Karen Huang Our Daily Bread Novels & Stories

Inside, Katherine and Carol sat barefoot on the living room rug, half-sunk into a pile of cushions with two mugs of tea between them and an open container of biscotti that was already half gone. Katherine was in her softest hoodie, her hair tied in a messy bun. Carol wore pajama shorts and an oversized T-shirt that said Mondays are for Chocolate. It had been a quiet day at The Quiet Brew—the kind of rainy Wednesday where only the regulars showed up, grateful for the calm.

The rest of the week has been a testament to my determination not to end up in a ball sobbing over a man, and on some level, I feel a misplaced sense of pride that I have managed to achieve just that. Saturday is the busiest day of the week for Bread, and I am witnessing it first-hand as I help out Bea and Lorna, our Saturday girl. The same age as I am, Lorna is doing a culinary apprenticeship and works with us for extra money. We chat in between serving customers, and I find we actually have a lot in common.

"Thank you, Mom. I promise I'll be careful and not overdo it." Karen hugged her daughter back, feeling a sense of pride and love for her strong and determined child. "I know you will, sweetie. Now, let's get ready and head to the bakery. We've got a lot of work to do today!" Nicole and Karen arrived at the bakery, ready to start their day. They worked together, measuring out ingredients and mixing batter. The aroma of freshly baked bread and pastries filled the air as they slid trays into the oven. Nicole felt a sense of comfort and familiarity in the bakery, enjoying the time spent with her mother. As they worked, the bakery transformed into a warm and inviting space, filled with the sweet

Three salty and one soup, very rich, all are some food to nourish the stomach, although it is frugal, but it also looks like you want to eat it, it is indeed a hundred thousand times better than a boxed lunch. Ten minutes later, Sweet Pea Guun brought hot food into the office, his phone lit up, showing a WeChat message. Sweet Pea Guun took the phone to unlock it, and discovered that Brene Brian had sent him four messages. It's very difficult for Brene Brian to reply to a message every day, as long as the table doesn't actively contact, Sweet Pea Guun curiously clicks open. Brene Brian: Got it? Brene Brian: Sweet Pea Guun, eat rice.

Christiana wiped the sweat off her forehead,exhaling a deep breath as she pulled another tray of freshly baked bread from the hot oven.The scent of warm dough filled the small bakery mixing with the faint aroma of coffee and sugar.She had been working since morning, her hands covered in flour, her feet aching from standing from hours. But despite the tiredness,She forced herself to keep going. She had no choice. The job at the bakery was all She had.After being thrown out by Alexander and his mother,She had wandered the street , hold ing Praise to her chest.

After being praised by Kevin, she simply smiled and turned back to the kitchen and busied herself for a while. After eating the noodles, Kevin walked in and asked, "What are you busy with?" Karen turned back and smiled at him. "Didn't you say that you have to fly to Hill City early in the morning? I made some pastries and sushi last night. I've put them in the thermal lunch box. Take them with you later and eat them whenever you're hungry." Karen knew that Kevin was trying hard to be a good husband and she also wanted to be a good wife, but she didn't know how to play the role of a good wife.

I hadn't taken any meal since I woke up two days ago,all nutrients administered by the healers through a special process. "Karen, what did I say about coming around here?" Zane asked almost in a whisper. His eyes slighted narrowly as he looked up at Karen. "Oh come on, don't be a kill joy. I got this meal made from the deepest part of my heart. Don't reject it, will you," she said, smiling. There was just something about Karen's smile that I just couldn't comprehend. It just didn't ring true, but that was it. She looked nice.

He simply followed behind Hannah as she led the way to the place with the supposedly great food. Eventually, they arrived at a bakery. “We’re here.” Kevin frowned as he read the sign that said The Daily Knead in a rather tacky font. “Here? Just bread?” he complained. “What’s wrong with bread? The bread here is pretty good.” Hannah grabbed Kevin by the wrist and pulled him inside. A bell chimed as they entered. The bakery wasn’t very busy, as usual for this hour.
