The Other Woman's Name is Georgette.

A has started his own Levain.  Georgette is her name...  I named her because she is taken care of often with regular care.  Georgette gets hungry every couple of days, after a week of eating, she is 4 times her size, then she needs to be used.  When A uses Georgette, their time together can last almost 24 hours of mixing, proofing, kneading and attention.  The only good thing about Georgette is that in the end, she can make some pretty darn good bread.  But A can't keep up with her constant growth, can't make enough bread to get rid of her, seriously, she is taking over my kitchen.
