Honey

The past two months, I've had a new craving for honey for some reason. Not sugar, but honey- has to be honey. Started putting it in my tea (always used to use sugar).

About 7 years ago my older daughter gave me a bag of fresh bee pollen from Cornell where she was working in the honeybee dept. I remember developing a taste for it but then thought nothing more of it when it ran out. Last week I saw a bag of raw bee pollen pellets at the health food store, I just HAD to have some and have been at my desk nibbling it every day out of the bag with a teaspoon, along with the daily honey in tea thing.
Today, DH and I walked into town to buy "goodies" at the health food store. I saw a box with a huge chunk of honeycomb and I *had* to buy it! Now I am sitting here with a spoon digging off hunks of honeycomb and eating it, spitting out the bits of wax after each bite.

What's happening to me?? Is this like the movie "The Fly"?
Help me, pleeeeezzzzbzz....

I've been addicted to honey since I was a kid. I eat some every day, usually on my toast.

Can't live without it.

lol...I can't believe I just read this. I had a huge craving for honey earlier today and attacked the lemon honey I have for tea!!

There is some honey lip balm they sell at bath and body works I picked up the other day. It's very honey smelling, I didn't care for it much though.

At this point if I got some I'd probably EAT it.


P.S. I want a biking helmet just like the one above.

I too love fresh honey. The lady who runs our computer labs at school has several active hives and sells the fresh honey every year. Everyone on staff looks forward to her harvest and buys several bottles at a time. It is so much better than what they sell at the local grocery stores. I love it on apples, toast, home made bread (she makes this too!).

Lisa, have you tried honey stingers on your rides? I haven't tried them, but I love honey too!

I'm drinking peach oolong tea with honey right now, it is SO good!

So, tell me...what is bee pollen and how do you eat it (plain, on food, in food)???
