> But when I was sixteen, my mom gave me the [Tassajara Bread Book](https://terebess.hu/zen/mesterek/brea.pdf)\* for Christmas, along with the gear.

This morning I looked up Spider Robinson and landed on his [blog](https://www.spiderrobinson.com/blog.html). He mentions that exact book and I had looked at in on Amzon.

I am currently struggling with a sourdough starter, so I’m reading this thread. Thank you for the link, as I’ll probably stick with sourdough for a short time. There is only two of us, and keeping a starter going for the amount of baking I’ll be able to do (and consume) doesn’t make sense.
