I made my first focaccia last weekend...a very wet dough:) I loved it! Makes me bolder...I decorated with what I had,olive,avo oil & lemon juice. Hugs and my advice is to do it:) Used Pantry Mama recipe and a lot of BF in a cold kitchen in Nor Cali (overnight in fridge cuz I like it sour) π₯π
Hi:) Got a big sourdough bake planned for this weekend. It's sooo helpful to work with your hands? Stretch and Folds and Coils are my favorite part. Fed starters tonight:) Happy Baking...ya know, in a coup d'etat? Stay Safe...
Peeps asking me if the program I work for, ya know, taking care of Elders, is safe? My answer: No Clue, but think OK, for today. I haven't gotten an email from children. π to all facing their jobs being exterminated. Your experience can't be replaced. Anywho, I feed my sourdough starter tonight.
Hugs from California! This is FUNNY, and TRUE:)
So, this is going around...I gotta say if it quacks like a facist... Not on it. Stay Cool, peeps...we got a long road ahead. π
So, I'm a horsey girl:) My Mommy paid the babysitter, Emily, to teach me at 7. I passed the tests and learned how, animal husbandry, and Little Bit came into my life, just preggers. YES! I said, I can handle it! It wouldn't have happened unless a beautiful community of horse peeps in BO. Apple Dandy

Get WATCH DUTY! Proud to say local NorCali First Responders on the front lines in SoCal & volunteers are manning, no glitches this life saving free app.
Released in Lake County, CA, 4 or 5 years ago? ...a life changer. Available in many states. FREE download it from Apple/Google Play. STAY Safe. β£οΈ
Biggest Sourdough 1 day bake! Got bagels, raisin swirl and sandwich bread rising:) Wish me LUCK? Time management in a cold kitchen. BF happening on seedling pad and in micro w/hot h2o bottle. ππ₯ππ₯―
PS? Watch Duty is a lifesaver. Speaking from experience from Lake County, CA where we burn every year, sadly. Watch Duty is a free app. Please, get it? And, don't go putting peeps down for abandoning cars. My community is littered with burned out cars and houses. Most people lived. They got out.
World? Fires. Lemme say this. Evacuating from a fire is terrifying. The smoke is so thick, the fear is so deep. Getting out is all that matters. To all in So Cal impacted, or know someone that is, I care... Please, STAY SAFE. β£οΈ
I left a loaf for 3 days in the fridge...it was yummy and sour! Not the spring though... It was still delicious bread! ππ₯
Today I made Sourdough sandwich bread for first time. Lemme say I was nervous! I babyed this baby and got a great result! My first time not scoring:) Lemme know if want recipe? Used a 25% milk, avo oil and honey and trusted the RISE process. Happy! ππ₯
I meant 12/23/24... π€£π
Happy New Year, World!HUGE RIDE at Mavericks (12/23/25)... In 2025, I vow to get over to the Mighty Pacific more often and do more contemplation about how nature is powerful and beautiful and that harmony is possible:) Hugs from Nor Cali π
Beautiful! I luv'd our call:) Hello, 2025... π
Swirl worked....Whew ππ₯
I'm up in Lake County now...but Bo/Stin still HOME! π₯°
Done! Except the cooling, and, ya know, scary part of cutting into it! ππ₯
Absolutely! I added 5 spice to dough and some orange extract when soaking raisons:) sourdoughbrandon.com/sourdough-oa...
I hate when they call Bolinas, CA "quirky".... Pissed! When you lose your Post Office in a rural community, Elders and peeps needing their Rx's suffer. Could happen to a small town, anywhere. π₯
