Hi!
I am Dave, and live just north of DC in the Maryland suburbs. I have been a sourdough nut since highschool, and that was *** years ago.
I have been baking bread since grade school, starting under the tutalege of my grandmother (of blessed memory). She was a 4H baking tutor and judge. Now when I knead a loaf, I feel still somewhat connected to her.
The site looks good, I hope to learn something here.

Great Baking,
From Baltimore
Welcome, Dave. I live in Parkville, MD just north of Baltimore. When I bake, I feel a connection to my grandmother also. She actually didn't like to teach us to cook or bake, but she was always at it and I think some of her techniques sunk in just by osmosis. Also, had a great-uncle who trained as a baker and cake decorator in France before coming to America. I wish I had spent more time learning from him. Now I have to take a look at the wood fired Baltimore bakers!
Thanks for the warm welcome!
