"The 'Golden Crumb' – A New Breakfast Sensation!" The words jumped off the food blog screen. Roger, a retired chef, recognized his own creation. He'd given the recipe to a young, aspiring cook years ago.

Roger was practically buzzing with an inner happiness. He felt energized. He had to try it. He had to see it.

He drove straight to the cafe, a huge grin plastered across his face. The cafe was packed. He ordered the 'Golden Crumb.' It was exactly as he'd made it! He felt a warmth spread through him as he watched others devour it. He felt deeply satisfied.
