Favorite Saturday Morning Breakfast

Just got back from an hour and a half walk in the woods with my girlfriend and Sophie.  Not just wonderful exercise but talking with a friend, having my four footed friend with me and enjoying nature contributes to a healthy life......followed by my favorite Saturday breakfast..
An apple (full of vitamin C and fiber) with crunchie peanut butter (protein & mono-saturated fats), raisins (iron & potassium), and cinnamon (anti oxidants).  There are so many fun flavors and textures going on!
