is that blog-speak for “talk amongst yourselves”? When you have nothing to blog about, but want to maintain readership?
Here’s a topic: apples are tasty. Share a good apple recipe — I need lots. Go!

Baked apples!
Preheat oven to 350.
Peel the top half of a tart apple and use a knife to cut a cone out of the center, cutting the core out of the middle of the apple and leaving a well. In each well, add:
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon butter
Place in a shallow baking dish/cookie sheet/whatever and sprinkle with cinammon. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the sugar begins to caramelize and the apples are tender.
YUM.
And also we have Rachael Ray’s potato, apple and onion hash, which I have been wanting to make. If you ever find yourselves with potatoes in your pantry, now you know what to do with them.
2 large Idaho potatoes
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
2 small, soft apples, such as McIntosh, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
Salt and pepper
Prick potatoes several times each with a fork and microwave on high for 10 to 12 minutes. (Or, you know, bake for a bit.) Cool potatoes until you can handle them and chop.
Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with extra-virgin olive oil and butter. Add apples and onions and cook 5 minutes, add potatoes and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Crisp and brown the potatoes with apples and onions 5 minutes more, then serve.
1. Wash apple.
2. Enjoy.
