Why more software developers should write blogs

It's been a while since I wrote my last blog post and with a view to Dustin Marx comment on software developers that should write blogs, I feel to be caught red-handed.

To improve myself, I noted two topics, I would like to talk about in the upcoming posts:

Apple sauce

Today I got up and looked out of my living room window and saw that the nightly wind has torn off a large amount of apples from the tree in our garden. Since I really like to eat apple sauce as side dish, I decided to pick up some of the fruits and cook them. I found a rather simple recipe although it does not avoid the work to peel the apples:

* peel the apples and remove all decayed pieces
* cut the remaining parts into small pieces
* put 250g of apples and 6 table spoon of water into a small box that can be placed in a microwave
* heat the box for 6min in the microwave (800W)
* mash the cooked apples and mix it with sugar as you like it

Acutally I don't know how long it can be stored in the fridge.
