That sounds heavenly. And it even has frosting!
I am still reading New Moon but totally love it. I can’t wait to see the movie next week :)
In October I learned that your good news might be someone else’s bad news…weird but true.

I agree with your apple statement. I try not to overdo the fruit thing, but apples in October are simply amazing. I need to try your apple cinnamon roll breakfast cookie.

Glad you got to enjoy an extra hour of sleep this morning. :)

I learned that apple oats are amazing, and a lack of sleep makes everything seem more catastrophic :)

Um… in October, I learned that nothing beats fresh garlic.

Need to get on that once I have my laptop back. I learned that I can survive without a scale for 3 1/2 weeks and that I can afford to be more flexible with my food/exercise routine without any major changes to my body/weight. Um…just read that back and think it’s kind of big :) I also learned that I like my almond butter with just roasted almonds + salt. No sugar in my nut butter!

It’s true and I need to work on that one a little myself I think! However, there MAY be such thing as too many apples…but perhaps not too many things you can make out of them:) xoxo

I’m pretty sure they’re distributed in the US, but probably not as widely as they are in Canada. http://www.wellnessfoods.ca/

It was my first time tring candy corn! I’m not sure if it’s an “American thing” or if I just completely missed out on it as a kid, but I’d never even heard of it until i started reading blogs. I actually always used the term “candy corn” to refer to sugar-coated popcorn. It’s so good! I almost wish I hadn’t tried it! :P

Now, what did I learn? Well, if you include the giant series of epiphanies I’ve had… I’ve learnt A LOT! I mean, just like the competition thing and all the good things that happened because I entered…

Susan, I think you may have by chance stumbled upon a very plausible theory: October is Life Lesson Month! For some reason, this month has been especially full of lessons, I guess it has something to do with harvesting wisdom :P…(My next post will be dedicated to you and your idea).

Grosses bisses,

Tina

I agree.. candy corn is definitely addicting! Especially the apple flavored ones..yum!

I learned that sometimes hunger signals get off.. and I need to eat more when I workout more!
