LOL Love fabric too! Used to quilt—don’t do much anymore except work and write.
Granny, I am so enjoying all the recipes—will bookmark for when I have time—after the spring rush!
Wild yeast spores are in the air everywhere and you can make your own sourdough starter by mixing flour, water and sugar and setting it outside to capture the spores. The reason San Fran is so renowned for it’s sd bread is becasue of the type of spores there. Another piece of useless trivia for you!
Yes, I knew that you could make it with wild yeast, but here we would find it worked as a bug catcher, so I make the yeast starter.
One Ladies night at the Kingman LDS Church, I sat in on the sour dough class and came away with a starter from Alaska, that was 125 years old.
I have lost my live version of it, but should have it saved in the old freezer, that I can’t reach with my oxygen hose.
I started playing with sour dough, about 1960.
I still shudder at the horrible soy flour bread that I made and expected my family to eat, cause some fool said it was good for them, talk about brainwashed.
But my brain is dirty again and I stay far away from soy products.
Do what I do, if I am thinking, I send myself a copy of the entire post or booklet, as now at Yahoo FREE email, you do not have a limit on the mailboxes, I can store all I want in it.
If it is really priceless, then I download it.........quit printing things out.
I just cannot trust these computers to keep things forever.
Mary and I worked well as a team, she loved to sew and could no longer do the cutting and I just loved fabric, so as I was younger, I did the cutting and she did the sewing.
I had not, until this minute, realized that I have done the same as Mary, she had a tiny room, with her sewing machine always set up, and when you visited that is where you sat.
Now I have my computer in the middle of the room and all that I might need is within reach and I never sit any place else.
We made many quilts, I sold them in my shop and we even did a custom order to Florida, a lady who read my flyer, that I had inclosed in an enquiry to the company she worked at, wanted a tan quilt with every color in it.......we used 3,000 patches to make the “Ocean Wave “ pattern.
