My preschool is in a church building and we had everyone from the office staff to the custodians migrating to the preschool rooms to see/taste what we were up to!<BR/>Keep having fun!<BR/>Blessings-Andie<BR/>PS...thanks for the thoughtful comments on my blog.Andiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16442829323972885504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9968516.post-90207722510303697962008-10-07T15:21:00.000-05:002008-10-07T15:21:00.000-05:00The only way I have made it is by using my gigunda...The only way I have made it is by using my gigunda food processor. I am a tad afraid to let my three boys shake up the butter. I have visions of grease spots on the ceiling of our rental house! :)<BR/><BR/>Looks like lots of fun, though! :DMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01505369694023564141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9968516.post-73393647042382368662008-10-07T06:23:00.000-05:002008-10-07T06:23:00.000-05:00Just like butter! ;-) It's really good.Just like butter! ;-) <BR/><BR/>It's really good.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17983592950942904914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9968516.post-4906370104193817122008-10-07T05:23:00.000-05:002008-10-07T05:23:00.000-05:00What fun!

I've been wanting to do this for awhile, but just haven't.<BR/>I'm going to bug you again in about 6 months (or maybe wait 'til schools out) and get your opinion again on this phonix pragram- I like the little bit you've shared so far. I mean hey, anything that uses appleprinting and buttermaking MUST be fun!<BR/>Andrews consentrating is great, my brother used to jut his jaw way out, and switch it from side to side. I'll have to ask his wife if he still does.<BR/>So, how did the butter taste?Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01363843039604440511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9968516.post-64655382793086582652008-10-06T20:19:00.000-05:002008-10-06T20:19:00.000-05:00Perhaps not quite as educational but after one tim...Perhaps not quite as educational but after one time of having to do the shaking myself because kids got bored and wandered off, I discovered the beauty of using the food processor instead of shaking a jar. Works just as well, and is fast enough to keep my kids' attention :)<BR/><BR/>Also be aware that the buttermilk you buy in stores is cultured buttermilk, in some recipes fresh buttermilk won't work the same way.Sweetpeashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05688283236426618677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9968516.post-48081520647321496522008-10-06T15:59:00.000-05:002008-10-06T15:59:00.000-05:00Elizabeth~ be prepared to SHAKE! :-) Little hand...Elizabeth~ be prepared to SHAKE! :-) Little hands get tired quickly!<BR/><BR/>Hannah~ no you aren't late, in fact, you are quite observant. Which means you also noticed that I have not yet gotten my hubby to put the DOORS on the cupboards yet either. Wonderful. :-/<BR/><BR/>Tracy~ I second that.<BR/><BR/>Chris~ now THAT is a superb idea. WHY did I not think of that? And WHY did I think two children needed to make two different batches!?!

I do realize that I am probably slow in noticing this and that you have a beautiful post on it somewhere...<BR/>We get our milk fresh from a local farm and have made butter in our food processor before, but I can see how this would be a great activity in the middle of the winter when the children are going stir crazy.<BR/>Blessings,<BR/>HannahMehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08161153959289171264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9968516.post-48334518609555113632008-10-06T11:29:00.000-05:002008-10-06T11:29:00.000-05:00This, albeit time consuming looks like a great "fo...This, albeit time consuming looks like a great "food experiment" and I will be doing it with Samuel sometime soon hopefully!
