Bread x 2

Hey eveyone,
Hope ya'll have been great. Been awhile since I posted. Miss everybody!! Did up a double batch of sourdough for this weekend. Gave the boule away to some friends. We kept the oval loaf. Starting to give away bread and get feedback. So far all is great and people seem to be enjoying my bread. Could this mean a micro bakery?? MMMMMM...I think so!!

I still love experimenting though!

Enjoy!
