Thanks for the info. We were just talking about how and when maple syrup becomes available. Have a great day and may God bless you and all you love.

I hear that Grade B Maple Syrup is closer to its natural properties. It tastes the same as the popular Grade A. I use maybe less than a teaspoon’s-worth of Grade B Maple Syrup every morning (instead of sugar) in my espresso or coffee. I cannot detect any hint of maple at all, surprisingly. Maple Syrup was mentioned on the Dr. Oz show earlier this year (2012) as a suggested sugar substitute.

If you notice a hole in the upper left-hand corner of your Farmers' Almanac, don't return it to the store! That hole isn't a defect; it's a part of history. Starting with the first edition of the Farmers' Almanac in 1818, readers used to nail holes into the corners to hang it up in their homes, barns, and outhouses (to provide both reading material and toilet paper). In 1910, the Almanac's publishers began pre-drilling holes in the corners to make it even easier for readers to keep all of that invaluable information (and paper) handy.
