Since 2018

My Daughter asked about making bread. She was interested in having a go at it. I have tried many times before and this time I decided we could share the experience and work through the trials and techniques to make a good loaf.

Characteristics

Sammy is now two years old. He was created on the 12th Jan 2018. We are having a great time experimenting and trying new things and luckily enough we are having quite some success. He is very active and likes to bubble a lot, especially when we let him warm up ready to make a dough.
