Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is yellow day at Color my World Daily and of course we will know the answer to yesterday’s question: what was the object in my picture….
So the answer is : Maple syrup spigot ! Or Maple syrup tap.
The metal tube is tapped into a taphole to carry the sap from the tree to a bucket or hooked directly into the sap tubing. And then you have maple syrup ;-) ! Of course the fabrication process is a little bit more complex than that !!! If you are interested to know more, dont ask me (I have no idea how to make Maple syrup, I just love to eat it !!) but here is a video : www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZj_4-iqwlI
First of all : I was amazed how many people knew the answer !! But how ??? LOL When I first found my « mysterious object » I was at the sugar shack (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar_shack) with my coworkers… it took me several days and my husband to figure out that the object I found was, in fact, Maple syrup spigot.
Second point: thank you so much my friends for all the awesome, funny, clever and cool comments I got !! It is always a pleasure reading your kind words !! Your participation and support are highly appreciated !!
See you later my friends ! I wish you all an amazing day !
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !!
We have a favorite pancake recipe that we use that can be found on allrecipes.com allrecipes.com/recipe/162760/fluffy-pancakes/. Sunday mornings are always a leisurely time with a big breakfast. My husband and daughter made a double batch of these pancakes this morning and were very patient with me while a grabbed a few quick compositions. We also had scrambled eggs, and roasted veggies too. Enjoy your day!
Syrup is a popular drink that has been consumed for centuries. Its history dates back to ancient times, when it was used as a sweetener and medicine.
Steam rises from huge wood-fired pans of boiling sugar-maple sap behind Ronnie Moyers, owner of Laurel Fork Sapsuckers, a sugar camp in Highland County, Va., near the West Virginia state line. Moyers and his family tap more than 1,400 sugar maples each year; each 60 gallons of syrup collected yields but one gallon of maple syrup. ©2021 John M. Hudson | jmhudson1.com
I must confess I’ve seen something similar to this before so I can’t really take credit for the concept. But I had spoons, syrup and waffles so just the right ingredients to rustle up a spot of sweet, sweet plagiarism.

Yup, the point of the drip of syrup! :)
The Bradley family settled on Lake Ontario in Clarkson in the early 1800s. It is now a public museum. Their estate was in the middle of a maple grove, so one of the things the family produced was maple syrup. These pails, on the outside wall of the barn, are probably newer ones (no rusty holes) and the public is invited to tap syrup in the spring, To me, the pails look like art installation, especially with the shadows and contrast with rough wood planks.

After securing our donuts in the town of Monterey Virginia we headed out into the beautiful countryside of Highland County looking for the Maple Sugar shack that we had visited almost one year ago to the day and were happy to find it. There are quite a few of these Maple Sugar making shacks around the county and many are open during the Maple Fest for visiting. These two gentleman are the same two men that were there last year. So knowledgeable in the process of making maple syrup they generally took turns talking to visitors and explaining the cooking down process but just this one time I was able to snap a shot with both of them in it. I think the one in the background with the purple hat looks like Compo on the "Last of the Summer Wine" a British Sitcom that ran from 1973 to 2010. It's very dark in the shed and the only heat is from the fires used to boil down the sap. Unfortunately for us, but happily for them, they had already sold all their Maple Syrup.
Chocolate Covered Cherries....these were my Momma's favourite candy at Christmas. Since she's been gone, I buy a box, eat one for her, and then throw the rest of them out after the holiday. They ooze pure sugar syrup creme....way too sweet.
I think there has been a shelf of old bottles just like this, in almost every living history museum I have visited in the Maritimes and each and every single time I am compelled to take at least one shot of them. Definitely one of my favourite subjects to capture.
FYI, I have no idea what Norm Syrup is or does, maybe it's a Canadian thing??
Kiev dry jam is candied fruits that are prepared in sugar syrup from fruits and vegetables, then the syrup is allowed to drain, dried, and rolled in sugar or powdered sugar. There are many varieties: pumpkin, beet, carrot, plum, pear, quince, apricot.
“Київське сухе варення
Ця скульптура присвячена традиційним київським ласощам, рецепт яких тривалий час вважався забутим, але зараз він відроджений, і туристи радо купують солодкий сувенір на згадку про наше місто.
За легендою, рецепт фруктових цукатів, які згодом назовуть "сухим київським варенням", привіз до нашого міста французький кондитер Баль'ї в середині XVII ст., коли до Києва завітала цариця Катерина II. Була зима, і Баль'ї нібито впав, зламав ногу і пролежав, нудьгуючи, декілька місяців. За цей час він і вигадав рецепт того самого варення, і подарував його родині подільських купців Балабух, яка дбала про кондитера весь час, поки той хворів.
Насправді традиція виготовлення сиропів, варення і цукатів існувала в Києві з давніх-давен. Ще в 1386 році солодощі з Києва надсилали на весільні заходи литовського князя Ягайла.
Виготовлення «Сухого варення» - прозорих скибочок фруктів, багаторазово уварених в цукровому сиропі, підсушених і обкатаних в подрібненому цукрі або в цукровій пудрі, було покладено на промислову основу в кінці XVIII - на початку XIX століть.
Після смерті засновника фірми «Київське сухе варення» Семена Балабухи з численних спадкоємців — восьми синів і семи дочок - тільки двоє синів стали продовжувачами кондитерських традицій.
Старший спадкоємець "солодкого бізнесу" Микола Семенович Балабуха (1800-1887 рр.) прагнув нарощувати виробничі потужності і в 1834 році купив садибу з великим садом і двома нежитловими будинками на Подолі (нині вулиця Сагайдачного 27, 27-б). Там він і облаштував цехи для виробництва «сухого варення».
Згодом "Київське сухе варення" набуло шаленої популярності. Його доставляли навіть до імператорського столу в Санкт-Петербург.
Але за часів громадянської війни Балабухи покинули місто, і рецепт сухого варення був втрачений. Нарешті в 2014 році в Києві знову з'явились виробники сухого варення, які не тільки відновили старий рецепт, але й додали йому нових рис. Тепер можна поласувати цукатами не тільки з фруктів, але й з овочів”.
this time I used strawberry syrup (next time I will try with green mint syrup)

Having seen what I thought was a maple syrup bottle in Elisa's submission to the Group I went looking and found at least something similar.
Plonked it on my table-top, fixed a background, shone a desk light, grabbed my 'point & shoot' camera and took just the one photograph of the neck of the bottle.
Just a little post-processing to get rid of a mark on the bottle and a bit of the dust, and this is the result.
One from an evening meet up with my camera club at the British Sugar Factory last night, as it turns out the huge chimney which I'd been hoping to shoot only operates for a few weeks from October. You learn something new every day.

The beginning of the Syrup process. I had to try some Sorghum Syrup and I like it.
It is much like Cane Syrup, another favorite of mine.

Golden syrup - I still choose to buy a traditional tin instead of a plastic bottle. A "silver" spoon in the foreground reflects part of the design.
