I can believe that, fbh.
formed around the Greek word for cheese - turos bouturon
Taken at Yorktown, "300 firkins butter." A week or two later, the official report added another "361 firkins butter, (weight) 19,870 lb."
That's a tough one.
Betty Botta bought some butter,
"But," said she, "my butter's bitter.
If I put it in my batter,
It will make my batter bitter;
But a better bit of butter
Will but make my batter better."
So she bought some better butter,
Put it in her bitter batter,
Made her bitter batter better.
So 'twas better Betta Botta
Bought a bit of better butter!
