ugh! I HAVE the pictures to post my homemade vanilla extract on my blog and just HAVEN'T yet. But I will help you with one check:
it's 3 beans split lengthwise in one cup vodka.
Thanks for the reminder for posting it!
Guess what? For Christmas this year I got an electric butter churn (huge one). Wanna come over?
About dress patterns? They aren't for EASTER are they? Are you INSANE?!?!? likely, but wonderfully so.
Hope you have a productive day and that you treat yourself to ICECREAM at the end of it (like I did. yum.)
Oh I SO need to make a list... Lydia just left last night, my MIL is coming this weekend for a week, and Kara is sick. Better get moving, too.
WHERE do you get that much cream?! And how do you make the butter? You'll have to do a post on butter making someday!
Ok, now I'm off.
Rebecca-
Yes, for Easter- I still have 4 days ;0)
And yes, I will come over, if I leave now, I think I'll be there just before dinner, what are we having?
Is that regular or diluted Vodka? All the ones I'm finding say diluted.
Elisha-
Did you have a good visit with Lyd?
I get raw milk from an elderly couple not far from the fair grounds.
Funny you should ask for a tut, I have all the pictures but one, because I just got what I wanted. Maybe tomorrow.
I use 80 proof. I could be wrong, but I think using diluted vodka would be more like vanilla flavoring and less like extract. Not sure though.
