Color does not mean anything on density. Actually the last 5 gals I made today had lighted up a lot from first 15 of the day. Nice hard freeze last night.

Incredible! I love your colors and LOVE the opposite reflection thing you achieved, with the swirling sky on one side and the wavy trees on the other. Gorgeous!

Used to love the Buckley's cafe, but not so much now. Just discovered hot rize up the same road and like them better.

If that’s how you like it then good on you! But I’d agree with the other commenter here, it’s very light, nearly looks like bud sap.
But not casting hate here, boil to your own preference and enjoy

I’ve made about 3 quarts and counting…and use the exact same glass bottles. I have two taps in one big tree and it gives me all the sap I can possibly handle without an actual evaporator. I use a turkey fryer in my garage. My syrup is very light early in the year and gets darker over the course of the season. I live at 1900 feet elevation, so mine finishes at around 216. It’s a fun hobby.

No, I'm talking about purely based upon fact. These books are not banned, if they were you wouldn't be able to buy them, so if you still want to buy them and teach it to your child you totally can.
Two: Parents and in turn tax payers have every right to provide objections to teaching practices and lessons that they find objectionable. Welcome to the public system, I think the issue people freaking out about pulling these books from libraries is that we are seeing a demonstration of what happens when you have people who are normally not involved in political or heated subjects now getting involved because it directly affects something they love and care about.
Three: Honestly, if you can't read it in a town board meeting, or a school board meeting, it likely shouldn't be in libraries targeting middle schoolers and kindergarten

Yeah, I don’t and never have used anything fancy like that. I boil by sight and how fast it’s bubbles, then pull it off to finish on the stove. Got about 12 gallons this year, hung about 50 buckets.

Mangia in Manchester has great scratch made Italian. you'll have to be patient as it typically takes a while for them to get the food out, but it's BYOB so you can chill and have a glass of wine in the meantime. the wait is worth it. I've never been disappointed there.

I’ve been boiling syrup for about 25 years, and learned from my father who boiled for his whole life… I can assure you, my syrup is not “overboiled”. Buy some “real” syrup and look at its color, that’s normal. I think it’s safer to say yours is significantly under boiled

Also went to PA. Same crowd, but NOT friends with her. We hated each other. I got married around the same time as her and remember seeing her at a few bridal shows and being astounded that someone was actually marrying her. Can confirm. She was an awful, mean person who thought very highly of herself and slept around. Let her rot.

Reply to Who do you think will win the Republican Party primaries for the 2024 Presidential Election in the state of New Hampshire? by Ok_Nefariousness_764
Republicans love strength first and foremost..
I think nicki haley might be a formiddable candidate if she comes out swinging and shows her teeth. More than the other candidates, She may be able to get inside and deal donny some embarassing body blows. Shes my darkhorse (no pun).
i think donny is due for some kind of health issue but thats a bit of a dart. He’s definitely ratcheting up the crazy more than we thought possible. Might start to see some chickens come home to roost in the way of political violence. That wont play well here. Should be interesting (sad) to watch the insults fly. He’s the favorite but a lot could go wrong.
DeSantis has the resume but he comes off as a bit of pussy. Wont play well on the debate stage. But could win nh because nh voters are less bag of hammers-y than their southern counterparts.
Sununu. He will look weak against the other swinging dicks on the stage. He might get 2nd at best in a nh primary.
Vivek has no chance because of… reasons.

This is my 1st year using a hydrometer and my syrup is significantly lighter than it has been in years past when I was just measuring temperature.

Your syrup is probably way overcooked then. I take it off when the hydrometer says it's done

Mistyped, meant to put 217. But regardless I boil it much longer in the pan, deep brown color. But again, like I said, to each their own

Hot rize is amazing, usually think of it as a breakfast spot but if it's open for dinner for sure great spot
