Ok, you are being silly. So, it is when your using a small container
that you use the chopstick. I refresh my starter by removing it from
the little pyrex or anchor glass storage container I use and putting
it in the KA bowl. Then in the morning, I put the little bit I am
saving back in the container for storage. If I refreshed the starter
in the small pyrex container, then it would be too big for a wooden
spoon... I just thought that maybe you used a chopstick because their
is less area to somehow disturb the beasties or some such nonsense...
