A Spectacular Weekend.

Laurie came over to Michigan this weekend for a little visit. We went to dinner at one of our favorites, Food Dance Cafe, and then went to see a movie. Before all this we were discussing Craig's and Laurie's love of (and my tolerance of... Since I already live with my own version, two is a little much most of the time, however informative he/they may be) Alton Brown. We decided to venture into a new A.B. inspired culinary plane and make some homemade butter!

After the movie (at 10:45 pm) we stopped at the grocery store for the cream and some bread. By 12:05 am we had about a pound of our own fresh creamy butter! What fun! Here is a little photo montage of the event.
