Leisure Fall Day

Enjoyed a beautiful Fall day yesterday with my Dear Husband

Then we drove to a local town and visited

an old Covered Bridge

It was a perfect Fall day!

Hope you're enjoying Fall wherever

you are at!

A Sweater Obsession.....

Have you seen the new

and

gorgeous Fall sweaters

out there?!

If not, where in the world

have you been?

My DF Valerie and I went

shopping last

week,

and the different,

gorgeous selections of Fall

clothes out there

is pretty

amazing.

I think more so because

they look

FEMININE!

I'd forgotten what it looks

like to see a

woman dress like a

WOMAN.

(Look at the old black and white movies)

I do my best because I

am a girly

girl, thanks to my mom,

and Great-grandma.

But, ladies, SERIOUSLY!

Do you need to look

like you crawled

out of bed.

Do you need to wear

your pajamas in

public,

I don't care how

comfortable they are,

there are clothes

out there that

are comfortable to wear

and at the same

time

flattering, or is it

that you just

DON'T CARE?

Well,

this year we're surrounded

by Feminine

beauty.

Isnt' she a beauty?

How can you resist?

I found these on

Anthropologie

(a little bit pricey for me)

They have an amazing

collection,

I drooled a little!

But for a little bit less

( I have this one in a Dusty Rose with

that adorable belt too.)

They are having a sale

now and I do

love their

selection.

(this one is so soft and girly, it's the

Corsage Sweater)

(This one too I LOVE)

I LOVE that Argyle is every

where!

These sweaters are BYGO

50% Off

right now at

New York & Co.

So ladies, go out there

and buy at

least one, maybe two, go

with a GF and split

the sales

prices, do what you have

to.

Let's see the Feminine

come back!

Fall Comfort-Gluten Free Apple Cake

A year ago I would of turned my nose

up when hearing

Gluten Free.

But after many hours of research,

finding

great websites and blogs that

feature

Gluten Free Recipes has

been a

WONDERFUL

thing

for me

and dear hubby.

When I first starting baking

with GF flours

it was awful.

The dessert would be

grainy

and

dense.

But there's an Organic market

The Common Market

It's a 45 minute drive from our house

so

I'll make a day of it and run other

errands down there.

But they sell a wonderful GF flour

mix in their

bulk section and it's like using

regular flour.

It's light and airy and my desserts

now come out

as if I used regular white flour.

Now DH loves

my GF desserts.

I made this apple cake on Monday

in a 9x13 Pan

and there is only two pieces

left!

I even have my friends eating

GF,

I don't tell them until after

they take a

bite

but by then all you're hearing

are

OM Goodness, this is

INCREDIBLE!

Gluten Free Apple Cake Recipe Here

(I would cut back on the sugar next time)

A New Diet??!!

Hello, all, are you feeling the cold?

It feels like Fall here.

Cold, wet, damp, YUCKY!

But a great day for

Lentil Stew which I love making

and eating,

but I found out today,

NO MORE LENTILS FOR ME!!

So disappointing!

But I'm desperate so I 'll listen.

I know I've posted this

before,

but I have digestive issues which

has led me to a

Gluten Free

Wheat Free

way of living, but there is still

some issues

I'm dealing with.

So after much research, and

frustrations,

I kept stumbling upon this

Blood Type Diet.

Have you heard of this before?

Well, it's very interesting.

I've read many

websites between last night

and today.

There are many restrictions

but nothing

that I can't handle.

At this point

I will do anything.

One of the

sites even had recipes

for all

blood types which is very

helpful.

So I will start one day

at a time.

I know many of you out there

also deal

with these issues and so many

of you have some

great blogs or sites which

I've found helpful.

So I will be posting my

journey of this new

diet that I'm going to try

and that I

hope is the answer to my

problems.

We shall see.
