A fluttering from the Autumn recipe tree

Thomas Edison estimated he failed at making the light bulb 10,000 times and was proud of it. He didn't really fail 10,000 times, he found 10,000 ways it didn't work so he could find the 1 that did!  Don't give up on whatever you are working on today!  It is not a failure, it is an opportunity to do it again differently!

But let's face it....at the first sign of chill in the air and falling leaves twirling toward the earth we think of fall, and cocoa and pumpkin desserts!  This can be a win/win situation with the right recipe and I think I have found one!  If you are one of those lucky few who doesn't care if they have dessert ever or not, good for you! I am not.  I crave a treat, especially at the holiday time.  Here is a recipe that if you use oat flour becomes gluten free and flavor full!  (Add those flax seeds for some great omega 3's). Plus they can be vegan too!

These bars are so yummy you won't even miss the topping, but low cal enough you can add it!  Plus check out the nutritional value on the page, not bad huh? See, you didn't fail, you found another way to enjoy a treat without feeling like you had to be on a d___ ....well you know, that 4 letter word! Happy Autumn! Warm hugs! Debbie
