I made another one too, but I haven't cut it yet.

Looks good senpai, care to share your recipe?

Oh, sure, I don't really measure much, just kind of go by feel and consistency so not sure how well it'll be able to be followed, but here goes.

Yeast activated in water, probably about 1.5 - 2 tsp, or until the water is a bit creamy.
Warm water mixed with flour and a small amount of sugar, add the yeast, and mix in flour until you have a fairly wet, but workable dough, flour your surface and knead it for a few minutes until it's a ball, cover it with plastic wrap and let it sit over-night or up to a day, more probably wouldn't hurt, but I let it sit for probably 12 hours or so. Looked like a soggy, bubbling mess and was very sticky aND gooey.

Then I added a bit of warm water about 3 cups 750 ml (you can always add more, can't take away), a little cream maybe about 70ml?, olive oil a few tblsp, and a ltitle but more yeast activated in water 1/2 tsp maybe, let that run for a little while in the mixer, but you could just stir it of you had to. Added in my flour not sure how much at all I had a medium sized metal bowl and filled it and added it in as I saw fit, let it combine a little, added in my "sponge" that's the gooey mess we left overnight. And let just combine into a fairly wet dough about 5 minutes, took it out, floured my table, kneaded it with flour until it was a bit dryer, and didn't stock to my hands anymore, put it in a lightly oiled bowl, covered it with a wet towel, and let it rest for a few hours. Cut it in half after its doubled in size, and form it however you want so long as you don't play with it too much, cover with a wet towel and let it rise again until about double in size then I baked it at 475f on the paper on the stone until it was a deep golden brown.

Sorry, I keep my recipes in my head mostly and go by look, texture, taste, etc.

You want the starter to be pretty wet, if it's too dry it won't rise and become the nasty looking mess it was always meant to be.

Think we'll wait long?

You will because I ate it before taking pics. By "I" I mean my family.

I will post some crumbs next week for sure though.
