Sugarin'

One of the perks of living through a Canadian winter is the relief of a Canadian spring. And the best part of spring in my corner of the world is the sugar season.

My sister Lauren and I tapped two of her trees today to see if we can get any late season sap.

We don't want too much, or it becomes a chore. Just a litre or two.
The sun was shining and the sap started to run right away.
Even Wyatt was excited.
Actually, he's always excited.
Let's hope the sun holds out the rest of the day and the trees give us a yummy treat!
