Went to Baseball Opening Day this morning at the VFW. Alonzo fireworks and all. Then to the Schaghticoke Fairgrounds Craft Show because I wanted to buy pure maple syrup for my youngest child. He had told me that his pure maple syrup, which is the only kind he uses, none of that pseudo Aunt Jemimah stuff, had mold on it, which he skimmed off, and then boiled the syrup for future use. I was appalled, thought he was doomed to some kind of mold sickness or other. I told him to throw it out, and I would buy him some new syrup. So I found the Pure Maple Syrup stand at the craft-y-ish fair, which was run by a very nice man from Hoosick Falls. He told me that skimming off the mold was very safe and acceptable, and that it's even written on the packaging. I bought a tin of the syrup anyway.
When I got home, there was an email telling me of his arrival plans for May. My reaction: is this really happening?
