This recipe is one of my all time favorites but honey is not on the original list of ingredients. I’ve worked to get the right proportions as I needed honey to be included, not only because I knew it would work and taste fantastic, but I wanted to share the recipe with you. While it is […]
Friday Fun Facts – Ancient Bee History
The earliest form of organized beekeeping took place in ancient Egypt. With the flooding of the Nile delta plain, an area of rich silt was created and proved ideal for agricultural development.

Honey Lemon Custard & The Divine Llama

Honey Coconut Flan
I have always been a fan of “flan“. It’s the creaminess that makes me love it so much.

With scarcely any exceptions honey will crystallize sooner or later. Many of you are tempted to throw out your […]
Goat Cheese With Honey-Pepper & Fig Balsamic Drizzle
Since moving to North Carolina I’ve found more time to visit my local farmer’s markets. One of my favorite booths belongs to the “Goat Lady Dairy“. I first discovered them when visiting the Piedmont Triad Farmers Market back in the summer while here on a visit. After we completed our move I ventured out to […]
Honeyed Pecans
Hello honey! Pecans might be my favorite nut. I suppose it’s got something to do with growing up in Texas where pecan trees are abundant and spending an afternoon shelling pecans is synonymous with canning tomatoes or pickling okra. It’s time consuming but well worth it. A delightful way to spend a fall afternoon! They […]
