Lo-Cal Apple Blueberry Crisp
As a novelist, freelance journalist, and screenwriter, I’m usually at my desk after my morning walk. I break for lunch around noon, then usually around 4:00 pm. To mix up my day, I get creative in another way by playing with food in the kitchen. My Lo-Cal Apple Blueberry Crisp, made with all-natural, organic ingredients, and no refined sugar, can be enjoyed for dessert or afternoon tea.
