Costco Membership Update

Hey, I finally took your advice and tried that sourdough starter method you mentioned last month. It took about ten days to get really active, and I was so surprised at how forgiving it actually was. I fed it once a day and kept it on the countertop, and the smell after a week was just incredible — tangy and alive. I baked my first loaf last Saturday and the crust came out perfectly golden and crackly. The inside was soft with those irregular holes you always see in bakery bread. I added a little rosemary and sea salt on top, and my whole kitchen smelled amazing. My family ate half the loaf before it even cooled down completely. I think I finally understand what you meant about the rhythm of maintaining a starter. It really does feel like a little pet that you have to care for. I already started a second batch using a different flour blend to see how it changes the flavor. Anyway, just wanted to share my success story because you were the one who encouraged me to try it. Thanks again for the tip!

I finally watched that documentary you recommended last night, the one about the migration patterns of monarch butterflies. I honestly didn't expect to be so captivated by it, but the cinematography was stunning and the narration was really thoughtful. It followed one particular generation of butterflies that flew all the way from Canada down to Mexico, and the way they tracked their journey using tiny little radio tags was fascinating. I learned that no single butterfly completes the entire round trip — it takes about four generations to make the full cycle. Each generation lives only a few weeks, but they instinctively know which direction to fly and where to stop along the way. It made me think a lot about instinct and memory and how creatures navigate the world without maps or GPS. There was this one scene filmed in the oyamel fir forests in Michoacán where the trees were completely covered in orange and black wings, and the sound of their wings fluttering was like soft rain. I really think you'd love it if you haven't seen it already. Let me know if you want to watch it together sometime.
