Cinnamon Bun WAYFARER BREAD Like cinnamon toast refracted through a three-way mirror, delicate laminations of spiced pastry seem to go on forever. Bite through the outer crust and let it shatter into pieces both in your mouth and on your lap. (You are not here to be delicate.) Then savor the soft inner center, the gooey, yielding heart of the bun. Sit, eyes closed. Reflect on the good decisions you’ve made. –SL
