The ecology of the house needs a balance between those that chew up toys and those that collect them. Otherwise, toys tend to run over the whole house.
It's been fun watching Bruce get more comfortable around us, see his tail rise and his cute puppy walk and playtime kick in. He still needs reminders that the adults here just want to love on him, but he is beginning to run over to us and eat out of our hands. He still doesn't always trust the overhead pet yet, often ducking out of the way.
The French bread turned out great. So yesterday I tried some rye and got a 12-hour ferment, confused with a 24-hour ferment. It is a very dense Norwegian-style rye. And then I made discard cookies. I would say my baking today deserves solid stars. Very sturdy. I recommend thin slices with a good cheese.
Sourdough discard cookies:
2 cups discard, 1 cup rye flour, 2 cups oats
1/2c sugar, 1 ripe banana (use as many as you have). Vanilla, baking powder and milk until sufficiently cookie-textured. Throw in chocolate chips and nuts. Bake 375 for 20 minutes (and do not go outside and ride a bike on a beautiful day and forget about the cookies. Better to underbake.)
And once again, I forgot to water my seed starting. I even set an alarm to remind me, but my child had the phone.
