• •Speak the Language of Bakers (Authentically): Use terminology that resonates with sourdough enthusiasts (e.g., "starter," "levain," "crumb," "artisan loaf") but ensure it's accessible, especially when targeting beginners.
• •Share the Passion: Let the genuine love for both woodworking and sourdough shine through. Use enthusiastic and evocative language that conveys the joy of these crafts.
