Fellow bakers - if you are thinking of keeping a starter, splurge on the adorable KAF starter crock - it is very worth it! It makes me happy every time I see it in my fridge and reminds me to get another loaf started! I have my crock in the cellar fridge - that way it's not looking at me and making me feel guilty for not feeding it EVERY time I open the (upstairs) fridge, but it does make me pause when I get my drinks down cellar... Anyway, sourdough is amazingly forgiving, don't you think? All it needs is food and drink every few weeks, and it's ready to make anything from bread to chocolate cake (actually one of my favorite uses for starter). Enjoy, Sara - PJH
