Hickory Hill Farm Hickory Syrup |
I spent yesterday in the kitchen making hickory syrup! It takes all day for me to brew and bottle a batch, so I made a larger batch this time. In the end, there were a total of fourteen 12 ounce bottles. I shot this photograph just before it got dark here (just before 5 pm).
I have an order shipping today to my BFF in Georgia for her and her husband's bed and breakfast operation. She uses it to create a lovely granola. She and her two sisters developed the recipe, which I've yet to taste. I'll have to bring that up with her!
I'm going to label, cello-seal, wrap and package her order to ship, and once it's in the mailbox, I'm going to sit down and start working on my bluebird until about an hour before I have to go in for my short Friday shift at work. I consider it a little needle dancing "practice" before I spend the weekend stitching on it.
Today marks one year that we've been without you. One year since you went home to be with the Lord. One year that your girls have had to learn about life without your daily chats, frequent visits, and warm hugs. I'm putting this out into the universe, knowing you'll already know these things. All of us miss you deeply. Until we see you again, rest well, my sister. We love you.
