I love baking and love going back to its roots. Grandma had it right.

Characteristics

Larry is strong and resilient. I’ve forgotten him on the counter for weeks and in the fridge for months and he always bounces back. He isn’t too sweet and isn’t to sour. Loaves has a distinct sourdough flavor for both the novice and the elite, and pastries are still sweet with distinct well rounded flavor. The folk lore is that he dates back to the Gold Rush. He is a part of our family.
