tyler walk with me @tylerhuckabee.bsky.social

my dad has taken up baking in retirement and, realizing he didn’t know his neighbors, started going door to door with fresh bread. he’s made tons of friends. a music producer who now invites him over to listen to old records. a guy in the final stages of a terminal illness who isn’t alone anymore.

This sounds like the premise to the feel good movie of the summer. Bread For This. Or maybe, By Bread Alone. 😼

Or we could go dark -- a group of retirees smuggle drugs in loaves of bread. The series would be called, Breaking Bread.
