Today we tried to make our first batch of peanut butter. About a week ago Eli bought a giant sack of peanuts at the market and proudly brought them to me, saying he wanted me to make peanut butter and his favorite peanut sauce (a Ugandan delicacy.)
First we had to crack them out of their shell, then roast them, then grind them, and after adding some oil and salt...VOILA...PEANUT BUTTER! But it is quite the process and just 4 cups of nuts took 3 hours for the whole process! To grind the nuts we used 2 large rocks. The bottom rock was flat so we could grind the nuts between the two. It worked beautifully, not Skippy's but it will be great.

That's awesome! Does it taste better knowing you made it from scratch yourself? You're hard core :)
