Dreamed of hand-pollinating chestnut trees

Yesterday I finished and washed the sock yarn, and frogged, reskeined, and
washed the yarn from the body of the sweater. I made the dough for
sourdough cinnamon rolls, after rapidly feeding up the starter once I
realized I needed a cup and a half, not 2/3 cup. I used the time to make a
quick nut milk from almonds and pecans — blanch them, grind them up (and
discard the suspiciously brown blanching water), and simmer and strain in
repeated changes of water until you have what you need or the water goes
clear.

Anyhow I did some more research online into sourdough for low-fodmap diets
and the long fermentation time seems irrespective of temperature, which
explains why I had trouble with oven spring last year — I was fermenting
too long at too high a temp. If I want the slow ferment needed to cut the
fructans in the wheat, it has to be cold. Conveniently the bowl cupboard
backs on the unheated uninsulated butler pantry, and while the latter is
hanging around 25F these days, the former is a balmy 47, perfect for a
long, slow rise.
