Finally got around to using this.  I live in an area that is not prone to maple flavored anything and I am particularly fond of maple glazed donuts.   The recipe is 1/2 cup of maple syrup, 1 cup of powdered sugar and 1/4 cup of butter.  I did this the first time and was not thrilled with how "maply" the result was.  Melt the butter in the syrup on a low heat and then whisk in the powered sugar and extract.  Let the resultant mixture set and then dip your donuts.  Let them set and dip them again.  The second time I did the same and added a 1/2 teaspoon of this maple extract.  Viola! Delicious and very maple centric.  I used plain sour cream donuts and got accolades from grandkids and wife.  

About the Product
  • OliveNation pure maple extract is made by distilling the pure maple essence, aroma and flavor into a concentrated form, which is then dissolved in an alcohol base.
  • This gives you a more concentrated maple flavor than using maple syrup.
  • Maple Extract is especially delicious in desserts like Bourbon Pecan Pie, sugar cookies, and in homemade maple ice cream.
  • You can also use it to add flavor to oatmeal, baked beans, Butternut Squash Wedges with Maple Butter, as well as in candy, beverages or anywhere you want to add a hint of maple flavor.
  • Try using maple extract instead of vanilla extract to enhance your favorite recipes with a rich maple flavor and aroma.

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You
