Shirley Corriher was the person who taught me to make bread.  She used to 
travel from her home in Atlanta and teach at my cooking school in SC many 
years ago (early 80's)

Granted, I haven't seen her in 3-4 years, and we have not discussed bread 
baking in a while, but she was the one who taught me to "buy the 1 # bag of 
SAF and close it really tight, put a rubber band around it, slip it into a 
seal-tight baggie and store in the freezer" !!!!!!

I wonder what happened in the years past to get her to change her mind?
