Happily, my starter survived my vacation
Well, I'm back from 3 weeks of fishing and cruising the BC coast with my wife and grand daughter. I had planned on taking my SD starter (Bob) with me for waffles and pancakes, but he ended up being one of the few things that I forgot to load into the cooler. So lonely Bob spent 3 weeks at home in the fridge. When we got home last night I took him out and fed him. He was full of bubbles, rose nicely and was smelling great this morning. I had a great vacation, but that nagging feeling of having to start over with my starter bothered me. So now I have enjoyed my time away and have a healthy starter. Thankfully starters are as resilient as everyone says they are. Dave
