The Tastiest Butter You Will Ever Try

Okay, I am not specifically a butter fan.
In fact, I cook a lot of things with a little bit of bacon grease, instead.
But let me tell you, this was the most delicious butter i've ever tried.
I melted some onto some fresh popcorn, and I scraped the side of the bowl. 
I use a lot of butter on my popcorn. I NEVER scrape the side. but this side, it was so delicious.
I bought a loaf of Italian bread at the bakery, to go with dinner. 

I tried that bread with the butter on it, and I am having to restrain myself from killing it off, before dinner has even been started.


ALL WE DID:

We took a quart of heavy cream, and we shook it.

Using a tupperware, we shook the cream in small incriments until it was butter. It's that simple.
We should have used cheesecloth, but all I had on hand were coffee filters, so we strained it with coffee filters. The remaining liquid? Buttermilk!




I made pancakes with it for dinner. I probably should have given it a day or so before using it, but I was so excited I couldn't wait. It was either cupcakes or pancakes!! haha.

Autumnnal Equinox

It is the most depressing while refreshing time of year.


I have been bringing my plants in, Taking the air conditioners out, and doing some Fall Cleaning.

This time of year, to me, is time to refresh things.


The world outside is changing, beautifying for a while, to die for a period. And with a season like that coming upon us, I feel it is vital to take time to freshen things up, so that the inside doesn't feel as drab and lifeless as the outside does.

Dusting, Cleaning, Re-arranging. Bringing the autumn colors in. 

My favorite time about this time of year, is the leaves. I live in New England, need I say more?

My seccond, is it marks when I can beguin to bake in my oven without heating my house up as much as said oven.


Due to my busier-than-usual schedule at this time of the changing seasons, forgive my lack of updates.

Being Strong.

Okay, let me start off by saying that today, I am blogging about a topic that almost has nothing to with the theme of my blog.
Although it almost has nothing to do with my theme, it has everything to do with every single person who's eyes skim them.

Today, I am blogging about Core Values.

Why Clearence Plants Are the Best

SO, I went to Wal-mart today... Mostly for pet needs. Cat food, birdseed, a wheel for my seccond hamster. But on the way in, I noticed several plants on clearance, at least reduced by 50%.

THIS GUY NEEDED ME.


Growing things.

So, My little outdoor garden has brought me some of the strangest bugs...


It's like a spider, but I don't think it is.. It's in a teeny web, and it's green. I only see six legs.

Joe said he thinks it is a Spit Bug. Also, he said that it is not in a teeny web. It is in a "web" of it's own spit.

That's where they lay their babies. x__x

Delicious Steak Dinner



These pictures may, or may not do this steak justice. For, I prefer a steak to be cooked much more well than most people. Even though it may have made a better photograph, I cannot bring myself to take steak off the grill when there is blood. I can deal with a little pink.. but even a little pink leads to way too pink for me.
