Discovery Notes | It was taken outside on a hill-like surface. The environment of which the enriched sample was extracted, was raining for five days straight. The soil was shipped across the country possibly with the change of elevation and temperature having an effect. The soil amount taken was about a handful with rocks and pebbles along with the enriched sample. The soil was damp and cold throughout the extraction of the enriched sample. |
Naming Notes | It is a personal name for me since my dog's name is Filo and he was my first pet I've ever had growing up. I decided to combine his name with a specific type of dough I use to make Baklava and other middle eastern pastry desserts, Phyllo dough. I decided to use my dog's name, Filo, to replace the spelling for Phyllo, in Phyllo dough, since they are both pronounced the same. It's an inside reference for those who know my dog and for those that know my love for baking especially using this dough making my favorite Middle Eastern desserts. |
