Spring is my favorite season even though I like summer too because I get to take a break from work. My favorite thing about spring is orange blossoms and geraniums.
Nisrine - we don't get any orange blossoms here :(
Foodperestroika - nope. The sugar content of birch sap isn't high enough, and the same goes for maple sap we get here. The maples used for collecting sap are different in the US/Canada.
Joey - we're siphoning birch sap - an utterly delicious and beneficial liquid that tastes like a slightly flavoured delicious water. You'd love it :)
Voisula - sai jah. Me panime pühapäeval juba punni uuesti ette, et puukest mitte liialt koormata. Järgmisel aastal jälle!
Katrina - it's birch alright :) See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birch (our "kased": Arukask (Betula pendula), Sookask (Betula pubescens), Vaevakask (Betula nana). Beech is "pöök" in Estonian.
Awwww... I love birch sap but I haven't had the real thing for years... they sell something bottled and bland-flavoured here that I don't recognize as birch sap }:-(

EXACTLY what I was thinking today :)

Just curious, do people in Estonia sometimes make syrup out of the sap?
Happy spring Pille! It's summer over here :) Oooh! What are you siphoning from the tree? Sorry, clueless here!
Oo, Eestis saab juba kasemahla. See toob tôelise kevade.
is this picture for real??:) I've always wondered about getting your own beech juice (it is beech in English, isn't it? I had doubts all the sudden!)
Mari-Liis, lõpuks jah :)
Siri - it was a loooooong winter, wasn't it!?
