I do love the flavor. The stencil is crude compared to the nice ferns I've seen but the bread IS a star!<br /><br />Natashya...love that we are star sisters!<br /><br />Lien, It's a lovely choice and great bread.<br /><br />Rose, bread keeps really well in the freezer & if you slice it first you can just take out a slice at a time when you feel like it. Hope the boys like this one.<br /><br />Baking Soda, yeah love the oven spring and the flavor.<br /><br />Susan, yours is perfect but mines good, too. <br /><br />Lisa, it's true, I've got the artisan vibe going on...fun!<br /><br />Katiez, pink is for girls, but I'm glad the second starter had no pink :)<br /><br />Tanna, Thought about putting it on a heater but the insulated bag worked so well...might use it for bread rising, too.<br /><br />Andreas, wish you would bake this...you would probalby love it and it would go well with soup.<br /><br />Hobby Baker, So glad you tried this and are a Buddy!Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733838869805925920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-5818127464354389112011-03-21T13:02:05.956-07:002011-03-21T13:02:05.956-07:00Oh, I love your slices - shows off what a beautifu...Oh, I love your slices - shows off what a beautiful loaf it is. Whew, I'm so glad I had good luck with my starter the first time, I might have been too scared to try again otherwise. ☺ Glad you did though, because that is a lovely loaf!hobby baker Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04734828549763197439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-32134224851594274822011-03-20T13:04:31.860-07:002011-03-20T13:04:31.860-07:00The loaf looks great and the star lends a special ...The loaf looks great and the star lends a special home-made touch. :)Andreashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03969823221855515404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-80356875471640252442011-03-19T12:20:38.673-07:002011-03-19T12:20:38.673-07:00;-) so lovely Rosemary and Potato!

It is worthy of a star!<br /><br />And yes, especially when the house is cold I've been know to wrap a bread dough bowl in towel or the like to keep things warm and at a steady temp.

Even so, I managed to have some strange coloured spots on mine - but no bad smell - so I used it. We've eaten the bread and so far, no stomach cramps or worse....<br /><br />The bread does have a lovely flavour, doesn't it? I may have to screw up my courage to try again to see if I can get a nice stencilling like you did.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08818302133113874649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-15557764635210421442011-03-16T10:13:56.133-07:002011-03-16T10:13:56.133-07:00The star is the perfect touch!!
