So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Get Your Maple Syrup Fix at Vermont Fairs

By Rick Amorey

For many people, breakfast is just incomplete without maple syrup. It has no doubt become a staple for the people's first meal for each day. Who eats pancakes and waffles without maple syrup? It just isn't done.

So it doesn't come as a surprise that there is an annual Maple Festival held here in the state of Vermont. Every year, people from all over gather to partake in the many events that are held in the show. Of course, there is an abundance of many types of food that uses maple syrup as an ingredient. You may even chance upon the maple cookbook, which will give you tips on how to use maple syrup properly.

And of course, there are also craft shows around. Maple syrup is a nice way to start anyone's day, so people are naturally going to be inspired to create something for the duration of the day. There are even some who use maple syrup in their crafted items. This requires a thorough understanding of maple syrup, such that it won't be flycatcher art.

For the rest of us, the Maple Festival right here in Vermont is the perfect opportunity to sell our crafts. Crafts that could fit your dining room, they were made with maple syrup in mind. Antique designed crafts, in particular, sell well. Just don't make the mistake of labeling your brand new crafts as antiques. Trust me, it's been done.

Are maple syrup and waffles an important part of your breakfast? Are you a fan of handcrafted items? If so, then you'll definitely love the hustle and bustle of Vermont craft fairs! If you have talent, then maybe you can even go there as one of the craftspeople and get a chance to display your works. So what're you waiting for?
