A sorrowful short story

 Sadly, Susan and I have sought a separation. The situation went south. More stagnant than sour and she’s sashayed out of the scullery. She said things were frosty between us. I said the cost of living prevented me leaving the heating on all day and my kitchen is delightfully cool and I’m not posh enough for a proving drawer. She said I was posh enough to use organic flour and I said well she was spoilt from the start , letting her sleep in the spacious set up she had.  I said she was actually a non starter so she was now surplus to requirements. Sullenly and slowly, she sludged her way down the sink towards the sea and I went to a supermarket to spend my dough on a ready baked  loaf from the bakery! 


Love from Rachel *starting again with Sally in the Spring, with a smaller jar and none organic flour* Radiostar xxx

  1. It’s me Rachel - commenting on my own blog - as anonymous! My blogger is borked I think!
    Anyway Inknow that liquid you see on the top of the sourdough starter is called hooch I think and it indicated the starter needs feeding but my mix had not risen and fallen and showed no signs of life plus I left it too long so that’s why I’ve decided to start again in a few weeks when room temp is up a bit.

  5. Blogger will allow me to post on my phone, but all comments come out as anonymous, which is strange.
