The honey show at The Forks reminded me of my honey bender in July. This photo was taken at the cottage, right after spending an afternoon picking strawberries and I was on a total strawberry/honey high...or maybe it was just being in the sun too long. In any case, the neighbouring farm had just harvested ( right word?) honey and the strawberry farmer was selling it for him. I bought all of his biggest pails hoping it will last a year. My main goal is to replace white sugar with it. I love that honey doesn't go bad. Just keep it in the cupboard, and whatever you do, do NOT store it in the fridge as it will get all granular looking.

I added this site because I had never heard of Honey Launderers before, but it is not surprising either. Yikes.

Uh, that is A LOT of honey! I love the photo of you. I use agave nectar or honey instead of sugar. Even in my coffee.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like its only going to last 9 months, instead of 12. Daughter Younger uses agave nectar instead of pancake syrup. Now I feel hungry...
