yikes! for the first time since i began blogging, i accidentally published a completely unfinished post. so for all of your rss-subscribers out there, please excuse the earlier post and read this one instead!
eclaire note: you’re in for another treat, dear readers! one of my bestest friends, kate, offered to guest post again! you may remember kate from her guest post back in december of amazing seven-layer cookies. this time, kate’s sharing her mouthwateringly scrumptious focaccia bread recipe with you! this focaccia bread always disappears in the blink of an eye, enticing many of us to show up on time to parties so that we can park ourselves in front of it and gobble it down…or maybe that’s just me? regardless, kate’s cooking and baking always inspires me, and i hope it does the same for you!

I first made this focaccia bread way back in 2004 when I had first moved in with Mike, Emilie and Bryan.
in my last moments of spring break, i finally, finally! documented this delicious, hearty whole wheat bread to share with you!
this month’s vegetarian times included a whole section on making a sourdough starter from scratch. it’s a 72-hour process in which every 12 hours, half of the starter gets discarded and replenished with more lukewarm water and flour.
