Can you explain sauteed apples and basmati rice to me? It sounds yummy! Also, where are there swimsuits on sale?

i got the suit at eddiebauer.com

the rice was just plain old rice.

the apples were:

melt 4 T butter over medium heat. Add 1- 1 1/2 pounds of apples that have been peeled, cored, cut into large chunks. Stir to combine, turn heat to low and cover, leave like that for 10 minutes. Uncover, add 1/2 cup brown sugar and some cinnamon, turn heat back to medium, cook until apples are glazed and softened. Quick and easy!
