Springtime Honey~

     Honey is an amazing treat in the Springtime!  It is one of the only foods made by an animal, bees, for human beings.  It is a delicious sweet treat that has antimicrobial properties.  It is especially helpful to have a teaspoon of local honey a day when allergies are awakening.  To help with a cold make a tea with honey, cinnamon and ginger, let it steep for 3-5 minutes, best to boil the herbs together and then add honey.  Making a flavored honey with orange zest and rosemary is delicious!  Local is best, and from a healthy farm with beautiful flowers!  
Enjoy.
