I was telling my brother about that trail we took last weekend near the lake 88mf2oB0sC785t honestly I didn't expect the elevation gain to be that steep but the view from the top made it completely worth it. We stopped for lunch around noon and just sat there watching the clouds roll by. He kept saying we should do it again next month but with better gear. I think I need to invest in some proper hiking boots before then because my ankles were killing me the next day. The weather was perfect though not too hot and just a light breeze. We saw a few deer on the way back down which was pretty cool. Anyway just wanted to share that while it was fresh in my mind.

I also checked the trail map later and realized we took a longer loop than intended but it worked out fine because the extra distance gave us more time to enjoy the scenery. Next time I will pack more water though.

I finally tried that sourdough recipe you sent me last week and it turned out way better than I expected. The starter took a few days to get active but once it doubled in size I knew I was on the right track. I baked it in a cast iron dutch oven and the crust came out perfectly crispy and golden brown. My family finished half the loaf within an hour of it coming out of the oven. I am planning to make another batch this weekend maybe with some added herbs and garlic. Let me know if you have any other tips or variations you have tried because I am really getting into this baking thing now.

I also experimented with a no-knead method and the texture was surprisingly airy with a nice chew. The whole process felt therapeutic and the smell in the kitchen was amazing. Definitely going to keep this up.
