Looks like just to the north of us will be getting snow and ice, we are right on the edge but even if we get snow the ground is too warm for it to stick. Calling for wind and a lot of rain. Tomorrow morning calling for 28 "Oh No Mr Bill" my pear tree is in full bloom with new leaves and my blueberries are blooming. I've got a grapefruit tree in the ground with blossoms made a frame yesterday so I can cover it up with blankets. Been a crazy winter
Just cold here. We are dodging another storm, thank goodness.

They don't have coconut syrup or monk fruit listed. Interesting that raw honey has a lower glycemic index than not raw. I only buy the raw.

There have been multiple white papers on how not-raw honey is basically just corn syrup mixed with honey. There's a documentary about honey sourcing internationally, and it seems that unless you're buying ethically sourced raw honey that can be traced, you are likely getting the corn syrup mix even if it is labeled "raw honey"

Same with maple syrup, for what it's worth. Most of that is corn syrup too, but at least it's usually labeled that way on the bottles.

I get my raw honey from my local farm market and my inlaws pick up maple syrup from their friends in Vermont who make it themselves. Both are blue ribbon winners at their respective fairs:inlove:

Child swap question- do both people need FPs for the same attraction?

Example, my mom takes niece on a ride while everyone else is doing one that niece is not tall enough for. Can my mom then ride the ‘big ride’ with another grandkid?

I buy local from a beekeeper. I know that also if you buy from stores the honey should be organic and the country of origin should be Brazil.
