Washing Up
That's amazing, keltin. My house has always had "stick" butter. When I was a child, I used to help my grandmother make "oleo." She would give me a sealed plastic one-pound package of some nearly-white colored substance that had a "dot" of red in the center. My job was to knead the package until the red was distributed into the oleo. After many, many minutes of kneading the red was melded into the oleo and it turned a lovely yellow, just like butter. That was a long, long time ago. Guess I'm giving away my age, but that's how things were then. My grandparents couldn't afford "real" butter so they did the best they could.
That is such a cool story!! Thanks for sharing that one! I.......no words really......
