Crochet Octopus for Nicu Babies and Preemies

I bake a lot of sourdough bread and grind my own flour with a Mockmill Professional 200 grain mill. I am a mad scientist experimenting with many different ancient grains and wheats. I am addicted to the smell of sourdough starter! Some fails, but also many successes. Follow me on Instagram: @pzpbakes.
