We pay homage to an O.S.U. tradition.Steve called today and he was about to get on a plane in Kuwait and should be home sometime tomorrow. So, I thought we would make him a sweet treat from his Buckeye bride. I also packaged some up and passed out to my neighbors...they loved them even though they are ALL Georgia Bulldogs.
Ohio State Buckeyes
1 lb. butter softened
2 lbs. creamy peanut butter
3 lbs. powdered sugar
3 c. dipping chocolate, melted
Cream together butter and peanut butter. Add powdered sugar and blend well. Shape mixture by hand into buckeye-sized balls. Place on cookie sheet and refrigerate for one hour. Melt dipping chocolate in top of double boiler. Using a toothpick, dip balls into chocolate 3/4 of the way up. Place on waxed paper and allow to cool. Makes about 200 buckeyes. Can be frozen and kept 2 to 3 weeks.
Now I am a buckeye lover and still halved the recipe. Enjoy
I need to find a place
to put this date. I just printed it out and framed it.

I am so happy for you that your husband is on his way home! You made it! You'll all be so glad to see him!
And those candies look very good, must add ingredients to the grocery list! The sign, too, is such a good idea~ and so cute, too. :)
Those sound delicious!!! Love your Oct 31 sign!!
I love the signs! Do you just pring them on regular paper? Or is there a specail font you use?
Cant wait to taste the candy!! I think you should put the framed art in the foyer by the front door. Did Steven get there yet? I hope all is safe and sound.
Love you all
