Raisin Bread

A loud "ding!" rings through the air. Clear and distinct in the crisp early morning atmosphere. I reach my hand into the toaster and pull it out. It's both warm and hot to the touch. Toasty on the outer layer but softer and warmer in the middle. It smells crisp, fresh and sweet. The butter I spread on it melts and seeps into the soft white middle. I bite into it and feel the crisp sweet crust. I taste the soft white butter soaked fluff and the sticky sweet jam that swirls through it. Suddenly my taste buds detect a stronger sweet bit wrapped in a soft round piece. As my teeth sink into it the fruity bit bursts with flavor onto the soft and toasted slab. It tastes as fresh as it smells. The smooth tender sensations in my mouth fill me with delight. The creamy saltiness of the butter matches the sticky sweet jam and fruity bits in a way no other food can. Bite after bite is simply delight in the simplicity of the little snack. Then the perfect little snack is soon over and I am left licking the scrumptious crumbs from my piece of raisin bread.
