           I was just now indulging in one of my favorite sports, that is, clicking on the pics of co-lenders  to see who had had the good sense to jump on one of my loans (smile), and I happened upon this pic in one of my co-lenders' portfolios.  I just thought it was a neat pic.

I tend to like those who seem almost to busy with their work to bother a picture being taken.

Bread is such a staple in all of our lives and I have loved the photos in this thread...

I was very interested in reading the latest Fellows' blog from Ghana...

http://fellowsblog.kiva.org/2008/07/25/the-expectation-of-innovation/

where she talked about... "Take the sale of bread, for instance. Generally speaking, there are 4 types of bread in Ghana: sugar bread, tea bread, butter bread, and brown bread (all of which are delicious). And on any given commercial street in Cape Coast, you’ll likely find one or two bread stands, two or three breakfast stands, and seven or more general stores, all selling some combination of these four breads. Why, I’ve wondered, if bread is so popular, does no one experiment with other types of bread?" 

and then went on to tallk about how difficult that might be.

I've lent to a few bakers. I like their loans because I can identify with their product!

Here are some of them:

http://www.kiva.org/app.php?page=businesses&action=about&id=31525 (Lebanon)

http://www.kiva.org/app.php?page=businesses&action=about&id=31604 (Lebanon)

http://www.kiva.org/app.php?page=businesses&action=about&id=52032 (Afghanistan)

http://www.kiva.org/app.php?page=businesses&action=about&id=53692 (Tajikistan)

http://www.kiva.org/app.php?page=businesses&action=about&id=55290 (Peru)

http://www.kiva.org/app.php?page=businesses&action=about&id=56787 (Peru)

These loans made me want to rush out to my nearest bakery and treat myself to something warm and sweet!
