Hello! Sorry for the long absence, just that nothing very interesting has happened in my life from the last update until today.
So anyway, i decided to be a bit motivated and run far far today. Part of the marathon route involves crossing Kembangan mrt, so i decided that ok maybe i'll stop there and take bus back if i'm really very tired.
For that, i needed some money to take bus. I brought some coins, but when i put them in my fbt mini pocket they started to jingle when i ran, which was not very nice. So i thought, hey, why not put them in my shoe, like in the old days??
Bad idea. i ended up with blisters on both feet :( Subsequently hid them in my socks instead but the damage had already been done - BLISTERS!!! :( sigh. I used the money to take bus home from kembangan. haha..
ps. i ran 12.66km today. dont ask me how long i took :P

But healthy? Haha.. me and yq just did the full sundown marathon circuit - on bicycles of course. it took us approx 4 hours, starting off at about 9pm and reaching back home at 1.20am! Of course, considering that we stopped at changi village for supper, toilet breaks etc. Wah damn shiong ok.. Then we came back and next morning we had to wake up at 8.30 to return the rented bikes! :( And since the toyota vios is too small to fit the bikes we had to cycle all the way back there again - another 6.6km! roar. it was so painful to get my ass on that bike seat again, haha. and along the way there was random mishaps - lost slippers, fallen bike chains. we even missed each other while leaving the condo cos i took the side gate while he took the exit and we were wondering ok wth.. haha. lame.. but yeah i came back and slept all the way through to 3pm then woke up to have lunch! really tiring. need to recuperate for work tomorrow...

i would like a new hobby.
i'm sitting at my desk surfing random dive operator websites, thinking of whether (and if) i should go for a trip some time soon, just for fun.
Next to me is my german homework, lying untouched for days. Oh shit.

By Spencer Davis. Last month, I wrote a piece for this website explaining why I fear we've reached the end of music. Those ideas have been floating around in my head all year, and there's a reason for that: I've been largely uninspired by the music that was released in 2017. After years writing about the best in indie rock, Americana, electronic, and hip-hop, I feel like every one of these genres has quietly reached a plateau—a Mobius strip of innovation in the guise of imitation, where nothing sounds new and any creativity by the artist is taking place mostly at the margins. We've reached points before in our musical history where a particular genre lost its ability to leave an impact. Think back to 1998 and how listless rock music had become after a decade of mopey grunge excess. The same phenomenon happened with the waning days of hair metal in 1990, or with pop music around that same time period, or with jazz in the late 50s. In each of these cases, the exhaustion of one art form made room for the birth of another, and rock-and-roll or hip-hop or grunge or indie rose to meet the challenge.
This time, though, feels different. Precisely because all of our musical forms have reached the exhaustion point simultaneously. Hip-hop has become stale, relying on minimalist beats and safe, Auto-Tuned choruses to speak to an ever-narrowing audience in clubs and on top 40 radio. Americana, once a refreshing throwback to the past, now feels increasingly forced and cliched after a wave of hipster Lumineer imitators beat the horse to death. After a decade of laughable Nashville radio filler, country momentarily offered a breath of something new by looking to the past and imitating the sounds of vintage 70s and 80s outlaw country—but the problem with looking backwards is that it gives you nowhere else to go. Electronic and EDM, while conceptually seeming like the obvious place to go if you're looking for the music of the future, instead seem content with confining themselves to a niche of the market, endlessly looping the same sounds and textures and beats with diminishing returns. And rock music? It barely exists anymore, with most indie bands relegating the guitar to an afterthought and established rock stars like U2 doing everything they can to shoehorn elements of other genres into their music in a last desperate bid for continued relevance.
If this is a harsh way to start off a list of the year's best music, I apologize only up to a point. The albums I've listed here are certainly good, listenable music—but are any of them truly great? Will we listen to any of them five years from now, or even one year from now? Looking back to my 2016 list, I can't help but feel that the very best albums of 2017 wouldn't have cracked the top 15 of that list. And sure, maybe that's just a sign of a down year; after all, if we're only a year removed from such superior work, then we may only be a year away from a renaissance. If so, I think it will require something more than repackaging the sounds of the past; it will require new voices, new ideas, and maybe some new names.
So if inclusion on this year's list now reads like a backhanded compliment of sorts, then so be it. The true greats, including possibly even some of the artists I've listed here, will be more then capable of rising to the challenge—or else they're not true greats. Continue reading

IN CONVERSATION WITH: Maggie Rogers
IN CONVERSATION WITH: Maggie Rogers
It is tempting to imagine how Maggie Rogers' career would have rolled out, had she not found viral fame from Pharrell's patronage. This student at the Clive Davis Institute had just started incorporating electronica into her folky songwriting when the visiting producer poured lavish praise on her class project, "Alaska."
It is ironic that a song about a recent personal reclamation ("And I walked off you/And I walked off an old me") led to a renewed loss of control in Rogers' life, one that she has likened to a violation, or, in the naturalistic songwriting she prefers, a bout of freak weather. Now in the twisting and turning world of her career, Rogers is meeting the demand for her. Sold out shows popping up all over the globe and a social following that skyrockets on the daily, there's no stopping her. Luckily for you though, we managed to catch her for a few minutes…
Are you excited for your show?
Yes, I'm super excited. These are the first shows I'm gonna play with my album out and so it's cool cause it is the first time the audience has the chance to know the words like I've been touring for the past two and a half years it feels like I'm throwing a party now.
What's been your favourite show on the tour so far?
Every night seems to just get better and better but we did get to play Dublin on a Friday night which is just pretty awesome. I was playing my song 'Falling Water' and for anyone who doesn't know this song it is kinda like an intense emotional ballad and some girl got on her friend's shoulders and took her top off it was proper rock n roll nothing that I'd expect to see.
When did you first realise that you were gonna become a musician?
I think that's something you decide for yourself. I started writing songs when I was 13/14 but I think I decided I really wanted to be a musician when I was 17.
Which artists did you listen to when you were growing up?
When I was really young I listened to a lot of classical music as my first instrument was the harp. So I listened to lots of Tchaikovsky and Vivaldi. In high school, I got into listening to mid-2000s Indie music Bon Iver, Vampire Weekend and then I discovered Nick Drake and The Talking Heads.
How would you describe your musical development as you are known for your original sound of folk infused with electronic influences?
It has always been about my own experimentation with production cause I feel like I've been writing songs the same way since I was thirteen. It's just like really narrative and me just in my bedroom trying to understand the world and trying to produce them in ways that keep me creatively challenged. So at first it was folk music then I played in a few rock bands and then I was playing bass in a Punk band for a while and did some DJ stuff. On my EP I did some folk – electronic hybrid but now it feels good cause I feel like I've come round to something that feels more true to my background. It's really nice to have these real instruments back in the mix.
Would you say dance influences your music?
I don't think so it is just something I do really naturally. I've always loved to move and if you don't move when listening to music I think you're subconsciously holding yourself back. My favourite type of music is kinda like dancing while crying it is something you can move to and feel to and I think that is what I'm always trying to do with my music. I think in doing that you can give people different ways in.
What would you say 'Heard It In The Past Life' is about and why did you decide to call it that?
I had the title before I had anything else. It is mainly about the last two years of my life where I graduated from college and had this transition. Basically, my private life became very public and I became a professional musician straight out of college and there is just a lot of change. When that change happens different people have different ways of dealing with it or explaining it and my way has always just been writing music.
View this post on Instagram
How would you describe your process of making music as a songwriter and as a producer?
It depends what I am creating on if it is on my guitar. Back In My Body happened that way I wrote it on guitar in my childhood bedroom in Maryland then went to the studio that I had in my parent's barn and sorta decided what I wanted the sonic architecture to look like. But sometimes like 'Falling Water' I'll just start making a beat or making a track on my computer and then write on top of it so it can happen in a couple of different ways but I think no matter what I always go back to guitar and piano where I really check on the structure of the song because the song is the most important thing.
What's your favourite song on your new album?
It depends on what kinda mood you're in. I don't know if I have an answer to that honestly. Falling Water is the song that took the longest but that's not always a sheer sign. It really taught me to edit in a new way that I hadn't before and musically I am probably the proudest of it but lyrically I really love Past Life and from a production standpoint I'm really proud of Overnight. If I wanna dance Say It is probably my favourite. I spent a lot of time with the track listing, thinking about the way I wanted the songs to run into each other. I really love the way the record flows.
What made you want to write Alaska? What headspace were you in at that point?
Alaska was the first song I wrote two years after writer's block and the last thing I had done when I stopped writing was to go on a hiking trip to Alaska the song isn't really about the place as much as I was processing the things as I was walking in the place.
How was your experience performing on Saturday Night Live?
It was insane. I just walked in and started crying like I was just really overwhelmed that that was even happening. Even you asking me that question I guess I still can't believe that even happened. I feel like it is in the realm of dreams you don't say out loud. It is just like crazy. I grew up watching this TV show and I never thought it was a possibility that I could be on it one day. It was really an honour to be a part of that.
Who are your favourite up and coming artists?
I really love Rosalía and Phoebe Bridgers and this band Big Thief the lead singer in that band Adrianne Linker is one of my favourite songwriters. Phoebe is a friend of mine… I don't know Rosalía but I think her music is amazing.
Are there any artists that you'd like to collaborate with in the future?
I really love James Blake and am constantly drawn in by his production. I'm a giant Brockhampton fan and would love to work with them but I don't know if they are open to that cause I know they're such a collective and I have so much admiration for that. I don't know maybe Dolly Parton if I'm really dreaming I think that'd be cool.

From the 1st June 2017 Aiguille took over the manufacture and distribution of Snowsled pulks, hauling equipment and the Mountain Rescue Vacuum Mattress.
Snowsled was established in 1988 and began by making Nansen sledges for the British Antarctic Survey and also kevlar pulks.
Since then Snowsled manufactured for a whole range of polar travellers, including adventure seekers and polar challengers, expeditions with a mixture of science and fun and governments and universities around the world with national collaborative programmes of scientific research.
All products were 'Made in Britain'; sleds and all sewn items were produced 'in-house', giving both the benefit of quality control and the advantage of being able to respond fast to non-standard requests.
In the early 1990's Ventile clothing and pyramid tents followed.
In 2007 Snowsled produced the first HDPE plastic pulks which have since risen in prominence and recognition as they have proved themselves to be a much cheaper, more user friendly and equally efficient alternative to composite pulks.
In addition, Snowsled had recreated older sled designs from over 100 years ago which have appeared in a number of TV films.
They also developed and manufactured equipment for the emergency rescue services, including the full-body vacuum mattress developed specially for the Mountain Rescue Committee of England and Wales. This design has been in commission for over 20 years.
Aiguille have now moved production of the HDPE pulks and Mountain Rescue vacuum mattresses to Cumbria alongside our existing outdoor equipment production. We are looking forward to continuing to develop this exciting product range.

It's somewhere around the summer holidays that people begin to notice all the things around their homes that need fixing.
But that doesn't mean you have to call in the professionals. Many projects are easy to DIY and just require a little time and elbow grease.
Tackling one or more of these projects will go a long way towards refreshing your home over the holidays. Interior painting
Photo: Stocksy
Just about anyone is capable of this one. Assuming your surfaces only need a light prep and you are painting them yourself, you can expect the cost of paint to average out about $50-$100 per room.
You will also have the expense of rollers, brushes and masking tape, as well as sugar soap or whatever you decide to clean your walls with.
If you have wallpaper to remove, or there are little nicks or gouges in the wall, you will need to fix them first. Allow as much time for preparing the surfaces as for painting them. You will need to patch the imperfections, sand, clean then mask any areas you aren't painting, around windows, door handles and ceilings, before you start the actual painting.
Typically prep and painting will take anywhere from 3 to 6 hours per room, but sometimes more. This includes prepping and painting the trims which can sometimes take longer than the walls.

Fixing up an entertaining area or improving the street appeal of your property is an ideal holiday project.
On a budget? Simply transplant plants and cuttings that friends and family are happy to hand off. If you've got some money to spend, buy a range of plants and style your backyard accordingly. Allow around $800 for an average front yard; this will give you a pretty solid look.
While it can be difficult to estimate the time frame of a landscaping job, I'd allow a small job to be done in a day. If there are pavers to lay or a lot of landscaping needed, you are looking at three or four days of solid work. Door Handles
Replacing outdated door handles can do a lot to refresh the look and feel of a house. There are lots of videos on YouTube that will show you what handle to look for and how to put it together properly. Allow between $30 and $50 per set of handles.
A expert will usually take 20-40 minutes per door to install handles, so if it's your first time, it will probably be double this – at least for the first few doors. Timber floors
Photo: Stocksy
If you're a reasonably confident DIYer, you might want to have a go at redoing your timber floors. A quick sand and a new coat of clear varnish will have the floors looking brand new.
Many of my clients have successfully tackled this job themselves. Take a look at a few YouTube videos first to make sure you know what you are doing, and test your skills in an area that is seen less often, like under a bed or in the office.
You can hire a floor sander for about $150-$200 a day. It should take you about three or four days to do the whole job. Curtains
Photo: Luigi Rosselli Architects/ Houzz Australia
This is a relatively simple job and a great way to improve the aesthetics of your home. If you've already got tracks in place, then it's just a case of replacing the curtains.
The different styles of hooks can be confusing, so take photos of tracks, or take them into a curtain shop so the staff can help you work out what you need.
Ready-made curtains can cost as little as $50 a set and can be installed in a matter of hours. Retiling the kitchen splashback
Photo: Hommemaker
If you're quite handy, you might want to have a go at updating the kitchen splashback by retiling it. However, this is one job where you'll want to weigh up your experience level, and the type of tiles you are going to use, before you dive straight in. Some tiles are trickier to align and won't look good if done by somebody who is not experienced.
Again, YouTube is a great place to gather info, get tips and watch how the professionals do it.
Before you start, make sure you consider the knock-on effect so it doesn't turn into a mountain of a job. For example, if your tiles sit behind the benchtops, it will become a much more complex task.
Cost to DIY a new tile splash-back? Anywhere from $100-$500 for your materials (plus tools). Refreshing surfaces
Simple tasks like water blasting driveways and cleaning gutters are jobs many homeowners can tackle. They are labour-intensive, but are not too expensive and can make a huge difference to the outside appeal of your home.
The only costs involved are your water blaster, which can be hired for about $100-$200 a day, and any chemicals that might be needed. A job like this will take you anywhere from half a day to a few days depending on how big and how dirty your property is.

In typical coach Summitt fashion, here's what she told the Knoxville News Sentinel:
I have poked a bit of fun at Pat Summitt here in my blog, I call her the Queen, and The Summitt, and even The Grande Summitt (I think) but it's been in good fun. Even if I didn't always root for her team, I've always loved watching Summitt. Almost single-handedly, she dragged women's basketball onto the front pages of the sports sections. For years, for decades really, she was the face of women's basketball. She carried the sport and, in doing so, she carried all female athletes and all of us. I love her for that.
"There's not going to be any pity party and I'll make sure of that, ... I feel better just knowing what I'm dealing with. And as far as I'm concerned it's not going to keep me from living my life, not going to keep me from coaching."
So today's news made me truly, deeply sad. Just in your bones sad. I wish her, her team and her family all the best. And I hope that Summitt can find a way to coach for a good while longer at Tennessee. Still I have to admit, dementia is a scary bastard.
According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information's website, "Most types of dementia are nonreversible (degenerative). Nonreversible means the changes in the brain that are causing the dementia cannot be stopped or turned back."
Summitt is tough and brave and strong. Basically, in a National Championship, my money's on Summitt. In a street fight, my money's on Summitt. In a battle against most diseases or illnesses, my money would always be on Summitt. No question.
But when it comes to dementia, I haven't heard many success stories. I don't think it can be 'beaten,' but if anybody can find a way to thrive despite dementia, this lady is it. Good luck, coach.

I saw a Twitter thread go around recently about the monthly costs for services from the perspective of a web developer. Years ago I did a post like that over on CSS-Tricks, also from a personal level. I thought it would be interesting to document this kind of thing at the company level.
Let's look at the recurring costs of a startup. Say, CodePen 😉
This is intentionally omitting one-off costs. For example, whenf a new employee starts they get a laptop. Par for the course for a tech job. We might replace that laptop years later, but it's not really an ongoing or monthly expense in the spirit of this article. We're also not including things like office costs.
These are the services we use to host CodePen, manage our DNS, wrangle our source code, deliver our email, and track errors.
Amazon Web Services
~$8,000 / month
We run the bulk of our infrastructure on AWS. Other than salaries, servers are our #1 expense. They are also a strength of CodePen. We have a lot of internal knowledge on running servers and that unlocks a lot of possibility for us. It's not unusual for us to run 40+ servers on some days, which is a combination of database servers, web servers, and all sorts of different services split off onto their own servers, like EC2, RDS, Lambda, CloudFront, S3, EFS. We've talked about servers a bunch on CodePen Radio:
Honestly, our monthly costs on AWS fluctuate quite a bit, as we spin up and down servers for various reasons all the time. We do our best to buy reserved instances to save money.
$60 / month for three domains
We use Cloudflare for things like low-level DDoS protection. It's rather astounding how much value you get out of Cloudflare for such an affordable price: $20/month per domain. We've found, for the features we find the most valuable, this is the only plan we need. For us it works out to a bit more than $20 a month because we're using it on more than one domain, but it's still a great value.
$32/month for 8 users
We used GitHub for a long time for our private repos, but ultimately switched to the self-managed version of GitLab for a variety of reasons. We're very happy with it! We talked about making the switch on our podcast, and GitLab covered it on their blog.
~$500 / month
We use Sparkpost for sending email. The CodePen Spark email newsletter goes out to over 1,000,000 users. We considered using Mailchimp, but we figured out that the Mailchimp plan for that would cost us $4,200 / month. Mailchimp is great, but that's a bit cost-prohibitive for us. Instead, SparkPost is more of a lower-level API that just handles delivering email for us and basic analytics.
That means we had to build a lot of email infrastructure ourselves though! We use a system called ETL to do that. We got into the details of ETL in a two-parter on CodePen Radio:
Media Temple and Jetpack
Hosting $150/month
Jetpack Professional $299/year
This very blog is a self-hosted WordPress site. It's on a pretty basic Media Temple server. I have a DV Level 3 server that hosts this and a handful of other little sites. We decided to host the blog on a separate server from the main site in the early days on purpose so we could use it to communicate in case anything went wrong with the main site.
These days, it still feels convenient to be using WordPress, because it's not just the blog — we use it for the docs, the podcast, our meetups listings, and the store.
WordPress itself is free, but hosting it and add-ons can cost money, like Jetpack which we use for features like real-time backup of the entire site including database. Even WooCommerce and the ShipStation integration we use is free.
$59 / month
We use a medium Honeybadger plan for Ruby error tracking. It gathers up all the vital info about errors throughout CodePen to help us track down bugs.
We talked with the Honeybadger team on CodePen Radio, too! #105: Honeybadger.
Firebase / Firestore
$15 / month
Some of the data, and particularly some of the real-time feature of CodePen are driven by Google's Firebase service, like Firepad and our Collab Mode. We mostly use Cloud Firestore, as it's the modern data store from Google that seems like where they are going, but some things we needed to keep on Firebase, so depending on the page we use either/or. It's amazingly cheap for how much it does for us.
~$10 / month
We use Twilio only super lightly, using it to power the ability to send the URL of a Pen via text to a mobile device (useful for quick testing).
$11.95 / month
Pingdom monitors services. Its always watching our web servers and other services to make sure they are up, and alerts us when they go down.
Communication and Organization
We're entirely remote, so we rely heavily on software to stay connected. Here's what we use to communicate and keep ourselves organized.
$64 / month
Like so many other teams in the world, we use Slack as a primary communication tool. We use it all day, every day to work together across all our different time zones. We're on a standard plan.
$119.92 / month for 8 users
There are lots of video chat options out there, including free ones, but we pay for Zoom because it's the only group video chat thing that has consistently worked great for all of us, all the time. I don't particularly like the app UI, but when it comes to talking to your team, what you need is really good clear communication, and that's what Zoom does well.
tfw you're the one an Australian timezone pic.twitter.com/wE3dZ4jvI0
— Rach Smith 🌈 (@rachsmithtweets) September 25, 2018
$32 / month for 8 users
At first glance, Notion looks like just another note-taking app. But it's way more than that to team CodePen. We use Notion for a ton of things:
- Internal documentation
- Managing our newsletter and podcast advertising schedules
- Project management with kanban boards and todo lists
We went in-depth on how we use Notion in CodePen Radio #154: Internal Documentation. And if you're a regular listener of the show you know we've talked about it a bunch this past year as we've gotten more attached to it.
$100 / month for 8 users on the Standard Business Plan
We've been using Dropbox since the start. Honestly, we've been moving away from it a bit but I'm not sure we'll ever entirely lose it. It is still quite useful to have a shared set of files between the team. But between apps like Notion where we keep all our text-ish documents, Figma where we do our design, and Gitlab where we keep any app-related files, we don't use it a heck of a lot. Nonetheless, it's still an extremely handy place to quickly save or share a file, so it's not likely we'll let go of our team account anytime soon.

Droplr is a menu-bar app for screenshots. We use it to create and share screenshots internally and with members through our support. The great thing about Droplr is that it instantly creates a shareable link to your image, which you can mark up to highlight details. You can also password protect or set a screenshot to "self destruct" after a set period of time.
$40 / month for 8 users on Basic Plan
Our Google Apps account is indispensable to us as the home of our domain email and our shared calendars. Our subscription also includes Google Drive, but we've moved away from Drive into Notion and Dropbox over time.
$31.92 / month for 8 users on Team Plan
We use 1Password to store passwords, of course. We also use it for secure notes. Our team subscription gives everyone access to our shared vault team, plus individual vaults.
Support and Social Media
When we first got started, we handled our support inbox and social media directly in each app, but as we've grown we had to find ways to streamline it all.
$120 / month for an 8 member team
Front is our unified inbox for all of our support channels. It's great for managing high-volume inboxes, with features like conversation assignment, snoozing, tagging, and internal notes. We talked about getting started with Front in CodePen Radio #84: Front.
$15 / month
We use Buffer to schedule our social media posts. It's simple to use, and it makes it so we can consistently post on our social media accounts even when we're all away from our desks. Our favorite feature is the Instagram integration — though Buffer can't directly post a video to Instagram on our behalf, the way they handle the posting reminder is great.
We talked about bringing Buffer into our workflow in CodePen Radio #120.
$39 / month for the Professional Plan
Wufoo is our go-to for contact forms. We use it for our support form, our meetup host form, and for one-off forms and surveys. Team CodePen has its roots at Wufoo, too! The three founders all worked at Wufoo before starting CodePen.
As a SaaS company, we need software to process payments. And, as a company with employees, we need a service for payroll, too!
Stripe & Braintree
Stripe Pricing = 2.9% + 30¢
Braintree Pricing = 2.9% + 30¢
We use Stripe and Braintree to process payments for CodePen PRO subscriptions. We prefer working with Stripe as developers because the APIs are so well done and pretty much everything they do is useful and nice. But Braintree lets our customers pay with PayPal, which many of our members prefer.
These services aren't a fixed monthly cost, but instead are a cut on every single transaction.
$87 / month for 8 people
We use Gusto for our payroll. It's user-friendly and reliable. It also has handy features for employees to manage their own tax withholding or make charitable donations directly from their paychecks.
$10 / month
Gotta do that accounting. We have actual accountants too, but I suppose they don't really count as software.
Can't design a web app without some design tools!
$60 / month for 5 users
When our lead designer, Klare Frank, joined the team, we started using Figma to collaborate on design. The whole team can work together in Figma to preview, comment, and iterate on a design.
We talked about getting started with Figma in CodePen Radio #180: Design.
$99 / month
Litmus is a tool for testing what your email design looks like across a ton of different email clients. It was very helpful for us when we redesigned our newsletter, The CodePen Spark. We've also used it to test our drip email to make sure it looks great in every inbox.
It's a bit pricey so we tend to flip on an account when we're actively using it and flip it off when we're not.
Shutterstock & The Noun Project
$229 for a on-demand Shutterstock plan every 6 months or so
$9.99 / month for The Noun Project
These are both royalty-free image services. We use Shutterstock for stock photos for things like our Challenges email. We use our Noun Project subscription for vector icons for our podcast page.
We use both of these quite often for social media work as well!
Upcoming Services
We have some in-development features that will be using paid services to deliver part of what powers that feature. We find that a common theme on today's web. There are so many companies providing niche services out there that do such an excellent job with them at usually affordable prices, that a smart startup can do a good job at focusing on whatever their main thing is and outsourcing the rest.
In a sense, that's what this whole list is, but I even mean pretty core technological things. For example, Zeit Now does an incredible job at spinning up containers quickly. There will be lots of startups leveraging that kind of thing. Companies like GetStream can handle advanced social features, which can be a vital aspect of your app, but perhaps not your core competency as a team.

Knowledge is Power
Knowledge… Are you getting enough of this daily essential?
Hello my friends, welcome to Chapter 45 of Sanguine Stories. This month we're exploring Sanguine Element #8: Innovation.
I once had a conversation with a property owner who had wanted to come over on a particular day to do some work at the house. I told her it wasn't good timing as I would be taking an online training on that day and couldn't be interrupted. She looked at me oddly and said – why are you taking a class? You finished school decades ago, why are you still learning?
That's a rather common sentiment for where I live. Especially in the rural areas, if they get to the 8th grade, many consider that sufficient.
Which is so very different from my way of thinking. One of the best things about life – in my opinion – is that we never have to stop learning.
Life in itself is a never-ending educational experience, and learning as part of our lives should never be limited to just the four walls of a schoolhouse and only for school-aged children.
Learning should extend beyond –into our adult lives– because it enriches our daily experiences, enhances our thinking capacities and widens the horizons of our minds.
Learning helps us become more innovative and resilient. Which hits on two of the 11 sanguine elements!
Knowledge is Power
As humans, we are not stuck where we are but rather we can keep the path open – and explore new paths – for any and all kinds of new skills and experiences. We should always be ready to learn something new, venture into terrains that may have appeared challenging or difficult, and take time to discover the unfamiliar.
We become more enlightened, wise and compassionate when we are open to learning new ways of being, doing and living out in the world. It helps us gain fresh experiences throughout the course of our life. These experiences will then make us better people and teach us how to tackle the challenges that life presents to us in innovative ways – so that we not only survive but thrive.
There are always new things that can be learned on any given day.
Learning something new every day – even just learning a new word – keeps you energized and fresh, and it keeps your brain active and alive!
The world is a huge whirlpool of experience and knowledge, and there is so much we don't know… until we explore on the internet, take a trip to a foreign country or sign up for a class to learn something new.
New worlds can be discovered just by picking up a book – something that in general costs only a few dollars or can even be borrowed for free from your local library.
To lead a more happy, healthy and harmonious life, you must be open to and looking for ways to improve yourself for the better. It can help you so much in life – with both personal life satisfaction as well as professional gain.
Learning Makes Us Happier
Learning is not easy and at times can be very frustrating. This is always the case when you push yourself outside of your comfort zone. But even though the task might be harder, we can add to our happiness level when set ambitious goals and learn something new. It's an intrinsic happiness rather than seeking happiness externally.
One of the main reasons I created the Do-It-Yourself versions of the 30 day Simply Sanguine program and the Inherent Harmony personal development program was so that people like you could learn to be a happier – more sanguine – version of yourself AND learn how to get comfortable with the discomfort of stepping outside your comfort zone.
Learning Makes Us Irreplaceable To People Around Us
Darwin's evolutionary theory is that only the fittest survive. He really wasn't referencing the "strongest", it was more about who best can adapt. Who best can innovate and handle the changes and challenges they are faced with.
In the long history of humankind (and animal kind, too) those who learned to collaborate and improvise most effectively have prevailed. – Charles Darwin
While technically we are all replaceable, learning new skills helps us become more adaptable to change and if we look at just the last century and a half, from the first cars driven off the lot to the technology used for the first Star Wars movies (which we thought was pretty amazing at the time) to the lines around the Apple stores whenever a new phone is released… we can see that our world is always in a constant state of change.
Learning Makes Us Better Role Models For Others
Teaching others what you have been able to learn is one of the best feelings in the world. It's why I love offering these podcasts and my written blogs – because I know that not everyone can work with me 1×1 but I still get to share my education and experience, supporting others in living their ONE beautiful life.
Apart from making a positive impact in the life of the person being taught, they will have the opportunity to pass the knowledge along to other people. So many positive ripples can be created by learning and teaching, rinse and repeat.
Learning Makes Us Humble
When we are looking for opportunities to learn as much as possible, we become more humble and less arrogant. When others see that we are open to learning, they tend to feel more comfortable with us. They realize we are not judging them but rather trying to understand. To find a middle ground.
Every interaction that we have is an opportunity to learn, and it is important to note that no matter the kind of situation we might be in, there's is always a valuable lesson to learn from it.
Ongoing learning should be a part of our culture. Every culture. Around the world.
Interested in becoming a better version of your already beautiful self? Come check out the programs I offer – maybe one of them will resonate with you!
Share the love…
I'd love to hear from you… What are you learning right now? What books are you reading? What other ways are you incorporating learning into your daily life? g

When the weather turns chilly, break out the coffee drinks. These recipes give you more options than you'll find at your local coffeehouse, and by making the drinks yourself, you can customize exactly what goes into them. Why not get a good coffee maker, become your own barista, and try these pinnable coffee drinks this fall?
Coffee Drinks for Cool Fall Days in the Texas Hill Country
We hate spam too, we'll never share your email address
1. Hot Vanilla Caramel Latte
Photo: Pinterest/Valya's Taste of Home
Save money and make a hot vanilla caramel latte at home. With Valya's Taste of Home recipe, you won't have to purchase coffee drinks like this one for $5 apiece. Best of all, you get to choose the type of milk used. Whether you want organic, soy, almond, lactose-free, or another type of milk, use it in this easily customized coffee recipe. Since the coffee creamer also comes from a handmade recipe, you can adapt that, too, to your dietary needs or tastes.
2. Better Than Starbucks Caramel Macchiato
Photo: Pinterest/Tracy – Baking Mischief
Few things compare to freshly made caramel, and the inclusion of homemade caramel sauce makes this recipe from Baking Mischief stand out from coffee drinks from Starbucks. Unlike overly sweet coffee house concoctions, this homemade drink lets you adjust the flavor to your preference, and the fresh caramel sauce on top tastes better than anything from a bottle. The caramel sauce recipe produces enough for four drinks, so quadruple the coffee recipe to serve a group.
3. Vegan Mexican Mocha
Photo: Pinterest/Life Currents
You might have thought mocha had to have dairy in it. Let Life Currents' recipe for vegan Mexican mocha change your mind. This chocolate and coffee drink uses coconut milk for creaminess and flavor. Mexican chocolate tablets give this drink its distinctive flavor, and in the Texas Hill Country, you can purchase those tablets at almost any supermarket in the hot cocoa section. When you crave chocolate and still want a caffeine boost, try coffee drinks like this rich mocha.
4. Simple Maple Latte

The Indian real estate industry, which has been quite a conundrum, has started to see investment by foreign investors. At this point, the retail real estate market appears promising despite global concerns and economic uncertainty due to various initiatives and measures introduced by the government to restore confidence in the sector.
After the liquidity crisis in the non-banking financial company (NBFC) space, liquidity in the realty industry has dried up and Indian developers have been exploring debt and equity funding from various PE firms. Responding to an increasingly savvy consumer base and, bearing in mind the globalisation aspect, Indian real estate developers have shifted gears and have explored funding from outside. Singapore invested the maximum, followed by PE players from the US and Canada.
Seeing the potential of the realty sector, the investor-friendly reforms initiated by the government and positive sentiment following India's first Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) offering, private equity and venture capital investments in the industry have reached $4.47 billion in 2018 and $249 million in Q1 of 2019.
In the first quarter of 2019, the industry has seen an investment to the tune of $2.5 billion, or Rs 17,682 crore, on strong flows from foreign investors into commercial assets. The central government along with state governments has taken several initiatives to encourage the development of the industry. Increasing transparency and friendly investment policies have improved opportunities in the warehousing and logistics segment, with office and retail industry showing continued traction.
Also the successful REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) listing has opened up another avenue for investors to participate in the Indian realty story, mainly the office market. Investment in office properties rose to Rs 7,925 crore from Rs 6,100 crore during the January-March quarter of 2019. While the hospitality segment received Rs 3,950 crore, the industrial segment (warehousing and logistics) got Rs 760 crore.
Going forward, a stable government at the centre, transparency in the system and with other initiatives, the industry should see good growth. Retail, hospitality and commercial segments of real estate have been growing considerably, providing the much-needed infrastructureNSE -1.49 % to India's growing needs. Moreover, foreign investors are confident about India's robust commercial office market and they have preferred India as a destination to park funds after China.
Besides commercial spaces including office and retail, foreign players are also diversifying their portfolios and eyeing sunshine sectors like logistics and warehousing. There are projections that the industry will grow to $650 billion by 2025, cross $850 billion by 2028 and touch $1 trillion by 2030.

Milkmaid-Nutella Chocolatey Fudge
- In a Non-Stick Pan, take all the ingredients and Cook it in a Medium flame.
- Keep a Flat-plate greased with little oil/ghee ready.
- When it starts leaving the pan and comes together, transfer it to the greased plate and let it set for 30-minutes.
- Cut into pieces using a sharp knife and refrigerate for 1 hour. Another easy method would be to roll them into small balls/Laddus and refrigerate for an hour and Serve.
- They just melt into your mouth with every bite.

Monday's workout marked a true milestone for me – I did my first chin ups without the use of a ladder to support some of my weight. I did 2.5 chin ups before I had to resort to using the step ladder for the rest of my reps. I think the last time I was able to do a chin up was in grade school. Even when I was working with my trainers, I was never able to achieve the strength that I have now.
This work out really works if you follow the instructions. I have been showing off my arms quite a bit lately. I will post pictures soon – I need to take some new ones.

The knitting, spinning, cooking, and running ramblings of a Libran. Whatever shall I do first?
Tuesday, August 01, 2006
Just Passing Through
Whew...what a weekend! San Francisco was gorgeous, Tom ran a great marathon, setting a PR at 4:10:45 (more about that later), and there was even some stash enhancement at Art Fibers.
We spent a lot of our time walking around the city because we didn't have a car. Walking is such a good way to see a city and absorb its essence. It brings the city down to a human scale and makes it possible to notice details that you wouldn't have whizzing through the streets in a car or on a bus. And no, we didn't take any cable cars.
We did, however, go to the Farmers Market on the Embarcadero on Saturday morning. It was spectacular. They were celebrating peaches and there was definitely cause to celebrate. There were so many varieties of peaches and nectarines and plums and they were all good. So juicy and so sweet. I sampled everything I could and was very sad that we couldn't bring anything back.
All the vegetables were gorgeous and everything seemed to be organic. Mushrooms...they had so many different varieties of mushrooms.
Breads...to die for. Cheeses made from raw milk...outstanding. Cured salmon and salmon jerky...delicious. Flowers...gorgeous. That market made me want to pull up the stakes back east and move to San Francisco.
The restaurant options were also outstanding. To say that San Francisco has a lot of restaurants is an understatement. It was hard to choose from all the many restaurants. Friday night we ate at Greens, a vegetarian restaurant located in Ft. Mason. We sat by the window and looked out over the marina and the bay, with a view of the Golden Gate Bridge. As we were waiting for dinner to be served, I noticed this large ungainly fish slowly swimming near the building. I had never seen a fish that large...wait! It's a seal! I saw a real live, non-zoo seal! That was very exciting. Later that evening, it swam back into the marina. I took that to be a good omen for our trip. The food at Greens was delicious; if you have a chance to eat there, please do, even if you aren't a vegetarian. You won't even notice the lack of meat. We had planned to have an early dinner on Saturday in the North Beach district, which is full of small restaurants and cafes. Much to our surprise and dismay, most of the restaurants already had a wait and that was at 6:00! So we ate here instead. Cafe Zoetrope is owned by Francis Ford Coppola. The food was okay, but the building was very cool. Unfortunately, we didn't sight Francis, although there were hints on Sunday afternoon that he might show up. If he did, we missed him.
We were up early on Sunday for the marathon. Tom got up at 3:45; I followed at 4:30. His start time was 5:50. I saw all the runners off
and went back to the hotel for a quick shower. My breakfast plans were thwarted, since the place I wanted to eat didn't open until 10:00, which would be about the time Tom would be crossing the finish line. Since I had a couple of hours to kill, I took some photos, watched the winner cross the finish line (in about the same time it takes me to run a half marathon), and got to knit in public for a bit. Tom was running with the 4:10 pace group and my heart sank when the pace group leader came in, but with no Tom in sight. A few minutes later (which seemed like forever) he came in:
(Click the photo to enlarge it; Tom is in the green shirt, second or third one back.)
As usual, he thought he did terrible. He dropped the pace group around mile 20 or so. Since we didn't have access to the Internet, we couldn't look up his time. My parents came to the rescue later in the afternoon and said that his time was 4:10:45, which was better than he thought (and it was only 45 seconds off his goal time). When we got home last night, he checked the official race results. He wasn't there. He found the unofficial race results and his half time is missing, even though he crossed the half mat with the rest of the pace group. Because of that, it seems that he was disqualified. He ran his best time ever and because of a technical problem, was probably disqualified. He has written to the race director, and I think he should protest. He has witnesses that he crossed the half mat, since he was with the pace group at that time. It's heartbreaking. I feel like he's been robbed. He trained so hard for this race and was so psyched about running it. It seems so unfair.
To celebrate his accomplishment, we had dinner at Town Hall which was recommended by one of Tom's friends. It was within a good walking distance from the hotel, although when we went looking for it on Friday, we went the long way 'round, since we didn't know how the blocks were numbered. The food was excellent, the wine very good, and the dessert? To die for. We shared a butterscotch and chocolate pot de creme. Yum YUM!
Other highlights of the trip include wandering through parts of Chinatown (although the parts we saw on Saturday were touristy), and a trip to Artfibers where I bought a small quantity of Alfabeto (a silk/mohair blend) in color 6. If you buy yarn, they'll interpret your design into a pattern for free. I took advantage of that service, but feel a bit guilty because I should be able to write out my own pattern. It feels like cheating somehow. We'll see how the pattern knits up and if it ends up looking like what I imagined.
We also visited the Hass-Lilienthal House which was a rather long walk from the hotel. The concierge recommended taking a cab, saying it was too far to walk. It was only about 13 blocks. The bonus was that we got to see the non-touristy parts of San Francisco. The house is beautiful and the tour guide was very knowledgeable, given that he is a restoration carpenter and furniture maker. It was interesting to see elements that were similar to our house, although our house is on a much smaller scale. We learned a lot about the local building materials of the era, as well as cost-cutting measures for homebuilding (faux graining on redwood instead of using more expensive white oak, for example). This house was a middle class house, and it puts our middle class houses to shame (not to mention that they had staff; I'd like to have staff). This is an exterior view of the house:
I used to think that I'd like to live in that era, but I suspect that I'd find it too restricting. They didn't have a yard or garden and I don't think I could have been happy not going outside. Of course, if I was raised that way, I probably would have been somewhat content. We'll never know, will we?
The walk back took us through Chinatown again, but this time it was deep into Chinatown, through the residential areas and the non-touristy shops. Of course, we had no idea what anything was because the signs were all in Chinese, but it was fascinating. As we walked past one alley and glanced in, we saw someone practicing being a Chinese dragon. He was wearing the dragon head and weaving it around, opening and closing its eyes and mouth. I didn't get a picture; it seemed somehow wrong. But it was a beautiful thing to watch and the dragon head was so pretty.
It's good to be home although I'm definitely wanting some San Francisco weather. The high temperature for the weekend was on Sunday, when I think it got into the 70s. All the rest of the time, it was in the 60s, which was a little chilly, but refreshing. And now that we're back, we're facing temps of close to 100, with the heat index much higher than that.
Tomorrow we head down to the Outer Banks. Given that the weather there is just as hot here, I don't think I'll be getting a lot of beach time. Way too hot. My little tootsies will be scorched walking down to the beach.
One Skein
I sent the second package off to my secret pal. This is what it contained:
A skein of Douceur et Soie, some local honey, some handmade paper (not by me), and a few beaded stitch markers. My pal said that she loves knitting with Douceur et Soie, but has not seen the periwinkle color before. I'm still enjoying doing this exchange. It's fun to try to figure out what my pal's likes and dislikes are and then find the appropriate items. I'd really like to spin some yarn for her, but my spinning isn't good enough yet.
Knitting Progress
The second Trekking sock is almost done. I finished turning the heel on the flight back yesterday and while it isn't going to be finished today (the end of the knit along), it's close. No more progress on the Rasta Colors hat, although that will be a beach trip project and the scarf for my pal is getting longer. I'm still not happy with the edges, but it's probably too late now. Because it's essentially stockinette stitch, the edges are curling in. Maybe I'll have enough yarn to do a small crocheted edging. I like the lace pattern; I just don't like the edge. It's clearly a novice's lace project.
Well, that's about it for now. This post turned out to be longer than I expected. A bit long-winded, actually.
Next time, a Stitches East class preview. I registered by 1:00 on the opening day of registration and I got my third choice for Thursday afternoon and my second choice for Friday. But regardless, it should still be good.
Time to do more laundry! Have a great week and stay cool, wherever you are!

Ohhhhh, I lurrrrve San Francisco! It's my favorite US city, and your "tour" was great to read -- makes me want to go back there right now (especially with their cool summers).

Years ago my brother and I visited San Fransisco and it has remained one of my favorite trips ever. (also one of the shortest, sadly... Still, it was a fabulous city!) Too bad the good came with the bad in terms of Tom's race. Hopefully that can be resolved. One would think that there would be a more effective system in place for so large an event! Still, a personal record is nothing to sneeze at.
Good luck readjusting to the tropical temps of the eastern half of the country. What the heck is going on here????
What a great recap! It sounds like you and T. had a great trip and got to enjoy some of the less common parts of the city - the neighborhoods.
Sorry to hear about T.'s mishap with the marathon. I agree, he should protest. Especially if it meant so much to him.
You're so kind... I would've totally taken a picture of the Chinatown alleyway and the practicing dragon. But even without it, your description is lovely.
- emily said...
Glad you had fun in SF-- sounds like it was really a great time. This city rarely disappoints in the food and bev department ;)
Thanks for the encouraging words about my 1/2 marathon run, by the way!
Sorry to hear about your husband's race timing thing-- maybe it was a computer glitch that will get worked out? Especially if many people had that happen.

GM OBD Trouble Code 22
Throttle Position Sensor Error (Signal Low)
The Throttle Position sensor signals the Engine Control Module as to the current position of the engine throttle valve. The current throttle valve opening is based on the driver's input from the gas pedal. The ECM uses the information from this sensor to help calculate fuel delivery and spark timing.
Fault Code Description
- 22 - Throttle Position sensor error (signal low, shorted circuit)
- Extended cranking, possible no-start condition
- Lack of power
- Erratic transmission operation
Common Problems
- A failed Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) would be the most common causes for code 22
- Testing the TPS circuit would involve checking voltage and ground from the ECM—5v is the normal reading between the ECM reference circuit and the ECM ground circuit at the TPS connector. Checking the TPS signal circuit to the ECM would involve monitoring the TPS signal on a scan tool while jumping the 5v reference and the signal circuits. The TPS reading should go from high when the circuit is "jumpered" to low when the jumper is removed.

NAOSH Safety and Health Week is Just Around the Corner!
North American Occupational Safety and Health (NAOSH) Week takes place May 7-13, 2017. NAOSH Safety and Health Week was first launched in 1997 through an agreement between Canada, the United States, and Mexico. The responsibility and management of NAOSH Week continues under the Canadian Society of Safety Engineers (CSSE). In 2007, the Board of Directors of the CSSE approved the creation of "Occupational Safety and Health Professional (OSHP) Day," which is celebrated on Wednesday of NAOSH Week.
The purpose of the week is to increase understanding of the benefits of investment in occupational safety and health, raise awareness of the role and contribution of safety and health professionals, and reduce workplace injuries and illness by encouraging new safety and health activities and interest in NAOSH Week. The purpose of OSHP Day is to honor occupational safety, health, and environmental professionals who have dedicated their lives to protecting people, property, and the environment.
NAOSH Week presents an opportunity to focus, reinforce, and strengthen commitment to occupational safety and health. Participation and involvement in NAOSH Week has been shown to:
- Improve attitudes towards safety
- Increase understanding of the importance of occupational safety and health
- Foster a safety-minded culture
- Increase cooperation
- Assist in team building and improve communication between employees, safety committees and safety professionals
Additional information can be found at http://naosh.ca/english/.

Making applesauce at home is an easy and inexpensive way to have this delicious condiment at hand whenever you need it. Prepare the apples and lemon first, before adding all of the ingredients to a pot, and then cooking the mixture until the apples are tender. Mash or puree the apples until they reach your desired consistency, and then your applesauce is ready to use and enjoy!
- 3 lb (1.4 kg) of apples
- 2 strips of lemon peel
- 3 tbsp (44 ml) of lemon juice
- ½ tsp (1.15 g) of cinnamon
- ½ cup (99 g) of white sugar
- 1 cup (250 ml) of water
- ½ tsp (2.5 g) of salt
Makes 4 cups of applesauce
Part 1 of 3:
Chopping the Apples and Peeling the Lemon
1Peel the apples with a vegetable peeler. Work your way down from the top of the apple towards the bottom, going around the circular shape. Remove a thin layer of peel.[1]
- Alternatively, use a paring knife to remove the apple peel.
2Slice the apples into quarters. Hold each apple upright and steady on a chopping board. Use a paring knife to cut the each apple into halves. Then lay each apple half flat on the board, and slice each piece into half again to create quarters.[2]
3Core the apples using a paring knife. Rest each apple quarter flat on a wooden chopping board. Slice the corner away to remove the tough core and seeds.[3]
4Peel 2 strips of lemon zest using a vegetable peeler. Start at the top of the lemon lengthwise, and draw the peeler down towards the bottom. Only peel away at the zest, not at the flesh.[4]Advertisement
Part 2 of 3:
Cooking the Ingredients
1Place all of the ingredients into a pot. Put the apple quarters and lemon strips that you just prepared into a large pot. Then add 3 tbsp (44 ml) of lemon juice, ½ tsp (1.15 g) of cinnamon, ½ cup (99 g) of white sugar, and ½ tsp (2.5 g) of salt into the pot, alongside 1 cup (250 ml) of water.[5]
- Make sure that all of the ingredients can fit into the pot easily, with enough room to boil.
- Squeeze the lemon that you just peeled to get the lemon juice.
2Bring the ingredients to a boil. Adjust the stovetop to a high heat. Wait until the liquid begins to bubble.[6]
- Stir the ingredients occasionally with a wooden spoon as you bring it to a boil.
3Simmer the ingredients for 15-20 minutes. Reduce the heat of the stovetop, and cover the pot with the lid. Let the ingredients simmer until the apples are tender and fully cooked through. Take the pot off the stovetop once the apples are ready.[7]
- Continue to stir the ingredients occasionally as they simmer.
- To check if the apples are cooked, remove a piece from the pot and check that it is soft enough to easily slice.
4Remove the lemon peels from the pot. Mix the ingredients around to find the lemon peels. Use either a wooden spoon or tongs to take these away from the rest of the ingredients.[8]Advertisement
Part 3 of 3:
Mashing or Pureeing the Sauce
1Mash the ingredients with a potato masher to make chunky applesauce. Beat the ingredients using a potato masher. Continue mashing until there are small chunks of apple left.[9]
- You don't need to wait for the mixture to cool first before you mash it.
2Puree the ingredients to make a smooth applesauce. Use either a standing blender or a stick blender. Continue pureeing until there are no chunks of apple left.[10]
- If you are using a stick blender, you can puree the ingredients directly in the pot.
- To use a standing blender, puree the ingredients in small batches. Don't fill the blender bowl above the halfway mark, and remove the feeder cap. Cover the feeder cap hole with a kitchen towel as you blend. This is because the ingredients will be hot, so this doesn't let the pressure build up. Alternatively, wait for the mixture to cool first, and then you don't need to blend in batches.
3Store the applesauce in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Let the applesauce cool before placing it into a container. Keep the container in the refrigerator.[11]Advertisement
Community Q&A
QuestionHow do I make pear or peach sauce?Community AnswerFollow the recipe, but use peaches or pears instead of apples. Keep in mind that the cooking time for peaches might be a little less, because they are much softer than apples.
QuestionCan we use lime juice instead of lemon juice?Community AnswerYes, though keep in mind that lime might taste a little more sour, so use a bit less than directed at top.
QuestionHow long does it take to make it?Around half an hour, depending on how long you cook the apples.
QuestionDo I have to use lemon juice?QamarTop AnswererYou don't have to, but it prevents the apples from browning.
QuestionWhat if I just want to use apples?Community AnswerJust put some apples in a pot then add some juice or plain water. And then wait until it is boiling and the apples are soft. Then just put it in a blender or mash it. and there you go!
QuestionCan I use maple syrup instead of sugar?Community AnswerYes, you can.
QuestionHow much sugar or cinnamon should I add?Taste the applesauce before you add sugar and decide if you want it sweeter. If you do, add a spoonful of sugar and taste it again. Keep doing this until it tastes right. You can do the same for the cinnamon, but start with less than a spoonful.
QuestionHow can I make smoother applesauce?Community AnswerCook for more time, and/or blend it in a blender.
- Tart green apples such as Granny Smith are the best to use to make applesauce, however you can use any variety. Experiment with different types of apples to find the flavor that you prefer.[14]
- If the applesauce is too thick once you mash it, add small amounts of water at a time until it reaches your preferred consistency.[15]
- If the applesauce isn't sweet enough, add more white sugar. Alternatively, if the applesauce is too sweet, add more lemon juice.
Things You'll Need
- Vegetable peeler
- Chopping board
- Paring knife
- Large cooking pot with a lid
- Wooden spoon
- Tongs
- Potato masher, stand blender, or stick blender
- Airtight container

New Found Glory
w/ Bayside, Set Your Goals, Shai Hulud
Wed. April 15
7 p.m.
$20.50, $16.50
House Of Blues, Myrtle Beach

To get a clue about the contrasts between Florida band New Found Glory's new album Not Without a Fight, and the band's previous release, Coming Home, all that's needed is a glance at the artwork of the two.
Coming Home's photos showed the group members dressed up with jackets and suit coats looking serious and introspective. It suggested an album that presented a more mature and thoughtful New Found Glory. The artwork fit the tenor of the songs, which were less frenetic musically, and lyrically offered a more poetic approach to exploring the dynamics of relationships.
By contrast, Not Without a Fight features cover art depicting two soldiers — a man and a woman, facing off in battle. Elsewhere, photos show the band in concert, jumping on stage, and cheering. The images will be familiar to those who have seen the band's high-energy live shows or associate the band with playful, catchy punk-pop.
The choices for the artwork on the two albums are no coincidence, according to New Found Glory guitarist Chad Gilbert.
"For Coming Home, the packaging had a theme," he says. "It's a [home] stereo album, not something you drive around fast in your car listening to. With Not Without a Fight, we really, really wanted to hit home that these songs are live songs."
The new album brings back the playful energy that many associate with New Found Glory, as well as the lighter and more youthful outlook on love and relationships that had been a hallmark of the group. Gilbert says it isn't meant to be a throwback to an earlier era of the band.
With their more straight-ahead guitar rock sound, these songs give the album a nice contrast to songs that more closely fit the punkier mold of earlier work.
"Some of the songs on the new record are above any genre," Gilbert says. "Obviously, there are songs that are more like New Found Glory classics, but then there are the other songs that are more like modern rock. I think some go to new ground."
Not Without a Fight arrives at an interesting point in New Found Glory's career. Gilbert, singer Jordan Pundik, guitarist Steve Klein, bassist Ian Grushka, and drummer Cyrus Bolooki formed the band in 1997. They released two EPs and a full-length on the MCA-distributed label Drive-Thru before moving over to MCA (later absorbed by Interscope/Geffen) in 2000 for a self-titled album. That disc spawned a minor hit single in "Hit Or Miss," but it was on 2002's Sticks and Stones that they started to make major waves. It featured the modern rock hit "My Friends Over You," and surpassed the one million mark in copies sold.
2004's Catalyst failed to generate the same response, and Coming Home was a commercial disappointment.
Recent changes at Interscope/Geffen resulted in New Found Glory amicably parting ways with the label and signing to the punk-centric Epitaph label.
Gilbert says the energy of the new songs is already paying off in the live setting.
"Coming Home wasn't so much of a live album, so we didn't play too many of those songs," he says. "The songs on this record come off even more powerful live.
Once you hear them live, it will make you want to get them."

Clouds clearing over Crown Mountain, from a snowshoe trip up to Hollyburn back in April 2011
Sometimes a photo works, and sometimes it doesn't. I've taken many photos of the west face of Crown Mountain on my various hikes up to Hollyburn over the years, but most end up looking flat and boring. Until now – or at least, until April 2011 🙂 This photo was taken part way up the open slopes on the final approach to the summit, roughly at the first mini-plateau on this ascent. Crown appears over the tree tops and teases with partial views through the forest.
I found a spot with a better view and took this photo, although I was still annoyed at the presence of the foreground trees. It was only when I got home and looked at what I had taken that I liked the square crop with the four trees at the bottom of the frame acting as a border hiding the boring lower slopes of the mountain and leaving just the interesting parts of Crown visible as the clouds began to drift away.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child cast photos released
The first set of photographs featuring some cast members of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in costume has been released.
Actor Sam Clemmett has been revealed as the character Albus Severus Potter - the cursed child referred to in the title - in Charlie Gray's portraits.
It's also been announced Poppy Miller will take on the role of Ginny Potter - Harry's wife.
Previews of the play begin at London's Palace Theatre on 7 June.
The photos mark the first time Jamie Parker has been seen as Harry Potter, complete with the famous lightning-shaped scar on his forehead.
When asked about Parker's transformation, author JK Rowling said: "He simply is Harry now. There's a kind of relief in watching him, he gets it so right."
Parker said: "It's a unique gig in the sense that you have seven volumes of back story that you get to bring on with you. And we were all very keen to make sure that the first time you see Harry it just feels right."
Clemmett has previously appeared in productions of Lord of the Flies, and Wendy and Peter Pan for the Royal Shakespeare Company, as well as in TV dramas such as The Musketeers and Foyle's War.
JK Rowling said: "There's much I could say about Sam-as-Albus, but we'd be into spoiler territory so quickly I'll just say we couldn't have cast better."
Albus wears dark Hogwarts school robes in the portraits which give no hint as to which "house" he ends up in.
In the final chapter of book The Deathly Hallows, his character was fearful that the sorting hat would place him in Slytherin.
Miller's film and television credits include Line of Duty and The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, and she has also appeared on stage in Macbeth and Twelfth Night.
JK Rowling said: "I think a lot of people would like to have Poppy's Ginny for a mother. Kind and cool, exactly as I imagined her."
The Cursed Child is the eighth story in the Harry Potter series and the first official story of the franchise to be presented on stage.
The plot sees Harry Potter as a husband and father of three school-age children, with a job working for the Ministry of Magic.
The production's website states: "While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted."
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is one play presented in two parts. Both parts will run in the theatre simultaneously, split between matinee and evening performances.
More photos of the cast members in costume will be released later this week.
