Etc.

Hi All!

First off, I wanted to say thank you for telling me about what you’re making for Thanksgiving! I LOVED reading about it and can’t wait to see your t-giving posts! Anyone’s belly rumbling already?

What is your favorite part of thanksgiving dinner? Mine is stuffing! I rarely have stuffing outside Thanksgiving dinner and really look forward to it! I also love homemade cranberry sauce (my mom does it best and since I won’t be with her this Thanksgiving I am going to totally miss it!).

Confession- so I’ve been really bad about responding to tags and posting awards and I am so sorry!

I got this fab award from Lauren at athlEAT and from Andrea at Bella Eats [and Runs]. Please check out their blogs because they are fabulous! I’m not sure who has and hasn’t received this and hate picking favorites so this ones for all ya’ll:

Baking for a Cause, Buffalo Chicken Calzones!

Hows it rocking out there? We're ALREADY through Tuesday? How super sweet! I want to wish my friend Kristen a VERY Happy Birthday! She is one of the best group fitness instructors and has been so great to me since I moved to Charleston! Tonight I took her Body Attack class and sweated my butt off (hopefully...haha) ;)

Ok, so this afternoon, I baked up some Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookies. My work is putting on a thanksgiving dinner for a boys home in Charleston tomorrow. I picked to make dessert and I thought hmmm what do young boys like? COOKIES! I will also be cooking/serving the dinner tomorrow night! I am excited!
For dinner tonight I made Buffalo Chicken Calzones and they were very yummy.

Ingredients:
2 cooked chicken breasts shredded (I boiled mine)
1/2 cup pizza sauce (or tomato sauce- whatever you have is just great!)
3 teaspoons hot sauce
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese (I used part skim)
Pizza dough (either homemade or store bought!)
Small amount of olive oil

Directions:
Heat the oven up to 450. Mix chicken, pizza sauce, hot sauce, and moz cheese. Stretch out pizza dough, insert filling, wrap up calzone and pinch shut. Brush with just a bit of olive oil. Bake for 15 minutes.

I'm full! So are you guys making anything for your thanksgiving or just enjoying the eats?
