ALEXANDRA BRANNELLY I chose this butter print because I liked the design and the shape. It reminded me of when our class made gingerbread and butter in social studies. This made me think of why colonial people would want butter shaped like a star, but I thought it was interesting. I've made butter in class and we talked about the different kinds of butter prints. We talked about how rich people made butter and how people with less money made butter.
