Good Morning "Losers" in a good way ! On a serious note lets pray for the Hurricane Michael Families so impacted by this storm. For our WW Sisters affected keep stepping forward the future is what you have from today. After having rebuilt my Brothers home twice in 2016 I feel your pain. I am 76 years old in the mold pulling sheetrock shelving crud from everywhere it was no picnic and doing it twice. My son Michael did the reconstruction and used me on things i could handle. I had a lot of weight on this 5'1 frame. I am 83 pounds down and still going. Just know I am thinking about each and everyone of you.

How to make your own Autumn Spices???

Pumpkin Pie Spice is made with 4 spices Cinnamon, Ginger, Nutmeg, and Allspice.

Gingerbread Spice is made with Cinnamon, Ginger and Nutmeg

Good afternoon hope everyone is having a great week. Today is Tuesday and I have walked 2 days in a row. I am at 6200 steps now at 2:00 pm GO GIRL.

I have found a new book for you guys, WW Soups and Stews 103 seasonal recipes with 88 of them 6 points are less. Really good recipes. It starts off with Menus, Appetizers, Fish and Shellfish, Meatless, Meats, Poultry, and Slow Cooker. Found it at Walgreens in the magazine section. $9.99 worth the price.

Another find is Better Home and Garden Fast and Healthy. Again at Walgreens  $9.99 These recipes have all the values to plug into your app. This one offered so much i am having a hard time deciding what to include. It starts of with don't stress and gives some foods that help. I love the Art of Cleanup, which talks about making dishes with whats on hand., high protein easy breakfasts is the bomb!!! Whats not to like chocolate, peanut butter and banana in oats , Tea'd Up Cocktails page 17 for my drinkers. I am going no further get read it modify it to fit your program.

The third one has no values listed but the recipes can be modified. It is the Centennial Kitchen Instant Pot Recipes  again at Walgreens.

Todays recipes are salad dressings. I hate the stuff on the shelves. I will eat almost anything but there is something not right with these bottled dressings, so here goes.
