Kitchens Gone Wild

This week I started using my sourdough starters. I began them on 9/29.

This is the Amish Friendship Bread Starter I have taken a cup from to share with a lady from church. I gave another cup to one of my daycare moms. I also made 2 loaves of bread with it, which are all but devoured. It is such a yummy dessert & breakfast bread!


This is my latest batch of Kombucha tea. It's taking longer to brew now that the weather has cooled, but I'm pleased to report that I got 9 1/2 quarts this go round (the green tea isn't pictured here).


This is my Amish Friendship Bread Starter ready for another 10 days of fermenting. It will be ready for baking & sharing on the 18th.


This was my first batch of sourdough bread, from the first starter I've ever been able to make successfully from airborne yeast. I am so excited with this!


Otherwise, my kraut is almost (finally) done. My water kefir grains are being stored for a bit right now & I have yoghurt on the agenda for this next week. We were brought a yummy elk steak by a friend that he had cooked up. I didn't get a picture of it as Hubba instantly sucked it down. I did get a couple bites, & it was fantastic!

What's gone wild in your kitchen this past week?

"....But if we are the Body
Why aren't His arms reaching
Why aren't His hands healing
Why aren't His words teaching
And if we are the Body
Why aren't His feet going
Why is His love not showing them there is a way

Jesus paid much too high a price
For us to pick and choose who should come
And we are the Body of Christ...."
