An odd term for something
so precious. In France it is
called a corbeille à pain.

That means, a bread basket,
but the French tended not to
let their baguettes go stale.

Pandora was the Greek
lady created by the gods,
her box was full of gifts.

She was according to legend,
the first human being on earth,
no mention of bread in her box.
