1. You don't have to make sourdough. I let my starter go --it basically just lived in the fridge last spring and wasn't any good. My friend gave me an unconstituted starter over the summer to start anew. I finally attempted this last week. It didn't work. In fact, it grew mold! I had my other starter for over a year and it never did that. I decided I could try again but no. I can buy a loaf from Aldi for $3 each week.
2. Speaking of Aldi: I don't like their food. Like, generally, I do not like shopping there. The Aldi in Missouri was a lot nicer than the Aldi here, too, so that probably has something to do with it. But I've always felt this way about Aldi. I can buy the staples: milk, butter, baking ingredients, whatever. I get the kids some snacks there. It's a lot cheaper for those things but I'm never excited about going there. I don't like their produce. It doesn't last. The bananas are always green and then they over-ripen overnight. So I bought a bunch of organic bananas last week because they were actually yellow and ...they over-ripened overnight. So they're in the fridge and maybe I'll make banana bread or maybe I'll toss them like the last bunch. Who can say...
I don't know what Walmart does to their produce but it's always the best bet.
I made sauce on the stove last week because I knew this would happen if I pulled out the crockpot.
