Bread


Today was a glorious windy, sunny day. Made sourdough pancakes for breakfast and 2 loaves of sourdough bread. My Mom gave me the starter about 2 weeks ago. You have to feed it and stir it for 10 days then you can make yummy goodies. That is why A and I went for a 2 hr walk today. We met Mike's futre MIL on Sunday. A very nice and sweet lady. Not sure if she was able to get a word in edgewise..take care...
