Making This Year’s Batch of Maple Syrup, Plus Pancakes!
When Tapping for Tree Sap, Timing is Everything
Hello Folks, Aunt Eunice here! I hope you are all doing well. The coldest harvest is now over and the ice house is full to the rafters with nice big blocks of ice. We should have plenty for our needs which is mostly for making homemade ice cream and for keeping the birch beer kegs cold. Now we are preparing for the sweetest job on the farm, maple sugaring. The farmer started tapping the maple trees about ten days ago and has been storing the sap for Maple Sugaring Day. Quiet Valley members are invited to attend and will get to sample buttermilk or buckwheat pancakes with our 2020 syrup on it. They can learn all about the process as it was done in the 19th century. It always amazes me that it takes 40 gallons of sap to get 1 gallon of syrup! No wonder it is so pricey in the stores. If you keep cooking it past the syrup stage you can eventually get maple sugar. What a wonderfully tasting sweetener.

Superior Court denies appeal filed by convicted homicide defendant Anthony Gudino
Anthony Gudino
In a recent written Opinion from the Pennsylvania Superior Court the Appeal of Anthony Gudino has been denied. Gudino was found guilty of Third Degree Murder, Endangering the Welfare of a Child, and Recklessly Endangering Another Person following a jury trial on July 15, 2019. Gudino was sentenced to 23 ½ to 47 years in state prison for the murder of his five (5) month old infant child.
Gudino’s appeal was based on the claim that there was no evidence to support that he caused the fatal injuries to the child or acted with the malice required for murder. He also challenged the denial of an involuntary manslaughter instruction to the jury.

Ice Harvesting Event, Ice Boxes & Early Food Preservation
Aunt Eunice here. I have been enjoying this snowy weather we’ve been having, but I do wish it would snow everywhere except on the roads and walkways! That sure is a lot of plowing and shoveling! It is so pretty though and looks much closer to the winters of my youth.
