It is what's called a pre-ferment, and it adds mature dough flavor. Trust me, it's good. I keep some in the refrigerator (in a smaller covered bowl) and add flour and water all the time to the old stuff. The key here is to read the book - the most...
I'm surprised that the bear settled for the chicken feed and not the chickens!
I'm looking forward to hearing the Extreme Makeover story too!
Ah, male stripper pants. I think Carhartt makes a nice pair of those.
Beautiful cross-section! I love how dark and rich and luscious the garden is above the sand!
Two things. Wow! That's one cute bear! But that would terrify me if I saw it in my yard.
Secondly, Extreme Makeover. I can't wait for that story.
I realized I forgot to tell you all about my adventures with bears. Our town is home to a robust black bear population, and an adolescent male recently developed a taste for my chicken feed. On his first visit, he ripped a hole in the run, so I pa...
I do this, but it's also where the chickens run, so they help break it down AND add their poo. All that scratching and pooing do a great job over the winter.
I also run over my leaves with the mulcher mower and dig them into the garden before the...
Ugh. It was not a great canning year. No tomatoes (thank you, blight), but lots of applesauce, dried leeks, canned wild blackberry jam and preserves, canned rhubarb chutney, and both canned and frozen blueberries. I have potatoes hilled outside, c...

The Turnip Truck (a chapter from last winter)
In the deep midwinter, I am getting tired of root vegetables. I can only cook
rutabagas, turnips, parsnips, carrots, and potatoes so many different ways.
Roasted, pureed, French fried, buttered, braised, whizzed into soup, I’ve
exhausted my repertoire. In an attempt to break out of my rut, I made a Dutch
dish… Continue

Maybe they should have something like pay to read a blog ooh one better a yearly fee to read the blog. You could make more money than just on the org book. Sorry I am rambling. LMK

Just to let you know we really enjoy your blog posts here in NC. This year we are going to get some chickens and try to raise a flock. We admire you for what you have accomplished. That is a truly beautiful area you live in although the winters are harsh. Here in nc where we live spring is near, the frogs are peeping in our front yard pond, wood ducks are starting to stake out their nests. Our plum tree's are blooming, pear tree's are blooming. And guess what we are expecting 6 inches of snow and one inch of ice tonight.
In 2004 my two sons hiked the Appalichian trail starting in North Ga and finishing at Mount Katahdin Maine, 2,174 miles of backpacking. They both mentioned in their online journal the place I think is near you. One place was a local swimming hole where local kids were jumping off a bridge and an old country store where they stopped to re-supply, I'm pretty sure it was the Lyme Country store, Anyway if I can dig out the photo's I'll post them.
Again we enjoy your posts
