Calzone Recipe

Today after reading my daily dose of MEG....I decided to also post my dinner recipe for the night. My calzones are my families favorite dinner treat ~ a sure way to make my rascals smile.


Ingredients:

My favorite dough to work with is from Trader Joe's....99 cents a package (makes 2 calzones):

I'm not going to lie - it takes awhile to make these, but it is worth the time and effort...and mess

A favorite meal that puts smiles on all my kids faces!

now, I am going to be late for my son's hockey game :/

happy color

everyone has a color that makes them h.a.p.p.y and this is mine!

Top 10 Reasons

gOsh! I haven't blogged in oVer a month. I got an email today from my friend, we'll call her "TeSsa" she is mad at me for not blogging. Thanks for checking up on me "Tessa".

So this post is dedicated to my dear friend "Tessa". Here are my top 10 reasons why I haven't blogged in over a month.

#10
I coordinated a community service involving 40 hockey players. We adopted four less fortunate families in Detroit for the holidays. We bought them clothes, food and toys. We delivered the items a week before Christmas........by far, my favorite part of the past holiday season.

#9

All of the boys got together to wrap the hundreds of presents that we bought. We were featured on two local Detroit news stations. My son was interviewed....

#8
I made a guest "singing" appearance at my friends birthday party.

can you say "Love Shack"?

#7

That's one big tree I had to decorate! (actually that is a picture of last years tree - oh well, you get the idea ~ right" Tessa"?)

#6

Hockey mom's NEVER miss their son's games.

#5
This hockey Mom does double duty!




#4
My baby turned 9 ~ oh gosh my last time to have a child in the single digits!
(i am getting old)

My oldest was home from college for one month ~ oh gosh I have a kid in college!
(i am getting even older)

and the #1



reason why I haven't blogged in over a month..........

I have been taking random pictures in "questionable" neighborhoods.

(taken in Detroit on the side of a building where we picked up meals for Meals on Wheels - nice.

Giving Back

I have taken on a big project....and I am so excited. Not the best time for me to be taking on something like this, but this feels really good. It gives the holidays a whole new meaning.......! Making people happy, people who don't have much.

I am working hard on this .... I will have more details and pictures very very soon!
