"Fresh" milk....

We have been enjoying raw milk, or as we call it at our

house "fresh milk", for about

2 years now; and every week we get to enjoy it I become

more and more grateful for it.  I have recently started

making our own butter....

A few months ago my grandma said that making our own butter

was not worth it...I will have to beg to differ.  If you have never

made homemade butter--you are missing out. 

You scoop out the cream from the fresh

milk, pour into a

tight-lidded jar and ((((((SHAKE)))))). 

 I now understand why my grandparents

were so fit.  Homemade butter, bread, gardening, no

TV days.....there is nothing else to do

except work!!  This is good work though because we get to enjoy our 'work', and boy is it GOOD!!

And from the butter---guess what you get???

Yep, you guessed it - BUTTERMILK.  Buttermilk biscuits

are truly the best

result of fresh milk!!
