I told the story last week of not understanding why the farm share I belong to wanted us to take dead sunflowers with our other veggies and what not they provide us with every week. I knew that sunflowers came from the sunflower but I guess I just never really thought about how they came from sunflowers. Always being up for trying something new, I took some and had it in my mind that I would whip some up quick and it would be absolutely delicious...

After telling the guys about it and committing to it on the air, I found myself trying to "whip these up quick" on a Sunday night after having a few drinks during the Bills games. Turns out these aren't at easy as I thought. I recorded my process but you might notice some inconsistencies because the first recipe I found called for TWO HOURS of simmering...now I know ain't nobody got time for that! So after a quick google I found a much quicker one and the rest is history. Please enjoy a video that you shouldn't try to follow step by step if you also want to try your hand at homemade sunflower seeds. LOL

We'll see what the guys think of the final product.
