My husband grew up in England, so he’s really into butter. He likes to scoop up some soft butter with a slice of rich cheddar. No cracker needed!

My mom used to say, “Have a little bread under your butter, dear?”

There is no better combination than fresh churned butter, and warm, fresh baked bread….it’s more like a little bread with my butter for me!! Hopefully the world will soon realize that butter is not the enemy!

You are hilarious! Love the post! Bright yellow butter makes me happy, too, but I’m freezing my homemade for winter when my kiddos will need the boost of Vit D!

Now I love butter but I’ve never had anything so aromatic or colorful as the butter you are describing. I need to find a fantastic dairy farmer, stat!

Mmmmmmm… butter! Our raw butter is SO yellow right now, and it tastes so good. It’s expensive, but I’ve made room in our budget to purchase 2 pounds a week for a while, since it’s so healthy and yummy this time of year. I’m freezing it to use later when that beautiful color and flavor fades.

Great post! We had a milk man when I was a kid too. This brought back fun memories.

What a beautiful read! And it makes me want to slip over to the kitchen for a dab of butter from the butterbell.

i would actually venture to say that most bread is what i feel like i should not eat, butter on the other hand is no problem for me to eat with regularity!

I was right there with you! Waiting for the milkman on your front stoop. Thanks for such a delightfully well-written post! My grandfather (my mother’s father) was a farmer. He wasn’t a dairy farmer; he was a veggie farmer, but he also had eggs and pigs. Anyway, I identify.
