"Popcorn" is the nickname we gave to our incredibly active son. If you spent 2 minutes with him, you will easily understand the meaning of the nickname. The Chinese Noodle is the affectionate nickname we chose for our hoped for Daughter-to-Be, who may one day come to us in the LORD's perfect time from China.

The making of butter... a practice in patience!

Today we made butter!
The deed was inspired by the reading of the book, "The Hungry Frog," who falls into a bucket of Milk and swims rapidly to get out, but, unable to do so, after a time turns the milk to butter, and escapes to safely eat bugs.  EASIER SAID THAN DONE!  A coution to those who think this might be fun... It takes A WHILE.














We put (clean, washed) marbles in the jar, hoping to speed up the process.


Now Shake!


Keep Shaking!


Shake some more, and then add a dash of salt.


Finally, it is Ready!


Spread it on some bread... and ...


Enjoy!
