I started re-reading the book that celebrates its 7 year anniversary this year, 'Big Little Lies', because I had made it halfway through a year or two back and got sidetracked reading and doing other things, so when I picked it up again to finish I had to start from the beginning again, as I had forgotten a lot of what I had previously read and didn't want to mix up what I had seen from watching the TV series and what I had previously read.
But as I read the first page again in 2021 I couldn't help but notice all of the news stories in the media about cake ... or bread ... or croissants.

Crescent-shaped breads have been made since the Renaissance, and crescent-shaped cakes possibly since antiquity.
The modern croissant was developed in the early 20th century.
In the late 1970s, the development of factory-made, frozen, pre-formed but unbaked dough made them into a fast food that can be freshly baked by unskilled labor.
I stumbled across the 'Two Rad Chicks' Bakery when doing a net search for the 'Two Rad Chicks' podcast the other day when writing up this post -
Two Rad Chicks and a Ladder, Boring Conversations and Climbing Mt Warning/Wollumbin?

Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we Di ... and the candles are soon all blown out?
I guess this is the sort of post I was bound to write after skipping breakfast;-)
