like many blossomy things, including our peach tree, the violets have bloomed about a month early which is far too early for these parts and i suspect they’ll quickly succumb to an upcoming cold night before i get a chance to harvest.
which all means once again another year has passed without making violet syrup.
i think this might mark the sixth year of almost making the syrup. at this point, maybe i should just wait until an even decade passes.
one of these years i’m actually going to make the violet syrup that i’ve been meaning to make before cultural norms and The Lawn Police require me to mow down the Viola odorata.
but this is not that year.
