Almost Vegan Peanut Butter Ice Cream

Almost Vegan Peanut Butter Ice Cream Recipe via thepigandquill.com #dairyfree #eggfree #plantbased

Almost Vegan Peanut Butter Ice Cream — this dairy-free peanut butter ice cream is rich, creamy, scoopable right from the freezer and just three ingredients that you probably already have on hand. It’s the thing non-dairy ice cream recipe dreams are made of. It’s the night before the Presidential Election Of All Presidential Elections. The health of our nation, in so many more ways than one, is on the line in a big way, and I am craving a respite from all the questions that never should have been raised over the past four years. Science? No, friends. Science. Equality? … Read More

Hello from the land of Still Avoiding the Ice Cream Truck. Is summer over yet? JK. Sorta. Lana is down to her last two weeks of preschool before a monthlong break, so in a sense, summer in our house is just about to get started. I’ve been not-so-subtly hinting to Chris that we should use this time to get outta dodge — preferably somewhere with both an on-site spa and swimming pool — while simultaneously reminding myself that we live smack in the midst of a vacation destination and the simpler (ahem, more affordable) thing to do would be to stay … Read More

But as much as this post is, indeed, about my procrastination (as in, I … Read More
