Reality: Real maple syrup costs four times as much as the processed corn syrup. My kids and wallet prefer the fake stuff, but I am still a deliciousness advocate. I can appreciate Mrs. Butterworth, but will always prefer mother nature's maple syrup.
Lemonade is easy to make, it only requires three ingredients: Water, Sugar and Lemons. I knew that if I started a personal blog, I would be forced to write about food, as it's my passion. I would also write about everyday things (water), events that were totally awesome (sugar), and occasionally I would vent and rant about frustrations, irritations and things that could only be described as terrible, horrible, no-good very bad and sour (lemons.) Thus Lindsey's Lemonade was born. Drink it up.

Mrs. Butterworths
How happy were my children today when they sat down to buttermilk pancakes and "real" syrup, brought fresh from Washington, D.C. Here in Scotland most folks pour a sweet concoction called Golden Syrup on their waffles, but unlike haggis, we haven't quite taken to it. It was a wonderful morning. Ryan made the pancakes this morning and brought four syrup bottles back with him on his flight yesterday. I don't think they will last the weekend. Don't fret, however, because we still have a supply of Nutella and whipped cream that can help to fill our daily empty calorie quota.

I love maple syrup that you make from extract, so I guess that is in between the real stuff and the stuff they make with corn syrup.
