As the sun set we were taking our last phoâ€" tographs of the luxurious condominiums that clung to the slope of the mounâ€" tain like threeâ€"dimensional cutouts in a child‘s storyâ€" book. arrived back at our site and parked the car behind the motorhome. There was a giftâ€"wrapped package sitting on our picnic table. The package contained a pie still warm from the oven. There was a note attached. "Just in case you weren‘t able to eat something typical of the area, I decided to make you a Tarte au Sirop d‘Erable. Hope the raccoons don‘t get to it before you do." In the short time that we were away, the owner, Joan Leduc, had not only been running the campground office; she had been baking us a pie. The next morning we met Joan‘s husband Marcel, and AUTOZ REPAIR 490 Weber Street North, Waterioo Telephone: 884â€"5295 * Fax: 884â€"8641 + www.saharapool.net It was dark when we SAMAKRA PODOLS & SPAS All designed to create safe, cean comfortable water that‘s always ready when you are â€" which is probably right about now.

"This is my 87â€"yearâ€"old mother‘s recipe. It originated with her mother." Steven, her son When we asked for the recipe, Joan said it was the easiest pie in the world to make. However as the recipe was passed from generation to generation of the Leduc family, it had never been written down. Joan explained that the quantity of flour had to be three heaping soupspoons or the Your Uptown Garage Since 1978 * Brakes * Front ends * Wheel alignment * Mufflers/exhaust * Cooling systems * Tune ups * Oil, lube, service * Tire Service pie wouldn‘t turn out. She insisted that the secret to the pie‘s success was in the word "heaping". Concerned _ that _ the Leduc‘s soupspoons were probably not the same size as everyone else‘s soupâ€" spoons, and that not everyâ€" one would heap them to the same level, we formalized the flour measurement to be six level tablespoons. In this recipe, the flavour is as delicious as Madame Leduc‘s, but the texture of our pie is slightly firmer. Joan suggested that when the pie bubbled, it was done. Ours _ never _ bubbled. Perhaps the secret is in the three heaping soupspoons. There is no doubt in our minds that if the maple syrup pie had remained on our picnic table a minute longer, that night in Saint Jovite, the raccoons would have been the ones licking their lips and enjoying it, not us. Combine _ the â€" maple syrup, whipping cream and flour. Whisk until the ingreâ€" dients _ are â€" thoroughly mixed. The texture must be smooth and free of any little lumps of flour. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahfenheit. â€" Pour the mixture into the pie shell and bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes or until the pie is golden brown and no longer runny. 1 pie shell 1 cup maple syrup 1/2 cup whipping cream 6 very level tablespoons allâ€" purpose flour MAPLE SYRUP PIE (Makes 6 to 8 servings) FREE SPA SEMINAR Wed.
