A Vermont Tradition

Maple Sugaring!
We got to see how maple syrup is made.
Sweet!

The Taft Sugarhouse.
It was cold -- and muddy.


Lizzy and Dallin in the Sugarhouse.
The steam made the place smell wonderful.


All the different colors of syrup.


Lizzy and Sam enjoying the fruits of someone else's labor.
Maple Donuts.


But Lizzy's favorite part was this beautiful lady.
The Taft Maple Farm was also a Dairy Farm.


She has been asking to go to the farm for months now.
She wouldn't hold still long enough for a decent picture.
When we were done, she asked to see the chickens.


Cousins finally learning to play together.

So in this, my second trimester of pregnancy, I've made some important decisions.

First, I prefer chocolate to fruity, chewy candies. This isn't really anything new, just accentuated with my growing bump.

Second, I prefer baked goods (i.e. cupcakes, pie, cake, dingdongs, donuts) to candy, even chocolate candy.

That is all.
