Sour Dough Update


Well it's been a week since I began my 
The flour and water was making lots of "hootch" each day,
but not much else.  
I was starting to get a little frustrated,
when finally today I saw some bubbling!


I see a few bubbles on the side of the jar.
The starter is supposed to be full of bubbles throughout
and start to foam up on the top when it's ready.


I am hoping within the next day or so
I will be able to put the starter in the fridge,
make my first "sponge",
and then my first loaf of sour dough bread.
Stay tuned. :-)
