Wishing you a fruitful spring ... and someday ... someday ... we'll have a taste test ~ Vermont vs. Michigan maple syrup :)joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09569378877717221045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-61976591134943220382009-04-10T07:50:00.000-04:002009-04-10T07:50:00.000-04:00Hello Joey;My "after the winter" weight loss progr...Hello Joey;<BR/><BR/>My "after the winter" weight loss program isn't going all that well so I have been avoiding The Village Voice since it makes me head to the store for ingredients to follow up on your latest recipes. Just the same I am going to try this one and also the Classic Maple Salad. <BR/><BR/>At our nursery we take care of lunch for whomever is working that day. Some days things just don't work well and we send someone to the store for sandwiches or salads but usually we take care of things and salads are quite common. We have a special salad dressing that no one has complained about seeing yet but I've been looking for new options. I admit I am loyal to Vermont maple syrup from my days of lifting buckets off trees and carrying them to horse drawn sleds. Our sugaring season has been incredible this year and with all the new technology, we're still making good quality syrup.<BR/><BR/>I've been bad about our two blogs while renewing our website. Give it a look at http://vermontflowerfarm.com when you get a chance.<BR/><BR/>George Africa<BR/>The Vermont Gardener<BR/>http://thevermontgardener.blogspot.comvermontflowerfarm@outlook.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03923885023694355932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-48352179786463277472009-03-24T16:25:00.000-04:002009-03-24T16:25:00.000-04:00Hi there, Joey!

Pansies have been a favorite since I was a child. I include them extensively in my garden with thoughts of a very special person in my life.<BR/><BR/>You must be reading my mind, Anna! Friday is always a seafood/fish entry and tomorrow's is salmon with sun-dried tomatoes! How about one of these 2 family favorite pasta salads (key name of recipe in my search blog).
