MAPLE syrup OVERDOSE ...


If you COULD smell our house right now ... 
You'd think you have DIED of MAPLE sugar OVEDOSE and gone straight to CANDY heaven ... 

After HOURS and HOURS of boiling the sap in four LARGE pots on the STOVE, I just bottled the first batch of PRECIOUS spring ELIXIR of the year ... 

The Algonguins called it SINZIBUCKWUD or if you prefer TAPPED from the WOOD ... We call it SIROP D'ÉRABLE in Québec ... HOMEMADE maple SYRUP ! 

A LITTLE miracle and a GRAND pleasure offered to us as an EARLY spring gift by MOTHER NATURE ...

SPRING juice CHEERS !


SANTÉ ! Cheers ! SALUD !


NOTHING beats a sip of maple SAP tapped STRAIGHT from the tree and SIPPED with pleasure on a SUNNY day in the LAST crystal glass I INHERITED from my GRAND-MAMAN Alice ... 

SPRING juice ! 

This is WHAT my SPAWN used to call it when he was a little BOY ...
