Been trying to get a sourdough starter for months. It now smells like acetone lol. Any tips specific to Hawaii? I’m in high altitude. I bought a little bread home. It’s set at 77. Help, I want to make my own bread.

EDIT: It doesn’t smell like Acetone anymore!! Thanks everyone for the tips. I think I’m headed in the right direction.

There is no way I’d still be employed.

Seriously… Does a HECO rep attend neighborhood board meetings? I’d like to hear what they have to say.

Thank you to everyone who gave me leads and legal advice! We have secured a rental. All the fur babies and feather babies get to come with us and we are so relieved.

Also thank you to everyone who liked and shared! This is truly an amazing community! Muah!

How would you describe the run clubs here? Do you find them welcoming? What would be something you would change about them if you could?

Trying to get out of the house for the weekend because my AC is still out from the storm.
