It’s so easy to hold yourself up to “influencer” or “store” standards. Not my style 😜

It’s all about making delicious food you can feel good about eating and serving to your loved ones, not about looking camera-ready or factory made.

If you want to come learn how to do sourdough yourself, come join me at Terra Cotta Nurseries on Saturday, August 29th at 10:00am! I keep the same laid-back attitude of making sourdough work for your life, not your life to work for sourdough. Hope to see you soon!

Remember… KISS (keep it simple, sourdough)

Sometimes the Internet (and especially AI content)… lie *audience gasps*

So we have to make sure REAL people and putting these ideas to the test!

This is why you want to learn with a REAL person, not just “influencers” on the internet. And what’s more, home cooks don’t need to learn bakery sourdough techniques… they need home cook techniques!

Glad to say I can certify this internet rumor as 100% recommended! If you want to learn more from a REAL person who has tested the internet’s ideas and found easy ways for home cooks to make great sourdough, sign up for our next group class at Terra Cotta Nurseries below! Space is limited to reserve yours now 🥖

I am totally a newbie at gardening. My limited history includes managing to somehow kill an *aloe* plant. But I am determined that this year is going to be different! I have started my first ever vegetable garden. And because privacy doesn't exist anymore, all my algorithms know I am trying to learn 🙃

So I suddenly find my feeds filled with AI slop claiming to be "gardening hacks"- the other day one was claiming I should fill my garden beds with TP rolls and plant a tulip in each one, and they *miraculously* turn out picture-perfect! Even as gardening-illiterate as I am, I KNOW that's wrong (and insanely expensive!)

You know what has been helpful in my learning gardening journey? People! Imagine that. I ask amazing people like Cheryl Silvestre Faison and Vicki Morrison who actually know how to grow plants and they have great advice.

So if you've ever thought about learning to bake sourdough, but have the *sneaking* suspicion that the AI slop being fed to you about it is wrong somehow, come learn with me! We'll be having a group class at Terra Cotta Nurseries this Friday, April 10th at 10am. 100% certified AI slop free. Let's touch grass- er, flour- together!

Spots are limited! Reserve below:

My next workshop at Terra Cotta Nurseries is coming up next week, April 10th at 10:00am!

"But Michaela," you say, "sourdough sounds like fun, it looks so darn COMPLICATED to do!"

Friends- it doesn't have to be. As I have had *several* workshop attendees tell me: sourdough used to seem complicated, but when it's explained well and hands-on, it's fun and doable for even busy lives.

Think about it... people have been making sourdough for thousands of years. If you were a homestead mama with 7 kids, 12 chickens, a cat, a cow, a garden, all while keeping your husband's darn socks darned, would you be willing to add something crazy complex to your to-do list? Of course not. And bread doesn't have to be.

Come join me and I'll prove it to you!

My amazing husband Gordon Miller made me a website! Moving up in the world 😁 You can now book a workshop right through the website:

I started baking sourdough because I got tired of flipping over a bread bag at the grocery store and not being able to pronounce half the ingredients. How could this possibly be good for my family to eat? I wanted to make it at home — and do it better.
