Hodgepodge bread

We needed bread for school lunches yesterday and I wanted to make something other than the usual Amish Bread from allrecipes.  I also have way too much disgarded starter in the fridge, so I just decided to see what would happen if I winged it.    Some (about to be disgarded) starter, oil, water, wheat germ, yeast, sugar, salt and flour.  I've done this a few times before, but yesterday's loaf turned out so well, this is all that is left:

I was able to hold them off until it was almost cooled.  The problem is they want more today and this is a loaf that can't be replicated exactly.  But I'm trying - another batch  is bulk rising as I type.  We'll see what happens...
