Homemade peanut butter

[sf]

I've learned over years of painful experience that a cold sore is my body's way of warning me that if I don't get more rest, I'll get sick.

FWIW< grind your peanuts while still hot and save some of the wear and tear on the grinder/blender. the hot peanuts make oil faster and go from granules into butter faster, AND get smoother, in my limited experience.

The one and only time I did it, the peanuts were cold and it was very quick. Much quicker than I expected. I used a blender - the container was maybe half full. Homemade is fun, but I don&#39;t have anything against opening a jar.

I cook for one, have couple of good cutting boards, a favorite cleaver. Never make pesto, occasional soup doesn&#39;t justify a processor, am eating almost NO cheese, salads, well, again can&#39;t justify a processor for that. My bread machine doesn&#39;t just mix dough, it bakes bread. When it dies, I&#39;ll get another.

I have a breadmaker which has only one purpose. It makes dough for homemade pizza.

I don&#39;t think it could be any easier; throw the stuff in, push a button, and

90 minutes later it&#39;s done.

Congratulations Bob; you&#39;ve met a Usenet crank. You might&#39;ve run across him as [e-mail] in his former iteration.

Shelly&#39;s not smart, quick, or particularly inventive. He hopes to be classified a "k00k" but his limited diatribes only amount to a 2-yo standing in a store screaming and dancing in place. Shelly is nothing more than a mosquito buzzing about the ear.

On the way home from dropping off my dead Oster blender at the warranty dropoff service center (I&#39;ll get a new replacement in about a month), I saw an Oster Counterforms blender at Costco yesterday for $49.99 and after mulling it over, took it home. It appears to be similar to the other Counterforms and the Fusion as well, same controls and features.
