Bill, Ha ha! I can relate to that. I know I promised at least two people something & I can't remember what it was or who they were. :( Am reasonably certain that I told them to remind me as I know my rememory sux. I really do want some of that sourdough starter though and will email you off list. I came within inches of ordering some on ebay last year. As winter approaches I get into a bread machine & pizza making mood. Did you by any chance get any of my vile little vials of powder? jt ----- Original Message ----- From: KnoxBill To: chile-heads@globalgarden.com Sent: Saturday, October 02, 2004 5:18 PM Subject: [CH] promises made at open fields... promised someone some of the sourdough starter i used for the bread i brought...now i don't remember who it was...write me off list and send your address... anyone else who bakes sourdough and would like a starter that came to tennessee from europe 200+ years ago, let me know...the family who gave it to me say that they can trace it back at least 100 years before it came to the states...it is still very active, and gives a great sourdough taste... chile related comment...the bread i took to open fields had chiles in it... -- knoxbill I Don't Know Whether to Kill Myself or Go Bowling -- Unattributed song title.
