Strawberry season isn’t over in North Carolina, yet. It is nearing the end quickly, sadly. Strawberry season lasts for a short period of time and I love to go to the farms and gather or buy already picked fresh berries. The deal is, once you get them home they don’t last long. A couple of […]
OIL & HONEY EDITION Back in January with the new year I, not unlike many of you, thought about what changes to make in the new year. I wrote a post about diversifying The Orange Bee, but clearly wasn’t sure how I would go about that. Hundreds of ideas were swimming around in my head…but as […]
Tonight I am teaching a “honey” cooking class at the Savory Spice Shop in Greensboro. I cannot wait to share this recipe for Honey Lemon Custard. This recipe is one of the easiest and most delectable desserts I can share with the class and you. I love it so much I’d like to take a […]

“Unique among all God’s creatures, only the honeybee improves the environment and preys not on any other species.” ~ Royden Brown Did you know that the sweet honey bee is the only insect that produces food consumed by man? Now that spring weather has finally arrived in most of the U.S. fruit orchards are beginning […]
It’s hotter than “blue blazes” in Texas, already! The heat and humidity make me want to eat lighter meals with lots of fruits and veggies. The blueberries at Saturday’s farmers market looked plump and juicy so I brought home a basket for snacking and to put in this healthy yet yummy salad. Low in calories, […]
