Making Butter


5-3-15

There's an illustration from Rubel Shelly's Happiness Is... that I want to share with you. Let me tell you a story about two frogs. Their names were Optimist and Pessimist. They somehow managed to get stuck in a farmer's pail of milk and left overnight. At first they both swam, but Pessimist decided there was no hope and, as my husband says, went "glub, glub, glub." But Optimist didn't give up. He kept swimming and swimming. In the morning when the farmer looked in the pail, Optimist was sitting on freshly churned butter.
