Meatball Calzone

Sean and I have youth group on Wednesday nights. I work until 5pm, get home @ 5:30 and have to be at church by 7pm.

Last night I didn't know what was going to work for dinner (we are on our budget now so we promised to limit our dinner-out nights).

We came up with this little number: Meatball calzone

Ingredients:
ready to use pizza dough (we used pillsbury--it was one sale!)
marinara sauce
shredded motzerella cheese
turkey meatballs
**all of these are things we usually have in stock**

Directions:
1. quarter meatballs
2. spread outdough on a baking stone (I <3 pampered chef)
3. cover entire surface with marinara sauce
4. cover half with meatballs
5. cover same half with cheese
6. fold in half
7. bake at 425 for 11 minutes
8. enjoy
9. get a second slice of this delicious goodness before the big eater of the family finishes it off!

We are so excited because this is easy to make, and bakes fast.

Next time we are going to add spinach, and I already have plans for a different one bell pepers and chicken :) yumm

Yay! Happy Eating!

Slowly Loosing my mind..24 days and counting!!

I was chatting online with a friend today and and he asked me who life was going to which I said, "BUSY" and I told him that I was slowly loosing my mind, to which he responded, "slowly???"

Sean also mentioned that I have been a 'bit' fiesty latest. I think getting married in 24 days is kinda getting to me, and all the details that I have been putting off can't be put off anymore.

A small sample of my TODO list:
  • Buy Wedding Reception Insurace
  • Buy Groomsmen gifts
  • Finalize reception music selections
  • Design and print ceremony programs
  • Buy shoes (for me)
  • Buy earrings (for me) didn't think I was going to be so picky!!
  • Buy 'stuff' to wear for the wedding night :/ gosh.. don't know if it really matters.. haha
  • Finalize Vows (gosh this is hard for us..
  • Finalize passage for scripture reading
  • Burn ceremony music for church (this is due today and won't be done!)
  • Seating chart (behhh)

Those are a couple of the larger TODO items.. but I want to know about all those small ones that are not on my list but I know should be..

Sean keeps asking me what he can do to help, and I wish I had an answer for him! I don't really know what else there is to do... I am sure that there is stuff that we aren't thinking of but I don't know what it is. Sean keeps telling me, "Well I don't know what to do, I've never planned a wedding before"--and what.. he thinks that I have?? Poor Sean, he is taking my stress like a champ and listening to me plan and talk to him about things.. and last night he even "staying up" with me while I designed and submitted our guest book (which I really hope turns out okay).

If anyone has any TODO items that they think might have fallen through the cracks PLEASE let me know!
