Hi Shawn,

 RH> We buy it up in VT, and usually get some sugar to use in the kitchen as
 RH> well. This year I got a couple of small cook books put out by the
 RH> family that owns the place also. Looks like some interesting things to
 RH> try.

 SH> That's always fun.  I'll ask my uncle if he has any sugar too, if I
 SH> get a chance this year.  We're not a very close family.

It might be a catalyst to get you closer together. Ask about how he got
started sugaring, favorite dishes (recipies, if possible) that use
maple, etc.

(lobster rolls)
 RH> That's decadent eating! We split one a few weeks ago, as with
 RH> everything else, the cost has gone up a good bit over the past year. It
 RH> might be the only roll we have this year but the memories of the taste
 RH> linger.

 SH> Exactly.  I don't mind a smaller / half portion of something that I
 SH> really enjoy.

I know, 10 years ago I was told I'd be on insulin the rest of my life
(kicked it after 9.5 months and dietary changes). Initially I thought
that much smaller servings of my favorite things were too small to be
worth eating but then I adjusted to the smaller size portion and have
been content with it. Changing my eating habits to avoid needing the
needle has been worth it, even with smaller (better for me) portions.

....  It works!  Now, if only I could remember what I did.
