Weather cooled off so waking up the sourdough starter and fired a couple of boules. Apparently the oven is running hot as the first loaf on the upper left is a bit dark.

Two loaves of sourdough bread in the form of boules. One loaf on the upper left is quite dark and is a bit over baked due to high heat. The bottom right loaf appears to be baked correctly with nice blistering on the crust.

Cocktails before the San Francisco Gay Mens Chorus performance tonight. This was a delightful Monterey with Weller Reserve at the Bottle Club Pub.

Daylight savings time emptied my sleep tank but found the energy to make our weekly loaf of sandwich/toast bread.

I am amazed that this loaf is edible for a week after baking with no preservatives added.

Second attempt at recreating Starter Bakery’s loaf of Olive Oil Sourdough bread. Getting closer with this loaf… the crumb looks good but the top crust cracked, so maybe more time proofing.

Trying to recreate the Starter Bakery Olive Oil Sourdough bread. Got maybe 75% of the way there. Not mad about the first attempt.
