LOL if hubby refuses to toss spoiled syrup, Lesley, make sure he eats it ;-)
Also planning on pulling spiles by Friday at latest. Kid sis coming for a weekend. We only see each other 1x a year for a few hours, normally. But this time she is free of her 3 kids and hubby, so want to spend quality time with her and not fretting over syrup!
