During our childhood in Goa, the baker used to be our friend, companion and guide. He used to come at least twice a day. Once, when he set out in morning on his selling round, and then again, when he returned after emptying his huge basket. The jingling thud of his bamboo woke us up from sleep and ran to meet and greet him. Why was it so ? Was it for the love of the loaf? Not at all. The loaves were brought by some Paskine or Bastine, the maid-servant of the house! What we longed for were those bread-bangles which we chose carefully. Sometimes \u00a1t was sweet bread of special make.<\/em><\/p>\n
