First, the title for my blog came from a project in Analysis of War and Peace while a student at Manchester College. One of our books for the class was The Moral Imagination by John Paul Lederach, and each of us was assigned a chapter to present to the class. My chapter dealt with what Lederach calls critical yeast: the necessary amount of committed people, resources, motivation, etc. to bring a social movement to fruition. As a bread baker, I thought it a good play on words; an appropriate link of what sometimes feels like two different lives.
As I mentioned in the About Me section, I'm writing this blog to keep you, glorious readers, updated on my travels, ideas, and experiences while in Brethren Volunteer Service. I'll likely post some updates beforehand, but I can't promise a specific schedule! You might even find a few recipes as well ... But for now, sit back, relax, and enjoy the summer!
