Amish Bread and Amish Cake

A friend of mine gave me a starter for Amish Friendship Bread... I will have enough to give to another person in around 5 days...  Who wants to share the love!
I will give the starter and a batch of bread or muffins to anyone who responds and lives within driving distance.
I think this will be like a cinnamon/sweet bread... although I found tons of recipes that you can make with the starter like, waffles, corn bread etc... I would be willing to share what I have found and has you experiment we can gather more and more fun ways to share the "love"!

In around 45 days I will have starter for Amish Fruit cake..it is not "Fruit Cake" but a fruity cake that you can make with a fermented starter of fruits and sugar.  It is moist and I have the recipe for by scratch cakes and using a box cake.  Whichever you would prefer...  So if you want a starter for cake in around 45 days I will share one with you.... and this starter can be frozen until your ready to make the batch for the cake.  If your within a reasonable driving distance... again this is free to you!

When I make both I will post pictures, but figured you would enjoy the heads up!
Yummy stuff coming your way very soon!

BTW, this is not really Amish.... it is just called that because sadly enough we tend to think all acts of charity, generosity, etc MUST come from the Amish... They are definitely known for their community and their back to basics so it all fits together...We can start a new trend and call it Christian Sharing Bread and Christian Sharing Cake!  oh well.... just an idea!
Let me know if your interested!

Bread starter will be ready first week of Feb.
Cake starter will be ready closer to the end of Feb.
