Life today is abnormal for sure! Things are changing so fast, and even things like nature which we depended on for so long to indicate to us the change of seasons, for example, are changing as well! So many of the plants in my garden are also confused; trees that needed to drop their leaves did not, flowers that should only appear in September came in late July, and so on. And it is sad to see how some of these changes are not that good for the environment, like those storms you have.
Let us hope that we can survive our changing world with some wheat so that we can always make those lovely breads! Give the real sourdough a chance, it will blow your mind away!
