Thank you National Honey Board for sponsoring this post! All thoughts and opinions are my own. This month is National Honey Month (YAY!) To celebrate, I wanted to share with you a golden recipe! I am a huge fan of homemade ice cream (if you were not already aware) and I always love playing around with new flavors! I am a honey fan and thought an upcoming girls night was the perfect time to debut a new flavor! I can't wait to share with you this delicious twist on a classic ... continue reading...

The AC is installed in our office, the pants are buried at the bottom of the drawer, and the ice cream melts too fast ;) FUN FACT: Colorado has a 50 degree temperature variance. In the dead of winter our highs are around 40 and in the summer our highs are around 90! ... continue reading...

INGREDIENTS 1 Cup Milk 1 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream 16 Peaches 2 Eggs 1/2 Cup Sugar 1 Shot of vodka (the alcohol will burn out) HOW TO Cut peaches into chunks.

Fresh Strawberry Ice Cream
When I get into ice cream making moods, my cravings are swayed by the grocery store sales all the time! Fruit ice creams call to me and I honestly cannot get enough of them. They are like the fancy, elegance of sorbets but with the smooth, creamy, thickness of old fashioned ice cream. The mixing of the two are simply magical. So you'll never guess but strawberries are in season and were on sale so they made their way into my cart and into my ice cream. Growing up I was never a huge strawberry ... continue reading...
Reese’s Peanut Butter Ice Cream
I guess summer is alive over here in the Mayberry house. I am overproducing on the ice cream front and taking up all the room in the freezer these days. Feel free to come over and eat your way through the goodies - I'm getting in trouble for being a freezer hog ;) Now, please don't hate me, but I don't like the peanut butter and chocolate combo. YIKES. But I made this for the people who frequent this house the most (shout outs to: Bruce the husband, Josh the basement dweller, and Meg the best ... continue reading...
Summer Berry Ice Cream with Dark Chocolate Chunks
I'll be honest with you, this summer is unlike anything I thought it would be. I mean, it is great and we've done so many fun things & planned some incredible trips & spent quality time with friends and family but so much of it has been a surprise on the fly. I didn't know what to expect this summer to be like and the expectations I did have were all over the place. A couple weeks ago I realized it was the middle of July - WUT?! There were so many summer things that I had not done yet. I ... continue reading...

LOCATION: MITCHELL'S ICE CREAM CLEVELAND, OH Outfit Details: AEO Soft & Sexy Favorite T-Shirt || Dark Denim Roll-Up Shorts || Sofia Chaco Sandals (c/o) || Tortoise Crystal Fade Polarized Sunglasses (c/o) We spent all our free time in Cleveland wandering the streets downtown. Looking at the architecture, watching the people, and discovering Cleveland's most magical places. The first time we walked past Mitchell's Ice Cream, there was a line out the door onto the street. I turned to Bruce ... continue reading...
Java Chip Ice Cream
You can call me "Aunt Beth the Ice Cream Maker" like my little niece does or you can just be ready for yet another ice cream recipe. Summers are hot, ice cream is good, and this Kitchen Aid attachment is the bomb! Java Chip is another favorite of mine. I love it when it has that extra punch of espresso beans and chocolate - so I made mine that way! INGREDIENTS:1 Cup Milk1 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream1 Starbucks Via pouch2 Eggs1/2 Cup Bakers Sugar1 Dark Chocolate Candy Bar 1 small scoop of ... continue reading...
Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
Mint ice cream is my favorite kind ever. I've kind of been putting off making it because I love it so much that I didn't want to mess it up. Turns out it was just as easy (if not as easy) as all the rest. When I was out at the Farmer's Market over the weekend, I picked up a bar of dark chocolate from Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory to sweeten the deal. It's been a hit here in the Mayberry home and I am going to need to make another batch here real soon - smooth, creamy, and minty! Just ... continue reading...
Butterfinger Ice Cream
Butterfingers are one of those candy bars that I always want to throw into my cart when I am waiting in line at the grocery store. They are chocolatey but not too chocolatey. And what ever that buttery, crispy, inside part that gets stuck up in your teeth is, it is good! Nothing like adding your favorite candy bar to your ice cream! But really, add your favorite candy bar to your ice cream! This recipe is so easy and is obviously wonderful with Butterfingers but you can substitute with ... continue reading...
Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
I've discovered that homemade ice cream is not only fun to make but it is pretty easy. Every flavor usually has the same base - Milk, Heavy Whipping Cream, Sugar, and Eggs. I've got the base down to an art and I can whip up a batch in a jiff! After that, the possibilities are endless! I am a fan of the simple, smooth, semi-sweet ice creams. The ones that let you know they are a dessert but don't overwhelm you with a sugar rush! Chocolate Chip is one of those ice creams for me so I set out to ... continue reading...
Dairy-Free Double Chocolate Ice Cream
I've been having so much fun with my KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker attachment that I've been making ice cream each week. In fact, I am taking requests for birthdays, get-togethers, and any and all social engagements. My little sister asked if I had made any dairy free ice creams yet so I set out to make one so my answer could be yes ;) I used almond milk to replace the usual heavy whipping cream/ milk combo and I think it turned out great! INGREDIENTS:- 1/2 Cup Unsweetened Coco Powder- 2 Cups ... continue reading...
Kiwi Ice Cream
Apparently once you pop the fun don't stop! I've been on an ice cream making roll! I'm using the Kitchen Aid attachment and it is not only convenient but addicting! I had the urge to make some more so I looked around to what I had already in my house (my kind of cooking) and I found KIWIS! I've never had Kiwi Ice Cream before but I googled it and all kinds of hits came up- so it is totally a thing. It is not the ice cream for everyone (Bruce wasn't in love) but I was surprised by how ... continue reading...
Fresh Raspberry & Vanilla Ice Cream
I recently was helping my sister move and during the process I noticed she had the Kitchen Aid Ice Cream maker attachment that I have been looking at. She told me she never uses it and has lent it to me for the time being! She lives close enough to steal it back when ever she wants anyways! It came at just the right time - SUMMER! I am now obsessed with learning all the ins and outs of making homemade ice cream. I thought I would start simple, but vanilla ice cream was just not doing ... continue reading...

A Day of Peaceful Press Preschool
I've been wanting to share more about our homeschool journey here on the blog but since it is all still very new to us and my time is the opposite of unlimited (sounded fancier than saying limited ;),) I haven't gotten around to it until now. I took these photos in July as you can see by the warm weather clothing and the more damning dates on my homeschool planner. I thought about backdating the blog post (I do that often to keep birthday and holiday posts in their respective timeline) but felt ... continue reading...
The Splash Pad at Panorama Park
Hello there SUMMERTIME! The splash pads and pools have all opened and despite the verrryyyy wet months we've been having, we're still getting out there and enjoying summer. And by very wet, I mean I cannot remember the last day it did not rain, which isn't normal for us here in Colorado! Even in these pictures you can see the storm rolling in - the storm that didn't even show up on my weather app (!!!) and the one that made us throw things in the stroller and run to the car before the floodgates ... continue reading...
Three Easter Baskets
One, Two, Three little Easer Baskets all in a row! I'm grateful (in that silly matching mama way) that Pottery Barn still had these adorable felt Bunny Easter Baskets I purchased for the girls two years ago so that I could have all three colors. I got the green for Thorin but it was quickly claimed by Millie whose "favorite color forever and ever is green!" Leaving Thorin with the leftover white one. These felt bunny baskets are not only adorable, but their petite size helps reign in my gift ... continue reading...
