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!
