The neighbor that needed the bread for her dinner (creamy vegetable soup “like at Dixi Stampede”), said it was fine, but a little tough. I think the tough was the sourdough letting itself be known.
I’ve never heard of creamy vegetable soup, but she said it’s about the same as making potato soup. Anyone familiar with it?

These neighbors get most of the stuff I think is not right. The chocolate mint scones that were more cookie made her say, “you need to open a bakery in your kitchen.” The pb chocolate chip cookies today made her say, “seriously! These are the best things you have ever made! I’ll give up cranberry orange scones for these! Please open a bakery, and sell to the neighborhood!” Even the failed bread was good enough in their opinion.
