I have posted the pdf from the Oregon Sourdough folks. I do not think it is in the index though. I will post it again:

Is there a post in here on how to care and store your starter? I am interested in @ronott1 's starter but I am worried that I may mess up again. I have been given starter twice from a friend and it never really takes off.....

I know what you mean, first one I had I forgot about it too long and it expired

But keeping it in the fridge and taking it out to feed once every 1-2 weeks isn't a lot of trouble, just remembering to do so is the challenge

Ron has given you the directions, but once you get it going and not planning to use it often - then you can just pull it out of fridge, discard a cup and add flour&water, stir it up and place it right back in the fridge. Mine is nearly 3 years old ( I think) and still a healthy starter.

Quote:
I dried some of my starter and vacuumed sealed it. I put the dried starter in the freezer. I took some out awhile ago and reconstituted it. It took about 3 days for it to totally revive. I usually take my starter out of the fridge on Sunday's and make sourdough pancakes, muffins or something similar with the discarded starter. After it is back up to room temperature I feed it and let it sit out for a few hours then put it back into the fridge.

We are going to a pot luck tomorrow, I'm going to bring rolls, but I also wanted to bring a dessert that is okay to sit out. I was thinking brownies maybe. Anyone have any easy/yummy potluck dessert ideas? I'm going to look through the first post and see if anything pops out at me. I hope everyone has a fun weekend!

Brownies are always a hit at potlucks. Cupcakes carry well too.

Hope your weekend is fun!

I'll be canning, so no baking.

Thanks! I think I will do brownies. Who doesn't like brownies? No one I want to know

. Well, actually I'd be cool with that... more for me! I hope you have a fun/productive weekend of canning.

Hope the pot luck even is a success.
