All Day Sugaring

So what do you do when it's 3:30 a.m. and you can't sleep because you're worried that you won't get through the 40+ gallons of sap in one sugaring session. Why you get up of course, and start boiling the sap.

What a day it has been! And it's not quite over. The unbelievably delicious half-syrup is finishing on the stove. It is all I can do to keep the girls and myself from drinking it as is. My middle one says it's the best ever, and I'd have to agree.

We'll get a tad over a half gallon when it's all said and done.

The girls are looking for pancakes from breakfast.

Woo-hoo! Congrats.

I don't know how you do everything you do. *sigh*
