For my Nature’s Pride recipe I decided to use one of the most delicious and healthy fruits of Fall, apples! (I was given a Nature’s Pride coupon for the bread through Foodbuzz.)

I peeled it and chopped it.

And tossed it into a bowl with a little stevia and a cinnamon.

BSI: Cran-Apple Mashed Sweet Potatoes

I made this to add to oatmeal and yogurt this week. I was going to submit it to Gina at Fitnessista the BSI contest, but it was too simple, I thought.

So we went to get apples, and ran errands today.  When we got home, with tons of

Book Club: Water for Elephants

Last night was our monthly book club meeting at my house.  We  just finished reading Water for Elephants, which we all agreed was good, better than we expected from reading the back cover.  If you are looking for a good book to take on vacation or when you have some extra time, we recommend this!  It is interesting and keeps you entertained while giving you insight into something your probably don’t know much about – the circus!  Our next book:
