
Love,
The Bakers
Hi JB,
Why "white" you ask? Good question!
With many answers.
White is a color associated with ritual in many cultures, and BREAD brings together diverse people from all over Austin to engage in a public ritual of hope.
White is also the color of many things associated with baking, such as flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, sugar, and even chef's aprons!
Wearing all one color in the parade also unified us as a community of artists, artisans, citizens, hopers, believers, and dreamers.
BREAD HAS COME.
HAPPY NEW YEAR.
Love,
The Bakers

A series of low-energy treatments with a "plasma skin regeneration tool" to banish wrinkles seems to be equally effective as a single, high-energy blast but with less healing time for patients.
