Honey

I have always liked honey... I even like it on my pizza (try it! it's good!). So I love that Chuck on Pushing Daisies is a beekeeper and I really loved this season's first episode where she goes to work undercover at Betty's Bees.

Does this show have the best set design ever? I think so.

A bit overly excited by the Pushing Daisies bee episode, I felt compelled to buy two bees wax candles at the farmer's market. They are supposed to burn for 11 hours.

I also got a little jar of raw honey. It's supposed to taste better and some say it reduces the symptoms of hay fever.

Bee keepers have a good sense of humor.

  4. Okay, I'm curious: exactly what kind of pizza do you put honey on? I love honey and I love pizza, but I can't imagine combining the two!

  5. sharly - I have read it... just missed the movie at the Toronto Film Festival

    lisa-marie - any kind of pizza! Cheese or pepperoni! The sweetness with the tang of the tomato sauce and the saltiness of the cheese... so good. Really!!!

  6. I was also going to ask what kind of pizza. It sounds good. I dip french fries in honey and LOVE it.

  7. I love Pushing Daisies so much! My dad completely believes in honey for hayfever but it needs to be local bees!

  8. The hay fever thing is totally true. We give a spoonful of LOCAL honey to our 2-year-old during allergy season. Keeps her snot free. Which is great, since Benadryl makes her angry and agressive!
