It's so green around here now. The torrential rains helped with that. :)
There are many things I could have blogged about in the last month....but since I'm such a backed up blogger, I'll post a few of my favorite March photos. My neighbors headed up the 2nd annual "sugaring" endeavor in our back yard. For those of you not familiar with this process, it involved gathering sap in buckets from sugar maples and boiling away the water until we were left with maple syrup. :) It takes about 40 gallons of sap to get 1 gallon of syrup. Now you know why it is so expensive!! Liquid gold!
Here are some of my photos from the sap boiling and the celebration pancake breakfast! What a gem of a neighborhood I live in! Truly blessed!
Bringing kindling for the fire....
The neighborhood children love getting in on the action!
Two years worth of pancake breakfasts! We've had pumpkin, buckwheat, buttermilk, banana, and blueberry! No Bisquick here! :)
And here are my FAVORITE photos from the group: An example of the range or "grades" of syrup we boiled. Aren't the colors spectacular!?
Enjoy your "liquid gold"! :)
