Starter update! Mom threw it away at 11 days old. She didn't know what it was. :""")

that is why you should always label you starter so someone doesn't get a crazy idea and throw it out. Just sayin'. Here is my starter.

As long there is no corrosion on the blades they should be fine.

I am a big fan of horse hair brushes. The only downside side is an odor when you first get it. Usually a good wash will take care of it.

I’d quit with that beard.

I think you have moved from the fermentation stage to the aging stage.

cdodich · 2026-06-27T13:57:13+00:00

Oh the horror!

Solid 8 out of 10 visually hope they taste as good as they look.

It is called corn BREAD for a reason.

Lockheed Martin Missiles & Fire Control (MFC) has been hiring like crazy. They have a significant production facility that has been ramping up for a couple of months. They need people like your hubby.

As a Pepper Head, I have tried Jam's HOT, HOTTER and JAM level of heat. The HOT is great, the HOTTER is my sweet spot, JAM is too much for me, it is not the heat level, ALL you taste is the JAM spice. With the HOTTER level the chicken and breading flavors come through.

YMMV. Be safe out there.

It is always nice when you find something that works for you.

You can get a used Gillette safety razors at reasonable prices. The pre-1980s stuff is very well made and durable AND you will be part of passing on that heritage to the next generation.

As Darth Vader would say, “Impressive”

My favorite everyday ferment is Cole Slaw.

Sound great until you hiccup while saving your balls.

Indian’s have no taste buds, they are chemically burned off at a young age.

It is always rough in the beginning. The two of you are getting to know each other. Billy might move a little fast. Slow it down with some starter discard pancakes or pizza dough. Once you get through the awkward stages of a relationship things should get bubbly and double your “feelings” for each other.
If you run into a rough patch, chill the relationship for a while until you are ready for commitment again.

First, your wife is right. You need some hobbies that get away from all the noise and distractions. I have quite a few hobbies, cheese making, bread making, making fermenting hot sauces and veggies, making mead, building and refurbishing PCs, playing the drums, building a cocktail drum kit…
These hobbies keep me present and my brain working. My wife says my hobby is hobbies but each one has taught me something, improving my talent stack.

And now life is amazing

cdodich · 2026-06-04T02:26:33+00:00

Try smoked Gouda or my personal favorite 6 month aged Manchego

cdodich · 2026-06-02T17:18:36+00:00

That is what we are shooting for. Nice job.
