I was wondering and wrote about it
Last year I started a daily blog last August. So this year I’m doing it again. You can count on this being journal-ey, journalistic?, well whatever, this is a personal spot for me to share. So I can whinge a bit about things.
This is also a personal test of using SQLite as the back-end for a WordPress blog. So you can expect something involving photos. But so far it does work.
And my birthday is coming up, so Yay!
“Oh no, I can’t do that. I have to be in Salem.”
“It’s Saturday.”
“Oh.”
Yes, it is Saturday. A day to relax. If you’re not retired. And I am.
I need a place to relax. So here I am.
Welcome!
Because they shelter other animals in their burrows. This means survival to Australians. Read about it here.
This is a place to share successes. Yet, without mistakes and failures, you don’t learn. After my first “good” loaf I took off on changing things. I had failures. Yet, I don’t know enough about the bread process to know just where I went wrong.
I think part of it was too wet dough. But was I using a starter that wasn’t fully ready yet? For a loaf we wanted to eat I had to return to the basics. Verify the starter by float testing it. Verify the dough by measuring everything out completely and not futzing with it later. I did both of these things yesterday.
And gee, just like Jack says, it works. It works well. Really well. On to repeating it!
