Loose Parts by Dave Blazek for June 13, 2023

Tap is always better. Straight from the tree.

From a 70-year-old maple on a south-facing slope.

By the gallon, please.

“Would Monsieur care to smell the bark?”

IHOP?

Can I get my pancakes with little squares punched in them to hold the syrup?

What years do you have?

Does IHOP still have different flavored syrups?

Real maple syrup, please.

Fresh off the arch.

Could I get some imported syrup please? You know, from Canada.

I was pleased to learn a couple of years ago that Canada keeps a strategic maple syrup reserve.

the bigger decision is Vermont? …or New Hampshire?

Is syrup place I can wash my sticky hands?

It’s not just about pancakes. A shot of maple syrup in the morning coffee is heavenly. Pretty good in a latte too.

maple syrup on tap? sweet…
