1. I spent 2 fabulous days of the Easter weekend at Gay and Paul's farm house in Arden.
    Helping out with the maple syrup making! 

    Heaven on earth.

    Lots of time was spent tending the boiling sap in the converted chicken coup. Don't be fooled at the shabby chic-ness…. it's pretty high tech at Maple Syrup Inc headquarters!

    Just another day at the office!!

    MMMMmmolassus-y good!

    Bird books and binos (binoculars) at the ready.

  2. Happy Easter Everybody!

    Canadians love Easter. It's the first holiday of Spring.

    They also love the traditional Easter egg from Laura Secord.
    Oooey gooey goodness.

    Laura Secord was, and is, a celebrated historical heroine who helped win the War of 1812!!
    Yup.

    Happy Spring!
