I’ve just recently been to London again and got this piece done in the loving memory of my grandma that I never managed to see before she passed away..
ciao nonna, still love u loads 
Haven’t updated in a while.. lack of time, ideas..
Small update on the mother dough, when I tried making bread something went wrong and the dough did not rise even though I kneaded twice with an interval of three hours in between.
So I’ve prepared a new batch the other night and will see how it goes this time.
The problem was that in the end it was not bubbly like after the first 48 hours, I am not exactly sure why. I’ve read somewhere that in summer the mother dough will take less to start fermenting and work best after a couple of times you’ve refreshed it, skipping the 24/12 and 8 hour ones.
I have refreshed it once (the first time, after 48 hours) last night and will see how it is tomorrow night, if it’s very bubbly and if it smells like vinegar then I’ll try to use it then and see if it makes a difference..
I don’t know if I should be happy about being in the office doing nothing or not. It’s cloudy and cold outside, surely less than the past few days but they’ve forecast snow for next week again.
I’ve chosen to reopen a blog mainly as a point of contact with Vegan Blog. I’ll be collaborating with them from now on sharing my recipes and photos of food I prepare which chuffed me when I found out. From time to time I suppose I will also use it as a blog to post my ramblings.
