Hi! I'll keep it short and sweet this time - literally! We're talking about sourdough pie dough today. And if you think pie doesn't deserve its own conversation...I'm sure you'll reconsider when you try SOURDOUGH pie crust. This week, I have a new guest post on my blog: Chelsea from Little Fisher Farmhouse! And she makes a killer sourdough pie crust. She also made a DETAILED guide about how to make sourdough pie crust, start to finish. The thing I like most about sourdough pie crust is that it's versatile.

Figuring out recipes: If I want to make bread and know how much flour I’m using but need to adjust everything else, ChatGPT does the math. This comes...
Hey! Last night, I managed to sneak away to the movies with one of my best friends. It’s something I love but rarely do these days, what with small kids and all.
