It's where someone gives you a bag of starter batter and you need to squeeze it a few time once a day for a few days, then add more ingredients to the batter, then squeeze it again for a few more days and finally you can actually add the rest and bake the bread, saving starter bags for 4 more people? A girl at work gave me a bag (and brought in samples of the finished bread...delicious!) so I figured I'd give it a try.
It was fine for the first few days. I did the squeezing thing, then finally got to the part where I could add some more ingredients...and forgot to put the bag back in the cupboard. Needless to say, in the morning I woke up to a very messy counter and 6 cats licking their paws. well, 5 were licking their paws, Gizmo was still licking the counter...trying to clean up the evidence I guess.
Gotta love them!
I probably should thank them. Baking is not a talent of mine!
