Honey For Your Honey

Honey For Your Honey
Can you believe it's almost Valentine's Day? It's a time to shower your love with sweetness and show how much you care. Josh and I are huge on holidays. We love giving gifts and spoiling each other. I've given Josh a variety of Valentine's Day presents over the years, but they always involve something sweet. Screen Shot 2015-02-02 at 10.04.24 PM This year they'll involve one of the sweetest things in the world: honey! I took this picture at FitBloggin' last year when I was in Savannah visiting The Savannah Bee Company store/tasting room. I immediately fell in love with the products and picked up little treats for my FitBloggin' roommates and a whole bunch of souvenirs for Josh. And by souvenirs for Josh I mean a pantry full of honey and honey products that I could gift him but then eat and use half of. ;) I love honey. Josh and I attended a seminar two years ago where we learned about the importance of honey and honeybees in our ecosystem. It blew my mind and opened me up to a world of science I was previously completely unaware of. We also learned about the many health benefits of raw honey and honeycomb.  It made me love honey even more and I become a huge honey advocate. It's my sweetener of choice. :D image Savannah Bee Company recently reached out to me to see if I wanted to share their Valentine's Day gift boxes with you. Um, heck yes I do! These gift boxes are one awesome Valentine's Day present. If you think your special someone would want some honey this Valentine's Day make sure to order by Friday, February 6th for guaranteed Valentine's Day delivery. Savannah Bee Company was so kind to not only send me two gift boxes to talk about on here with you, they also are providing a lucky winner their choice of the two featured gift boxes. They offer many gift boxes, but the two I'm talking about today are my personal favorites. image Gift Box Number 1 is The Honey Caramel Delight gift set. It includes the following:
  • 12oz jar of Savannah Bee Winter White honey
  • 12oz jar of Savannah Bee Tupelo honey
  • 3.35oz jar of Adam Turoni's Honey Caramel Sauce
  • Adam Turoni Dark Chocolate Sourwood Caramels
Adam Turoni is a renowned Savannah chocolatier. Savannah Bee Company partners with him to make a delicious line of chocolates and desserts. The honey caramel sauce is so good I bought two jars when I was at FitBloggin'. Josh and I ate it straight out of the container with spoons. Did you know honey can tell you a lot about the region it came from? Nebraska honey has a lot molasses undertones to it, which is totally different than the honey I grew up eating in Pennsylvania. Georgia honey is completely different from both of them. I absolutely love them all. image Gift Box Number 2 is My Sweet and Sensitive Valentine Gift Set. It includes the following:
  • Lemongrass Spearmint Honey and Royal Jelly Shampoo (8oz)
  • Lemongrass Spearmint Honey and Propolis Conditioner (8oz)
  • Lemongrass Spearmint Honey Body Lotion (8oz)
  • Sensitive Skin Royal Jelly Body Butter (6.7oz)
  • Slice of dark chocolate covered Wildflower honeycomb
I love this gift box because it shows the many applications of honey. I picked up the Royal Jelly Body Butter when I was in Savannah after learning about all of its uses. Josh and I used it all summer for sunburns and bug bites. It also smells divine. The thing I can't stress enough about this honey is the quality. I found this interview online where Whole Foods interviewed Ted Dennard about how and why he started The Savannah Bee Company. His passion is evident. After eating and appreciating good honey I'm hooked. It tastes so much better than those honey bears you get in the grocery store that have ten different kinds of honey mixed in.
