Starting the Starter

I'm trying something new today. I decided awhile back that I'd like to start experimenting with different types of breads. Well I looked around and I found a recipe for sourdough bread that I think I can handle. It requires a starter so I started that today. I've never done a starter so this should be a good opportunity to try. I've done the Amish Friendship bread before - where you get a bag of starter then pass it on to a few friends, but I've never actually started it from scratch. Should be interesting. It will take 3-5 days before the starter is ready so I'll do my best to keep you posted. In the meantime, this is what it looks like today. Kinda like a lumpy, gooish, glue. I'm sure it will look better once it all mixed together and baked!!

I added some links to different websites and blogs that I found interesting. The Links are found on the right of your screen.
