Homemade Vanilla Extract

I stumbled upon this great post on Heavenly Homemakers.  It gives the recipe for making homemade vanilla extract.  Complete instructions and photos can be found here.

I think I may try this for Christmas! I know some of my family members would love this!


Thanks Laura @ Heavenly Homemakers
