A Question

  David was questioning a recipe he had received for pizza dough, whether it was correct to add salt to the yeast mixture. I mentioned that my mother used to make the best bread I'd ever eaten, and that the aroma of her baking bread would fill the  street, and neighbors and Sara's customers would ask her for a loaf of that bread.

   Just  a short and simple remark on my part, but Madeleine, sitting nearby, asked , "What was your mother's name?"
