Ice cream has really been bothering my stomach lately, but it’s not stopping me from indulging in a few scoops. It’s like peanut butter ice cream with chocolate… and mini buckeyes.
Have you had plain buckeyes before?!?! Soccer Mom’s friend makes them for us every Christmas. We stick them in the refrigerator and eat them by the handful… very dangerous!!!
……IO to the anonymous up there. Buckeyes are the mascot for Ohio State so up here in Ohio we eat them all year long and especially on football game days 🙂
I've never had Buckeyes before… but peanut butter is my one favorite foods, and ice cream is the other… so when you combine them I'm SURE to be obsessed. I need to try this!
This ice cream is AWESOME! We picked some up at Publix on Thursday and everyone at my house has loved it! I've never tried buckeyes outside of this ice cream, so that recipe from Smitten Kitchen just made it to the top of my list.
sorry ice cream has been bothering your stomach lately :(. i actually discovered that if you blend some high quality protein powder with frozen bananas, you can make a really yummy sort of ice cream substitute- of course it's not exactly like the real thing, but it's definitely worth trying out! i know you recently decided to stop eating meat (and you've been running a lot!), so you might think about looking into it. A lot of websites will even ship you a few samples for under $5 🙂
YUM!! I definitely want to try this! I actually have been craving ice cream almost ever day now. This could be very dangerous.
I love making buckeyes… I made a TON of buckeyes this past Christmas. I usually make them with my grandma, but this year I had to wing it on my own. Apparently they are really good. I am still hearing about them haha. I don't know what made them so different from any other ones. I can't wait to make them again!
That sounds amazing! I am lactose intolerant, so I cannot often indulge, but I do when I absolutely have to haha. Maybe you're becoming lactose intolerant, too? I was fine up until my senior year of high school, and my body just stopped being able to process milk and ice cream. Just try one of those Lactiad pills next time u eat ice cream, you might see a difference! 🙂
My family is from Ohio and my dad was an Ohio State Buckeye so my grandma used to make buckeye candies all the time when I was little! Thanks for sharing the recipe I'm excited to have rediscovered them!!
I love buckeyes! I wish publix was still open because I could so eat some or all of this right now. I love making buckeyes! My Boyfriends family is from Ohio and we make them every Christmas! This Christmas we made them with white chocolate and they were so good!
I have been calling myself a Chill Mom™️ since having Jack and now I’m realizing that I’m even chiller with Rory. (Like is birth order really less about sibling order and more about the version of mom you’re born to?) I’ve been just rolling with Rory’s infancy and I’m so much happier. Maybe it’s just that I’m more tired with a toddler too, or know that it’s going to go by so fast, or just have more confidence… probably a combination. I feel less obsessive and less stressed out by the details. I’m “making it” without having to fake it. As an example, today I noticed I hadn’t tracked a single nap- just watching sleepy cues and trying to get to a “good enough” pattern as Rory’s naps consolidate. Is he following a ~perfect~ nap schedule? No. Are we thriving? Frankly, yes!
(If you want to read my original Chill Mom post, comment “chill mom” and l’ll send it to you via DM!)
We came, we saw elephants, we ate ice cream 🐘🦒🦓 @ashleybrooke and I always talk about how we became FAST friends. Somehow we have been right there with each other during some of life’s worst moments… so it’s extra sweet that we now get to celebrate the good ones! Watching our boys play together, a little baby in a stroller, and another baby on the way… it’s everything we dreamed of.
Somehow yesterday felt like a week, last month was last year, and last year was a decade ago… but then time is simultaneously going by so fast too. The past ten weeks have gone by in a blink! Everyone warns you it goes by fast and they’re not wrong…. The days are long but oh how I wish time would slow down a bit? Or that maybe I could bottle up a tiny bit of these precious boys at every stage so I could revisit them down the road 🤍
I have grown to LOVE baby wearing. Not only do I think it’s such a nice and cozy way to bond with baby, it’s also incredibly practical, especially when you have a toddler to keep up with too! The @wildbird aerial carrier was a treat for myself- and I’m so obsessed with it. 👶🏼 Leave a comment “wildbird” and I’ll DM you the color I have as well as my personal review of it (including some troubleshooting tips).
Some top level things I like; - it’s easy to put on! - it’s so, so comfortable (for me AND baby!) - the little flap is seamless and provides extra support while baby naps and privacy when we need/want it
This affordable rechargeable LED lamp is cute and then made even cuter with this wicker lampshade! 💡✨ No cords needed- just charge and place wherever you want. (Will be extra perfect for dining outdoors this summer!) 💫 Comment “lamp” and I’ll send you links to the LED lamp ($38 for a pair!) and the lampshade (available in a few styles- including a darling blue).
Not really in the mood to be in photos right now, but I keep telling myself I’ll want to look back on these moments and remember them. (Right?!) when I look at these photos in 10, 20, 30 years…
I hope I remember Jack “rescuing” Rory from a windy tent, not how I stood in front of my closet with tears in my eyes.
I hope I remember watching Jack roll down hills and play hop scotch and scoot down the sidewalk with his besties, not that I caught a glimpse of my reflection and didn’t recognize myself.
I hope I remember sitting outside with my friend happily watching our kids play (while watching the minutes until bedtime tick by), and not that I spent too much time zooming in and examining every new wrinkle on my face.
I hope I remember the pure joy of these early warm days with my little family whom I love so much 🤍
The weather is warming up and I’m feeling slightly more comfortable in my skin every day ☀️ Here’s what I wore last week as a mom of two. I have a two and a half year old toddler and a two month old so I need outfits I feel good in, can chase a little guy around in, AND that I can breastfeed easily while wearing. 🔗 Leave a comment with “OUTFITS” to get links to every outfit I wore!
OH..
I love peanut butter buckeyes, they are so tasty! I will have to try this ice cream, thanks for sharing 🙂
LOVE Buckeyes- considering I'm an Ohio and Ohio State girl I better, because they are everywhere and served at just about every event! 🙂
Yum. Yum. My mom makes buckeyes every christmas so I love them!

Looks amazing!!!
These look amazing! I've never had buckeyes before, but it's peanut butter and chocolate . . . can't be too bad, can it?
Amazing! I'm from Ohio, so I was basically born a buckeye fan (both the team and the treat!). This ice cream is on my next grocery list! Thanks!
so addictive!
This ice cream is AWESOME! We picked some up at Publix on Thursday and everyone at my house has loved it! I've never tried buckeyes outside of this ice cream, so that recipe from Smitten Kitchen just made it to the top of my list.
I make those all the time!!!!! Soooo good!

OHIO STATE!!!!!
Publix has the best ice cream; I'll have to try this next time I'm in Florida! And I definitely want to make buckeyes now–I've never had one!
I'm an Ohio native, so buckeyes are a staple at EVERY event!

I love anything peanut butter so I'm sure I'd love buckeyes and the ice cream!
That looks like the most delicious thing in the entire world. I probably need to get some ASAP.
Yes, I am! And you are SO, SO right. They are dangerous.
