The Passing of a Faithful Scale ๐Ÿชฆ
She came cheap and stayed strong. The little rubber feet on the bottom gave up the ghost a long time ago. Sheโ€™s gone through dozens of batteries. Sheโ€™s been wiped down after a thousand sticky-finger weighings and she never complained once.
She weighed every loaf I baked, every levain I built, every gram of salt and water and flour that became something worth eating. She didnโ€™t ask for much. Just a flat surface and a fresh battery now and then.
But today, a new scale arrived. And as it goes with everything in this kitchen and in this life, the old gives way to the new. The circle continues.
Sheโ€™ll be missed.
If youโ€™ve got a few words for my faithful old scale, leave them in the comments. Pour one out for the bakersโ€™ workhorses that quietly carry us through.
R.I.P., old friend. You weighed true.
