Hey there, hi there, ho there folks.
Though it may be Winter by the calendar, it is truly starting to feel Springtime here in the Green Mountains. I welcomed the warm winds with a bright spot o' gingham last weekend, when I was still at home on March Holiday.

One of the best parts of March is MAPLE SUGARING!!!
Seeing the curls of smoke from all the little sugar houses is the surest sign of Spring in Vermont. How I love hearing the drip-drop of sweet sap in little tin buckets as I walk along the roads. And best of all is tasting that fresh-boiled maple syrup on a stack of pancakes, mmm. We've had an unusually mild winter, so I couldn't indulge in my favorite treat of sugar on snow this year, but you can bet I'll be having some sugar on vanilla ice cream this weekend ;)
Well, dear readers, I hope the weather is just as beautiful wherever you are.

How lovely! I love your dress, and I'm getting so excited for spring. Oh how wonderful, my aunt and uncle used to bring us maple syrup from Ohio every year, best thing ever.

Good pictures!!! i grew up on a farm but we're in kansas so... yeah, not too many trees here! maybe someday i'll get to tap the trees!!! btw how do you get so much volume in your hair? love the boots!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Beth! And my hair is just extremely thick. It's actually quite annoying, but it holds curls nicely so I can't complain.
DeleteYou look awesome! I have a gingham skirt like your dress. But I wish it were a dress. It's even the same color. Fresh maple syrup is the best! I had it sometimes in PA.
