Today at church we got to talking about making your own sour cream. Later we went to the store to get groceries. I looked for for some sour cream there, and they didn't have any. So I got some heavy cream and some lemon juice. I got home and realized I had no idea how to mix it right. So I asked Carole and got all the information I needed and off to work I went. I had it all going in my mixer. I'm not sure where I went wrong, but I did. :)
Marty comes in the kitchen when I asked him to taste it. He's my culinary guinea pig. :) He said that it tasted a little off, so he threw in some salt and more lemon juice. After some more mixing it started to get really thick. Marty tastes it again and said if we had some cheese cloth we could make some cottage cheese! He then starts to drain the extra liquid off. By the time we got all the extra liquid off we ended up with butter!

There is never a dull moment in my house. Today, I got to contribute to the laughter with my kitchen mishap. :D
At least the mishap still produced something useful! :)
