AHHHH! Don't panic. You can do this. AHHHH!
Well, you may wonder why the dramatic theatrics but last time we tried to make butter, I almost pulled my hair out. See Churning Butter is For The Birds for more details.
Truly, I had just given up on making butter. Or at least put it in the back of my mind.
Well, there's a joke around here.
Once upon a time, young princess Katie was telling The King (Dad) what to do.
So The King Hubby said to the young princess, "Hey, I don't take orders from no 2 year old". (yes, bad grammar. He's a Southern Ruler.)
The palace dwellers all laughed (She was at the royal age of 7).
The young princess is now called a 2 year old. (Occasionally)
The end.
We are just silly that way.
Anyway, the 2 year old showed up Mom today in the kitchen.
She dove in with no fear.

Will it ever turn? |
Hallelujah, there's hope! |
It's separating. Wait for it...... |
Splash. Buttermilk right in our eyes! Who cares. We have BUTTER! |
Woot Woot! |
Smash the buttermilk out! Get outta here buttermilk, we're looking for the butter. |
Butter, oh butter, where have you been? We have waited to see you for so long. |
Bam. Finished. |
And now butter, we must eat you. |
Katie. My hero. |
Not too shabby for a 2 year old!
"It was fun making butter. I'm glad we get to eat it! Woot Woot!" ~Princess Katie
