❁ Welcome! ❁
I'm happy to have you here! Thank you for visiting and I hope you enjoy my blog.
Well the first attempt at making Mary Jane's sourdough bread was a bust. I don't know what the problem was exactly. So I posted on the forum for any tips.
I'll try again if I can figure out what went wrong. The baking powder might have been old. I have no idea how baking powder works in recipes so I have to look into that.
My birthday was yesterday. All I wanted was prayers from my family for my good health.
I was in a cleaning mode today. Very busy and made me happy. I need to work on getting seeds for spring. Time to plant soon. Also trying to plan out my garden. I'm thinking this year it's going to be quite haphazard, but I'll try to make it as nice as possible. It's our first year for this garden in our yard, and also we've got limited funds. I just want to prevent the animals from chomping our veggies.
Yesterday I started making the sourdough starter from MJF's article from this month's magazine. Day 2 already and it's smelling doughy. My son said it has a weird but good smell. haha I tend to agree.
Today I went to the grocery store; saw Mother Earth News and flipped through it. There was an article about building your own home for $10K. That seems a little unrealistic, but even if we spent $50k and built our own home, we'd have a really unique and special home.
I've seen articles like these before, and end up buying the magazine for them because it starts me to dream. I would really love to build a home one day that has tons of charming personality. I'm trying to start learning with this house we're in. It doesn't have a lot of unique features, but I can make the outside nice, and we can do a few things in the inside to give this home a little TLC. It had been empty for so long before we got it.
Today I bought some organic flour in preparation to start making "the mother" sourdough starter for the bread recipe that was in the Mary Jane Farm magazine this month.
