Nazy’s return from America was marked by celebration and joy. Arriving like Santa Claus dragging giant bags, okay, suitcases, stuffed with acquisitions and presents, she freely dispensed joy and merriment. In spite of the gargantuan heft of her luggage, it was not possible for her to hand carry all of the gifts. Amazingly, the US Postal Service and Swiss Die Post effectively worked together to deliver a package before Nazy even arrived.
Darius was in Pakistan when this happened. Thus, I was able to secretly unpack two gargantuan flasks of Real New Hampshire Maple Syrup. I immediately hid one in the back of my closet. I filled an old (Canadian) container with a small portion of the Real stuff. I secreted the remainder far from Darius’ view. (Note: we have a very small refrigerator; the interior volume is less than the exterior size of the two Maple Syrup containers.)

The Maple Syrup that Nazy shipped from New England is Grade A Light Amber. The substitute available here is Grade D Heavy Crude. The photo makes it clear which is which.
