Publisher's Synopsis
Being naked should be the easiest thing in the world. After all, we are all born this way. Yet society covers us up within minutes of arriving on this planet - wanting us to be safe and warm. Ideally, not naked again ever unless we were in private. Growing up in southern Africa, not being naked also extended to the way we were raised and were expected to behave. Forget the British stiff upper lip; southern African men had to be physically and emotionally tough. Women had to look after their families, do most of the cooking and baking using family recipes and have dinner ready as soon as their husbands arrived home. There was no time to talk about your feelings. Stereotypes sure. But how do you move forward after a tough break-up or bereavement? It was time to get back to being real and that meant getting naked baking.
