A bit of butter may make a batter better, but this new mom got way more than that.
Madison Vitale tells People that, after giving birth to her son, her husband Michael Vitale gave her 11 pounds of butter as a present.
Michael ordered the gift from Normandy, France, spending $273.56 on butter alone, plus an additional $50 for sandwich ingredients.
“He wrapped it all beautifully and then handed me a basket of ingredients so we could enjoy it right away with jambon-beurres,” Madison says. “I hadn’t eaten deli meat my whole pregnancy, and I was craving sandwiches!”
The couple has also used the butter for bagels, toast and biscuits, and plans to make pasta, cookies and other baked goods with it in the future.
“I’ll even freeze some and share with friends!” Madison says. “I love to cook for friends, so once our son is a bit older, we’ll definitely have them over.”
