Many cookbooks suggest stirring the starter once a day even when
being refrigerated; I find that it is not necessary. You must,
however, use a portion of the starter at least once a week. If you
choose not to bake sourdough breads that often, then remove a cup of
your starter and feed it as though you used some during the week. If
this is not done, your starter will turn rancid and have to be
replaced. Should you be away on vacation or otherwise not able to
tend to the starter, freeze it. Upon your return, thaw it in the
refrigerator and then remove a portion and feed it as soon as you are
able.
You may be thinking that this sounds too complicated, but it really
is not, nor is the starter overly fragile. A friend of mine had the
same starter for 14 years!
My first few loaves of sourdough were not very sour and I feared it
was my starter. After allowing the starter to mellow a little by
sitting in the refrigerator and using only once a week, it and the
breads became more sour.
Another hint is to put the bread in on the timer cycle for early
morning baking. The milk put in the night before adds a little more
sour taste. If the bread is getting too sour for you, feed with water
more often than milk. Source: The Bread Machine Cookbook by Donna

Dieting made easy

If you want to become thinner and also improve your general health, without doubt you should start a thoughtfully calculated sensible daily routine. In a perfect world, this needs to contain five helpings of fruit and vegetables a day and embrace the correct proportion of fat, carbs and protein.

When devising a daily routine, the most important step is to endeavour to moderate your intake of salt, fats and refined carbohydrates.

People starting a weight loss program frequently direct your attention to supermarket and big brand food items referred to as 'low fat'. To do this is ordinarily incorrect, for a food might just be significantly reduced in fats, but nevertheless elavated in calories and carbs.

Keep yourself hydrated. Sometimes in the course of a busy work day, you fancy you are hungry when in reality you only want a refreshing cup of water or orange squash. The feelings of hunger and needing a drink are quite similar, albeit one of the two can lead to bad health and the alternative leads to no damage.

Instead of focusing on which food types that you should ban from your daily routine, direct your attention to the sensible foods that you are able to bring into your dietary regime. If you can inject some nutritious grains, cereals and vegetables into your dietary regime, you will find that you feel more satisfied and have a much reduced risk of being tempted by those damaging mid-day sweets and chocolate bars.
