That maple syrup and the bottling is a work of art sparkplug!!


Thank you, the bottling schematic is all my wife's idea. Me being me, I would've probably poured the stuff into a pint mason jar and screwed down the lid. Maybe used a magic marker to scribble on the date. I suggested that, but the look she gave me left little doubt that we would not be adopting that motif.

She designed the labels last year, and the "Bluegills and Botanicals" thing is a big hit with everyone who knows us. There is no essence of Lepomis in the syrup however. The wax dipped caps and hang tags are new this year, also her ideas. I'm just the cook.


Now I get it. If not for your wife, you would just be a bum on Skid Row grin
