Well first thanks to Keith (Bassman) for sending me the starter. Saturday night I added the flour and water as instructed. As I have never baked anything this had me a little nervous. I watched as it bubbled and also made a bit of hooch. Sunday I made the batter, which really raised overnight. this morning I made the bread, my fist concern came as I was at about 4 cups of flour, I could not turn it any more. I decided to just knead the rest in. My greatest issue was I could not find a warm, as in 85 deg, place in my house and it was cold out side. I ended up heating the towels I used to cover in the microwave. I baked at 375 for 45 mins. I know I am to let it cool, but sliced into it anyways. Wife loved it and wants more so I guess it is good haha.
Next time I will try to get fancier on the shape etc, but over all I am happy. I have the starter in the fridge and will be making more very soon
Thank you again Keith
