(Don't talk with your mouth full)

The end of the latest "pig" bread saga is rather boring. On Sunday afternoon, we went to the bakery and our bread was laid out on the counter. We packed up the loaves, paid our 92 kuai, and left. (Well, we also bought some butter.)(The butter is... interesting. Unsalted, of course, and far more orange than the stuff at home. But it seems to work.)

The loaves were bigger than the test loaf of the night before, but still only about a third of the size of your typical loaf of sandwich-size bread that you'd buy in the States. It also cost more than what we spent in our first bread adventure. Of course, if you tell yourself that it's only fifty cents U.S., then you can justify the cost to yourself. Plus the clerk gave Siu Wan a free treat from the display case. Can't beat service like that...
