I've recently (about 6 months ago) gone off refined sugar completely and one of the things I've really enjoyed is 100% pure Maple Syrup - it is the best way to replace refined sugar!! Loved your pictures and look forward to perusing your blog a bit more.

I grew up in Maple Syrup country, but I have lived a thousand miles away from it for my entire adult life. You are so right about the *blech* they sell in stores and try to pass off as maple syrup. <br /><br />I also loved your post below. It is actually the "draw" for me because you were shouted out on both "At the Picket Fence" and Amy's Girl Talk on "All Things Home". So very glad I clicked and came. I would love to follow you.

Nothing does sp...Good morning my beautiful friend!<br /><br />Nothing does speak more CANADIAN culinary culture than maple syrup! When I lived in Massachusetts, Vermont maple syrup was the best, ever. It makes for a delicious "Indian Pudding", a lovely dish served up at Thanksgiving and that requires about eight hours of baking. Maple syrup and molasses makes the flavors so distinct.<br /><br />I suppose your weather is still on the chilly side, like chez nous. But we will soon be getting a glimpse of the daffodils and hyacinth that will soon poke through the snow.<br /><br />Hugs to you sweet Sylvia!

It is a family tradition to visit many times in the Spring. Nothing finer than real maple syrup.

Kings Landing Historical Settlement is holding it's second Sugar Bush Weekend too but I think I'd like to go to a real camp as it's been quite a few years since we have. Your post with it's pictures show what a sugar bush camp is like. I have never heard of Maple Tea before. Is it actually maple flavoured tea? Thanks for this post!
