parker pan cake syrup

[Richard Flanders]

Good on you Edgar for keeping going on the syrup program. We tapped some maple trees in Michigan when I was in college. One day we were hauling a 30gal trash barrel full of sap home to the cooker in the back of a Suburban when our driver had to brake a little abruptly at a light and the barrel tipped over in the back. What a mess! We just opened all the doors and let it pour out onto the street. A good laugh was had by all I can tell you. Birch syrup is popular up here in Alaska but it takes a LOT more sap to make a jug of syrup than it does with maple.
