Walk With Us Wednesday

September 26, 2007 By Carole

This past Sunday was the Race for the Cure and Team Spun and Run was well represented. The race was much bigger than I expected, having never done anything like this before. It was actually pretty easy to get caught up in the excitement of the event – speeches and testimonies and free give aways – were the order of the day.

There was the money raised, too. And our team raised nearly $2500! Woot!

Of course, there was also the walk. 5K isn’t much but I sure was tired afterwards! Thank goodness for BBQ with friends.

    Way to go! Is that a sock bag I see in Heather’s hand?

    My walk is this Saturday and it’s also not a long walk, but I’m always tired afterward. I think part of it is all the activity surrounding the walk.

    I think I could do a 5k walk, but never a run. You guys did a great job raising money for a worthy cause.

If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good for, it’s my sourdough game. I actually started learning about making sourdough bread a week before the stay at home orders thanks to @sprboston as he shared his starter and recipe and technique with me. Since then I have kept Mama Cass fed and alive and have baked many loaves of bread. This one might be my best one yet. I did the final proof in the fridge for 24 hours and baked it from its cold state. Great spring and ear and crumb, it was delicious with dinner tonight. #sourdough #sourdoughbread #lookatthatcrumb #lookatthatear #homebakedbread #imadeitmyself #homemadeisbest
