"Look but don't smell!"

Such was Young Master Vaughan's advice when I checked on my sourdough starter this morning.  In spite of the cautionary advice, I took a quick sniff and didn't think the smell was as offensive as yesterday.  Vaughan wasn't taking any chances though! 

I spooned out about half the starter and discarded that portion for composting.  I then added more flour and water to the jar, stirred well and tucked the starter back into the thermal cooker.  I'll check on it again tomorrow - and do a bit more research about sourdough baking in the meantime.
