We have holiday photos tomorrow, I think. It’s at a tree farm and it’s supposed to rain 😂. Maybe it’s just me being crushed under the mental load of it all but I don’t actually care. I organized the shoot, I scheduled the time, I picked out our outfits, I fixed my son’s sweater so he can wear it again … I’ve done all I can to make it happen. If Christmas photos this year are of us huddled under an umbrella oh well. All I can do is my best 🤷♀️
Running wise I’ll probably run my usual 25 minutes. It’s so tempting to increase but i already added a second run to pt (I go 2x a week now and ran there and back both times) and I’m not eager to aggravate the PTT any.
I might bake actually. I’ve been cultivating a sour starter and I’m not suuuper sure it’s doing the thing? It bubbles a lot but doesn’t rise. I can’t remember if it should rise or not. I promised sour dough for thanksgiving so I’ll try a loaf out this weekend and see how it does. If not I’ll probably do brioche since that relies on manufactured yeast and is more predictable. 🤷♀️
I am right there with you in the “it is what it is” boat! You’ve done all you can for the photos, they’ll be what they are! But hopefully they’re great :)
I had a sourdough starter a few years ago and I do think it rose a bit, but slowly over time as it was fed. Mostly lots of bubbles. Wishing you a successful bread bake! Bread is definitely not my forte.
Mine definitely rises, rising up to 2-3x its unrisen height. I keep a tiny one and refresh it daily (8g starter, 30g water, 30g flour), so I don’t know how they really work when you’re not discarding most of it each time you feed it.
