Sap collection buckets hang from a pair of maple trees on a foggy morning in mid-March. It's maple syrup season once again, a sure sign of spring.
The side door to Duff's Sugar House at Fair Lawn Farm. The owner gave a talk and demonstration of maple syrup production inside the sugar house while I was there. Located near Monterey in Highland County, Virginia.

What sane person wants to pour a beer and then sit and watch it without tasting it immediately? Having received these bottles at Christmas (remember that?) on the condition that I must drink both at the same time, photographing the grand opening was made doubly difficult. I'm not sure if the donor intended this as some kind of blind tasting event, where I should record notes and report on my findings, but the Finnish language labels gave little clue as to what I was consuming. As my wife was intrigued by the ceremony I passed one of the glasses to her before it touched my lips and diplomatically afforded her a small sip to see what she thought of it. I watched in horror, as with several gulps, a significant quantity of one glass disappeared in a second or two. "By eck," she reported, "I like that!"
So what do we have here? Two Finnish beers, both 7.2%, Sinebrychoff & Brooklyn Brewery TWO TREE PORTER and Sinebrychoff's PORTER. Both are very dark beers, almost black and both tasted like they were well roasted, but the Two Tree had something extra in its flavour. Only searching frantically amongst the jumble of words written in Finnish on the back label did I find the words in English, Maple Syrup, and Spruce Sprout Extract. And then I spotted the maple leaf design on the front label too. Ahhh, so that's it. The TWO TREES has both maple and spruce tree ingredients whereas the PORTER had barley and hops. My wife liked the Two Trees, which is why she took several big gulps before I could grab the glass back out of her hands. Thankfully, having seen what she did to the first, I didn't let her try the Porter. That one, I preferred. And not just because there was more to drink.

Brian got the Hello Kitty Waffle Maker for his birthday several years ago. We don't have waffles often, but when we do, they're Hello Kitty!
Waffles made from scratch.

I should explain, that we don't all find the same things amusing. My family love black humour and this kind of comment has us laughing ..... (I know)...... a lot (I know)!

During my photo walk at the St. Lawrence Market, I saw this man carrying about 3 bottles of maple syrup. The sheer amount of maple syrup makes him stand out from the rest of the crowd, and his crazy dishevelled hair adds even more character. Do you have any constructive criticism?
At Brown Sugar Kitchen.
This was the first amazing meal of many during my US trip. So much good food was consumed, I put on 5kg/11lbs in three weeks. GINORMOUS!!
The making of maple syrup has a long history in Wisconsin beginning with native Americans. This old sugar shack is decorated with historic farm tools and still retains some of its bright red paint. I love the rustic charm of this simple structure on the back roads of Price County near Ogema, WI 1/31/2021
