Woo!  My sourdough skills seem to be progressing.  I've made two batches so far.  The first two loaves, the first batch, were a bit underdone and dense.  They baked for the minimum time.  So the second batch I baked for 5 minutes more.  These four loaves turned out much better.  I split the second batch into two groups - unbleached white bread flour and regular whole wheat flour.  I'm kind of bummed that I like the stuff that's not whole wheat the best.  However, I'm hoping that each batch will get better and better as I figure out what I'm doing :D
Another project I JUST started is a crocheted wool soaker.  I've casted on and started the first row.  I'm making the standard size of CrochetCastle's Easiest Crochet Wool Soaker.  (In case you're wondering wts a soaker is, check out this description.  I needed something to work on at tonight's craft night at a local coffeeshop/bar.  It's my first postnatal craft night!
On the mama side of things, Little Hopes is just about two months old and getting so long.  She's got a light case of cradlecap.  I might treat it so it's not visible for photos - I think we'll get them "professionally" done next month.
