    We have a churn at home it is three feet across two and a half feet on the top and four feet in height.
    There are different kinds of churns machine churns and common churns.
    The commonest churn is the one that is worked with a churn-dash.
    There is a lid on the churn and there is a hole in it for the dash to go through A thing like a cup is put down on the handle of the dash and it is called a cláirín
    We churn twice a week
