You're making me awfully jealous of Ruth!<br />I was raised on the fake stuff, but I was in New Hampshire about 15 years ago and got a tour from a syrup maker: I had had no idea the process was so time-consuming and labor-intensive. Since that day, I use nothing but the real thing.laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999450626008299190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211231099914483269.post-75601265313124017752010-02-28T10:50:53.867-05:002010-02-28T10:50:53.867-05:00Lanny: Aren't waffles harder to make?

I can't imagine the time it took to gather all the sap from buckets! However, with just a few spiles out, it feels rather nostalgic to dump buckets into pails into evaporator pans into cute little bottles.Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831577769797947426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211231099914483269.post-70873934079396776642010-02-28T07:39:31.611-05:002010-02-28T07:39:31.611-05:00Wow, two song references in one post!

Super! <br /><br />We took a drive yesterday to our local maple syrup farms and they haven't even tapped the trees yet. I was very disappointed.
