I’m sure you’ve heard the saying, “If you haven’t used [a thing] in 2 years, and you don’t anticipate needing it in the next year, get rid of it.” Well, I would say I consistently work at streamlining stuff, knowing what I have and why I have it, and getting rid of the stuff that Continue reading

Sourdough
A few weeks ago, one of my friends gave me some sourdough starter.
