Photographed in a copy of the Cannon Falls Beacon Newspaper dated January 26th 1906. in my opinion this sounds absolutely disgusting!!!
Foley & Co. , Chicago originated Honey and Tar as a throat and lung remedy, and on account of the great merit and popularity of Foley's Honey and Tar many imitations are offered for the genuine. Ask for Foley's Honey and Tar and refuse any substitute offered as no other preparation will give the same satisfaction. It is mildly laxative. It contains no opiates and is safest for children and delicate persons. For sale by Peterson and Williams.
Here is some more info that I found on this concoction.
“The use of Foley’s cough syrup was long-lived — it was retailed during the late 1800s until the mid-1960s. In the early days, Foley’s concoction was 7 percent alcohol mixed with a special solution of pine tar and honey, terpin hydrate, sodium benzyl succinate and gum arabic. The recommended dosage for adults was one teaspoon; for children, a half teaspoon; for infants, five to 10 drops, according to the directions on the label of another undated bottle. Foley’s mixture cleared the throat of phlegm and mucus, stopped the tickling, opened the air passages for easier breathing and coated inflamed surfaces with a soothing medicine, according to an advertisement published in The Evening Independent of St. Petersburg, Fla., in 1919.
Another ad in the Evening Independent boasted that Foley’s Honey and Tar was “sold everywhere,” which may be true since ads for the product can be easily found in old newspapers throughout the country. Even the Stroudsburg Daily Times carried an ad in 1889, promoting the “wonderful value” of the compound. Although newspaper ads for Foley’s Honey and Tar were common, the number grew during the flu epidemic of 1918, touting the mixture as the answer to those who were suffering.”
Clever bumble bees. Having tried the Mk1 bee feeder - a milkbottle top with some foam stuck on top of a cane with honey/sugar syrup in it. I've been thinking of how to overcome the inevitable problem that ants eventually find it and take it over. Well saw a small animal water feeder in the supermarket that hangs down. Stuck a couple of pieces of Velcro either side of the nozzle for grip and put some honey sugar syrup inside. Hung it up in a bush in the evening and next morning the bumble bees had it all worked out and were hanging off the nozzle feeding. I expect the ants will eventually work out how to get it but I was impressed that the bees worked it out so fast.
I discovered during breakfast that my Hungry Jack Syrup bottle has a smiley face under the lid. Yes, small things like this makes me happy!
Every year, I make some sort of food item to give as Christmas gifts. I’ve done different things: homebrewed beer; fresh breads; spice blends; but over the last few years I’ve been making different flavored syrups, and putting together labels for the bottles, shooting for the style of old “patent medicine” designs. This is this year’s bottling, an orange-cardamom syrup with vanilla. The labels should be quite readable in the full size photo. These were shot with a few small work lights on my dining room table (one light to either side of the table, with the one on the right slightly behind and the one on the left slightly in front but further away from the subject), with a small Christmas tree and a ball full of glass ornaments in the background.
The portion of the disclaimer relating to gentlemen named Paul refers to the number of camp songs my friends and I grew up with that all involve an “Uncle Paul”, who is invariably ”tiny and small” and who suffers some mishap, occasionally involving patent medicine or alcohol, and who vanishes as a result.
Ingredients
10 pounds sugar
1 1/2 c. light corn syrup
julienned zest + juice of 10 oranges, plus water to reach 10 cups of liquid
2 12 oz. cans frozen orange juice concentrate, no pulp
2 oz. cardamom seeds
10 vanilla beans, split lengthwise
1 c. dark rum
1 oz. orange extract
Directions
Macerate the zest and vanilla beans in the rum and set aside.
Combine 3 pounds of sugar, the corn syrup, and enough water to moisten the sugar in a large pot. Heat on medium-high heat without stirring, until the sugar caramelizes and turns a deep amber, swirling the pan as soon as you start to see color. Immediately add your 10 cups of fresh orange juice and water, plus the thawed orange juice concentrate. The caramel will boil and spit, stir over heat until it is completely dissolved again.
Add the macerated zest, vanilla, and rum to the pot, along with the cardamom seed. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 25 minutes.
Add the remaining sugar, then bring to a boil and cook until the syrup reaches 219°F, which will be about 66% sugar by weight and have a nice syrup consistency when cooled. Cool, strain out the solids, and bottle.
With all the sugar in the syrup, it will keep well, but should be refrigerated if not used within a few weeks.
Makes a bit more than 12 pints.
Sweet sudjukh is a kind of a dessert, that's made the following way: walnuts are glazed with a syrup made of mulberry and grape juice, flour, sugar and spices like clove, vanilla and cinnamon. The whole thing is then hanged to dry for a couple of days, and is then cut to pieces and is usually served with mixed nuts and dried fruit. It may not look very appetizing, but it smells incredibly tasty, and is very delicious.
Georgians have sudjukh too. And I assume that the syrup ingredients may differ in Armenia and Georgia. I don't know if any other countries have this dessert. I haven't seen it anywhere else. Let me know, if you have!
There is another kind of sudjukh that we have in Armenia, that's totally different from this, and is made of raw meat and spices. But that's a different story...
Thanks for your visit and have a great day!
This is an espresso shot infused with powdered ginger at the time of extraction "floated" on a maple syrup base.... yum!
The maple syrup bottle on our breakfast table blew a bubble :)
Any critique and comment is appreciated.
Rich Hines talks about the conservation work that has been done on his 33 acres of forestland in Brookston, Indiana during a visit with representatives from USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service Feb. 13, 2023. Hines used the forest for maple syrup production as well as recreation. Hines worked with NRCS through the Environmental Quality Incentives Program to implement brush management, trail improvements and a forest management plan. He also utilized the Conservation Stewardship Program’s forest songbird habitat maintenance, forest stand improvement and tree planting enhancements. (NRCS photo by Brandon O’Connor)
It is Yukon Sourdough Rendezvous time in Whitehorse. 'Rendezvous,' as most people simply refer to it, is our mid winter festival. It is when everyone gets out and shakes off whatever cabin fever has built up since the cold and snow begin to fly the previous October. In this photo, a young lady rolls traditional Maple Syrup candy on a layer of ice cold snow.
i bought two bottles of monin syrup - passionfruit & rose. they smell very good indeed! i really couldn't decide coz there were SO MANY and i wish i could buy every flavor available!
My mum brought me a glass of maple syrup a long time ago. I've been waiting for the right time to open it. And I think its today. I finally have bought pecan nuts (it was so hard to get them! I've browsed lots of shop and then I have found them in Makro. They were expensive but I have bought them because I really wanted and like them.). I have some blueberries from July in a freezer.
I made some porridge for breakfast for me. With those ingredients.
It was really good.
Now I am thinking about the maple syrup and the pecans. What to use them for? Of course, I wanna make pancakes. But do you have some favourite pie/cake/muffins or something for what you use maple syrup and pecans? Do you have some idea? Write it please, give me the inspiration. ;)

Teman serumah si X hampir putus asa dan berdarah lubang qubul dan dubul untuk melabur kerana rumah pelaburan yg selama ini selamat bertukar menjadi suatu kawasan berpuaka.
