Avon Walk Weekly Update
First things first, HAPPY 4th of JULY!!
It’s time again for my weekly Avon Walk update. If you’d like to see my full training calendar, check it out here or on the left sidebar of my blog.
Thoughts on training: Well this time in a week I’ll be on day two of the Avon Walk! Wish me luck! I am not too nervous yet and I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing… I will be sure to post a recap when we get back from the trip.
Thoughts on fundraising: Thanks again to everyone who supported my walk!
Miles walked last week: 6
Minutes doing cardio: 45
Minutes doing cross training or weight lifting: 0
Total $$ raised: $2,789
Thanks to everyone who has donated so far! If you’d like to donate to support my walk, you can make a donation on my Avon Walk page.






I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 






Can I have ALL of these dishes for Thanksgiving?? 😉
Great ideas!
PS, Carbomb cupcakes are happening tomorrow!!
Thank you for all of the yummy recipes that you posted on your blog. I especially like the recipe for Squash Bisque. I just bought a butternut squash and didn’t know what to do with it, so I completely understand the dilemma that you were in! I am going to try it and if it turns out well, then I am going to make it for Thanksgiving. I am always in search for new recipes for the holiday. I work with Better Recipes.com and if you are in search for the same, I recommend you check out their Thanksgiving Recipe Ideas
This looks like a great list of Thanksgiving dishes. Love your post on apple slab as well. I think I’m going to make one next week so I have it ready for Thanksgiving.
Congrats! Your acorn squash photo has been featured as a Photo of the Week on BostonFoodBloggers.com: http://www.bostonfoodbloggers.com/2010/11/photos-of-week.html
So many great Thanksgiving recipes! Yum!
I think I’m just making desserts this year, but I may sneak in that cranberry, caramelized onion, and goat cheese dip as well. Going to check out the recipe now.
