Pizza Night!

Last night we had the perfect Friday "ladies night" part-aaa....Pizza night!  For the first time, we somehow managed NOT to cook for 75 people;)...but by no means were we short on flavors or creativity!

I broke out my "Food Network 50 Pizza's Booklet" from their magazine and made this:  Sweet Potato, toasted walnuts, blue cheese and sage on a whole wheat crust.  It was a FALL PIZZA if there ever was one! ;)  (Too bad it's Memorial Day weekend;) hahahahahha....

And my friend made an awesome chicken bruschetta pizza with lots of grape tomatoes, chicken, onions and cinnamon basil from her own garden!  Topped with mozzarella on a garlic herb crust (as we both ran into each other "crust shopping" at the Trader Joe's;) 
We somehow managed to make the 2 most contrasting pizzas around:)  Mine was super thin and crispy, while her's was hearty and melty deliciousness!  Both were SOOO good!!!!

Since it was a tad chilly on the sun porch last night...we needed SOMETHING to warm us up!  Thank goodness I found this CHOCOLATE WINE at Trader Joe's...YES, I said CHOCOLATE WINE!!

Now you just learned yesterday that I am NOT a wine drinker (look at me drinking it 2 days in a row!), but this was too damn intriguing to pass up!  And it did NOT disappoint!  It was a little strong on the wine taste at first, but after a few sips:  all you could taste was the luscious creaminess of the chocolate.  I KNOW it sounds odd, but if THIS GIRL likes it...I imagine a REAL wine drinker would love it!

And finally, our grand finale:  My friend made us a most-decadent CHOCOLATE NUTELLA pizza with white chocolate chips & nuts.  There MAY or may not have been even MORE nutella spread on this after it was warmed in the oven...but I mean, can you blame that person??  Nutella is proof that there is a God and that he wants us to be happy;) hahahahahahhaahhahaha....;)
A MOST delicious evening...and I do believe I am not alone in that sentiment:)  Have a good Saturday!  I already have more things to share later on! ;)

OH and Ps-I DID get that run in yesterday afternoon...and I'm super proud to say I came in 5 minutes earlier than the last few times;)   Must have had at least a FEW more jogs than walks this time around;)
