    About a year ago, I decided that I wanted to cut out sugar. I switched to honey in my tea. I love it. I won't go back to sugar. I like that it is more natural and better for me. I need to remember to use it in the winter for coughs and sore throat.

    Coincidentally, I made a honey-mustard spread for my salmon just last night. It was delicious. I would love to use it in more recipes, but I don't have any other ideas. I would love some more (easy) recipes - I love honey!

    I love honey. When I was in Mexico, my husband would bring it fresh from going honey hunting. Its delicous with the wax. Its also great for home-remedies and as a sweetener
