Last weekend, a very special reader, Krissy, sent this great Fall dinner recipe to me. She tried it for a recent dinner party and it was a HUGE hit. I am so excited to try it this weekend. Krissy said that even though you can use chicken breasts, it comes out best, using the bone in thighs!!!! Bon Appetit!!!

I saw this chart on the wall of my doctor’s office. I thought it was so interesting…there are so many articles that help with healthy eating or tips for weight loss but very little to help control cravings. I love this…and think it is worth a try the next time we are all craving a chocolate bar or cookie!!!!

I recently met with the founders of New Leaf Financial Advisors, Patti and Hilary. I really wanted to talk with them to learn a little bit more about their business and how they can help my readers. Their goal as a company is to provide a balance between education and guidance for their clients to gain knowledge over their finances, leading to a greater well being.

This amazing Fall Apple Caramel Bread Pudding recipe comes today from Watson’s Catering and Events. I thought it was perfect timing for all the local apple picking and the varieties of apples in the supermarket. This recipe is just a sampling of what is on Watson’s fall menu. They have so many wonderful new things for you to enjoy at all of your fall cocktail parties, football viewing parties, dinner parties, book club coffees and so much more.
