Tapping trees

Today we tapped maple trees and I think its going to be a good week for sap.  It is supposed to be over 40 degrees all week.  We tapped 20 buckets and I should be boiling by this Friday.  I will post more soon.

I Can Feel The Days Getting Longer

I can feel the days getting longer.  In less than a week it will be time to tap maple trees.  It seems like all my food projects are merging into one.  I still have sausage to make, wine to bottle, bread to make, and on top of it all school.  I hardly know when I am going to find time to do maple syrup.  Plus I would also like to find time to Blacksmith, Read, and just relax.
