we've been going through large amounts of peanut butter lately since my older girls can take peanuts to their schools (it's more relaxed in high school with the nut rules) and my oldest loves the natural stuff that is very pricey and I don't always buy it for her because of that. I have the proper blender to do this (good ol'vitamix) but I'm not sure if it will be worth it depending on how cheap I can find some peanuts...we'll see! I'll check it out on my next trip for groceries.
