I woke up early in the morning when I found my sister helping my mother to prepare the dough. My sister was pouring the warm water while my mother was mixing it with her kind hands. Meanwhile my brothers and sisters were awakened by the smell of flour to join me while watching my mother's work. After a few minutes the mix was ready so my mother covered it with a cloth. I like its smell.
We went to the other side of our house where the bundles of firewood are placed near the oven. My mother started to prepare the fire with wood and dry herbs and straw, watching if the dough was fermenting. After a while she started to cut the dough and we made big loaves from these small pieces.
Now the smell of the fresh bread is very strong because my mother is baking the loaves in the oven. She is calling on her loves and friends to come and try our delicious fresh bread.

I love to watch and kiss those tired hands over time and over days, and to feel their tenderness. My grandfather’s hands have their fragrant smell, and I’m used to seeing them with beads in his hands since I was born. Through those beads I see my grandfather’s love and reverence for his god. Through these black and decorated beads with their shiny string you will see and smell of faith and love for the next generations.
