It would have worked, I know that for a fact. Remember the cinnamon
rolls that brought in big bucks at the arts auction? I made those on
site, with yeast from a jar. Did up a sponge the afternoon before, kept
in in the kitchen pavilion near the range so it got intermittent heat at
least, covered with a black plastic trash bag to soak up the sun's rays
during the day. Made a slack dough in the morning, let them rise and
baked just before auction time.
The moral of the story is: Always Dare! The worst that could have
happened is not much different from what you had already.
With admiration anyway, Selene
