In reply to:a course, that's them up there in the Kingdom. we'd never say anything like that down here in civilized Central Vermont...
Harrumph....
Here's something I wrote recently on the very same subject:
Sugar On Snow
Cynthia tells me about how
in trendy Stowe in April
the sugarhouses open up
their doors, invite the public
to sugar-on-snow, a local
favorite, with a pickle on the
side to temper the sweetness,
and home-made doughnuts.
The locals, she says, break out
their fiddles and their mandolins
and everybody has a little dance.
Over in the Northeast Kingdom,
where I live, I tell her, we like
to do things differently. We have
our sugar on our snow, a pickle
and a home-made doughnut, too,
but then we crank up the boom-box
and pass around the whiskey jug.
Ron.
