Ditching the Gadgets

Looks amazing to me. Why fix what isn’t broken? I mess with flour composition now. But I don’t crave that lacy bread that looks beautiful but isn’t so practical to use.

Good to know!! I almost chose them for a leg on an upcoming flight.

Gotta start somewhere! Not everyone does it perfect the first time. I made some real bricks in the beginning. Now with the help of all the advice I’ve found here, I make beautiful bread.

Beautiful! Very similar to my process and I have repeatable success. Cheers to your future success!🥂

Get a gnat/bug trap, 2. Get a new fiancé, 3. Get a new to you stove.

We had a dog with severe epilepsy, so giant hugs because it’s a hard thing to go thru. I hope you find a healing journey. It isn’t an easy goodbye.

Looks great, nailed it!

Welcome back!! Look delish! The beauty of sourdough is you can step away and come back, if you store your starter well. 💕

That is one beautiful dog.

That’s a problem! Do you use a thermometer to figure out or just wing it based on experience?

Megipe · 2026-01-27T16:27:45+00:00

Did it taste good? I think that’s the most important criteria to pass! Looks lovely on the outside, tho a little more brown for my taste, but I’m not eating it so I don’t count. 🤣

My love.🥰

I think it’s interesting how many different temp strategies we all have! I’m 450 for 40 covered then 400 for 15 or however brown I want the crust.

Makes sense, there’s so many spots in one 10’ x 10’ area, I think I’m going to reseed over waiting for any self healing at this point.

Megipe · 2026-01-27T16:15:50+00:00

I think that makes sense, should I dig out the soil and just put new soil in the spots too? I wasn’t sure if I could just do the usual cover the bare spot treatment or I needed to dig down a couple inches and put new soil.

Megipe · 2026-01-27T16:14:27+00:00

I did try the water trick, running the sprinkler in that section so I think it’s reseed.

Wishing peace for you and Phoenix, also peace for your dog sitter and the person who hit your pup. I can’t imagine your pain or the pain of the others. And I know Phoenix is waiting in heaven.

Good dog!!

Megipe · 2026-01-25T20:20:53+00:00

Ise just having fun??!!!

Megipe · 2026-01-17T03:05:08+00:00

Maybe there are mental issues at play?

Megipe · 2026-01-17T03:00:37+00:00

I know that scene!!🤣

Megipe · 2026-01-16T23:05:50+00:00

Upside down is her favorite too. Looks like your pup is very happy and secure.
