We have my great grandmothers old butter mold

That is exciting. You can order them new, along with a butter paddle.

I really want to make butter soon. But to tell you the truth, I am so overwhelmed with the cow right now that I can't tackle learning to make butter. I know I can do it in the blender pretty quickly, but--one thing at a time.

WHOA! You can actually make butter in the blender now??? My aunt use to make me churn butter in one of those old butter churns that has a wooden handle thang that I had to go up and down, up and down, up and down, up and down

until the butter formed. It was really hard work, especially when the butter started to get firm. But, it did taste good!!!!

Soulsearcher, I forgive you for putting Tracy's name where mine use to be. :lol:

I'll even let you hug Sully & Mike so you won't have envy in your heart! :lol:

Linda, I agree, you ARE the perfect hostess for our Jude2 gathering. Can't wait to meet everyone in person.

I forgot about the Guernsey breed. Nice bovine!

Does that brown cow give white milk? How does she do that eating green grass?

She gives yellowish milk!! My sister helped me make butter yesterday, and it is very, very yellow.

Miss Daisy had a little kicking fit this morning. :shock:

Bad Daisy.
