A Maple Syrup Smile

It's a definition of who we are as a people, really...one of them... like hockey, the maple leaf, freedom, eh!, beer, moose, and poutine.

Maple syrup.

It's the sap of the maple tree, heated at a temperature of approximately 121 degrees for several hours...it IS the nectar of the gods...unbelievably delicious!

This was in the back yard of our school...we didn't make it to a sugar camp, so M. brought the syrup to us.

Poured onto the cold snow, it forms a taffy-like substance, and everyone got to savour this seasonal delicacy.

Until next year...
