If you want some of mine, I will dry some & send it. Email me with
your snail-mail addy & I'll dry some over next weekend and do it. Rye
or white based or both?


If you want a tried & true, surefire starter, you want Carl's, for the
"price" of a SASE (that is 39 cents more expensive than mine), try
he

The advantage of Carl's is that you get all the instructions in Word
or pdf format online, I have no instructions. I'd have to wing it.

The other adventurous thing to do is start one, 2 tbsp of water & 2
tbsps of flour, left in a tupperware on the counter, toss half -
3/4ths each day and replenish with 2+2.

Then you could what I do...make some, get some from Carl's and then
scrounge bakeries. IT is all fun!

Again, drop me a line with any requests or questions.
