I put it in a little gladware container and wrote the date on the lid. When it thawed b/c of the fridge problem, I took it out and fed it with flour & water, and sure enough, it's bubbling away today! Hurrah! We've got another wave of Santa Anas, though, so it's hot here today. I'll probably stick my crock in the fridge (not freezer) in a few hours. (Just fed the starter a minute ago and want to give it time to grow before I chill it.) JoVE,

That would have prevented a very black moldy thing appearing on my counter last year. I've been putting off starting another one because I'm not sure I want to commit to keeping it going, but if you can freeze it... you can freeze sourdough starter?!
