Sweet Amber Maple Syrup

We are at it again.
We are in the process of setting up for another sweet spring.
The maple trees are being tapped as I make this entry so I cannot
stay with you long. There is maple syrup to dream about.

There is a Dark Chocolate Cake in the oven, (sorry Sherry, wish you could be here for a hunk with Peanut Butter Frosting).
Coffee's due to perk,
And Pork Chops to brown and set in the slow cooker
with potatoes and carrots, for supper.
By 5 p.m., the guys will be hungry and ready to retire for the day.

Well, Maybe.

Until next time ;-)
a wink and a smile and
I'm on my way to the woods.
Break time is arriving fast.
You're welcome to come along for the ride.

You already have the fixings for Sonya's 'Knock you nekked brownies', That one I am waiting for, of course the curtains will be drawn. That one I am waiting on! hahahaha

This all makes me hungry. Maple syrup is a treat in my area. I love to cook with it also. It looks pretty all put up in the mason jar. Blessings!

Gorgeous Maple Syrup- It would be such amazing thing to have maple trees close up to gather the syrup. Many years ago I went to a cabin a sucre( sugar cabin in Quebec) where the sugar was being boiled from the trees- We had it over the snow- it was so yummy- makes my mouth water just thinking about it
Have a great week- sounds like you are cooking up some wonderful things in your kitchen.
Regards,
Anna

Learning how to tap trees and do this is on my bucket list. Hope you have a great season.

Maple has to be my all-around favorite kind of syrup! Thanks for the dreams. I'll have another waffle, please, and pass the peanut butter!

HI Dar, It's great to hear from you... I know how busy you are.. We have taken 3 trips since Feb. 13.... SO--we are staying busy also. How's Mel??? Haven't heard from her lately either.

Have you had a fairly mild winter up there? We have had almost no winter here. They say the BUGS will be horrible this summer due to all of the rain we have had --and due to the fact that winter didn't kill them all out. Yuk.....

Wish I could taste some REAL Maple Syrup sometime. I know that yours has to be fabulous.

Hugs,
Betsy
