local honey

i literally use honey at least four times a day - 1 shake, 2 coffees, 1ish hot tea.  i always buy my honey local.  raw honey has so many great health benefits: contains antibiotic properties, prevents ulcers, treats nausea, naturalizes toxins, harmonizes the liver, acts as a sedative, anti-inflammatory, etc etc.  buying local is ideal for food across the board but honey is specifically great for allergy suffers (which is not me fortunately, but i also use local honey :) ) because it mostly likely contains the same allergens you are exposed to on a daily basis.  i'm so happy that the kroger near my work carries honey from ball ground, ga - only 20 miles away.  this line- weeks works - also has several different honey "flavors" depending on the flowers that the bees frequent.  tupelo honey is pretty fragrant and splendid for bedtime tea.  i like things fairly sweet but can't stand refined sugar, so thankful for honey.
