§ Taste of Honey




...and you thought, by the blog post title, the song of the day was by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass? Nope, guess again......


Sugar
Ah, honey honey
You are my candy, girl
And you got me wanting you

Honey

Ah, sugar sugar
You are my candy, girl
And you got me wating you

I just can't believe the loveliness of loving you
(I just can't believe it's true)
I just can't believe the wonder of this feeling too
(I just can't believe it's true)

Ah Sugar
Ah, honey honey

You are my candy, girl
And you got me wanting you

Honey
Ah, sugar sugar
You are my candy, girl

And you got me wanting you

When I kissed you girl I knew how sweet a kiss could be
(Knew how sweet a kiss could be)
Like the summer sunshine pour your sweetness over me
(Pour your sweetness over me)

Pour a little sugar on me honey
Pour a little sugar on me baby

I'm gonna make your life so sweet
Yeah yeah yeah
Pour a little sugar on me, oh yeah
Pour a little sugar on me honey
Pour a little sugar on me baby

I'm gonna make your life so sweet
Yeah yeah yeah
Pour a little sugar on me honey

Ah Sugar
Ah, honey honey

You are my candy, girl
And you got me wanting you

Honey
Ah, sugar sugar
You are my candy, girl








Yesterday was a sad day in the world of music. A legend in his own time, Dick Clark, from the famed American Bandstand and Rockin' Eve ---passed away at the age of 82, from a massive heart attack. A day in "American Pie"...a day the music died. I remember him so well, an icon...the eternal teenager...the very first 'dancing with the stars' as we as teens watched 'em all dance on the set, and in front of the television I faithfully watched. So many music icons of the rock n roll era made their TV debuts on American Bandstand. RIP Mr. Clark. The industry will not be the same!!

The article I'm covering this week has to do with 15 'super foods'....it's a tell all item. And the background and supposedly truthful research is at hand for the hardy, low fat and energizing foods to consume. Altho, agreement here is far from reality. I'm going to just list the foods that were in the article along with a bit of info shared. And then, let you decide to read further or shun it all off, at least partly, as rubbish....





  1. Agave-Derived from the same plant used to make tequila, agave syrup has generated lots of buzz recently. Also known as agave nectar, it has a deep, rich flavor that is slightly sweeter than honey.
  2. Artisan Multigrain Breads
  3. Brussels Sprouts-Once considered cabbage's "smelly" cousin, the Brussels sprout is gaining in popularity. The veggie is packed with 130% of your daily value of free-radical-fighting vitamin C
  4. Farro-With the growing focus on whole grains, ancient grains like farro are gaining a following.
  5. Flaxmeal-The health community is buzzing about omega-3 fatty acids.
  6. Gluten-Free Baking Mixes
  7. Greek Yogurt-Thicker and more tangy than traditional yogurt, Greek-style yogurt has become an everyday staple for many cooks. A 6-ounce serving of nonfat Greek yogurt has 15 g of protein, 5 g more than traditional nonfat plain yogurt.
  8. Heirloom Tomatoes-Old varieties of tomatoes are making a comeback.
  9. Israeli Couscous-Round semolina pasta, bigger than regular couscous, Israeli couscous is great in soups, salads or pilafs.
  10. Kefir-Think yogurt in a glass. This fermented dairy beverage is packed with beneficial probiotics that may help give your immune system a little extra edge.
  11. Kombucha-Kombucha is a fermented tea...
  12. Multigrain Tortillas
  13. Nut Butters-Peanut butter may be the first thing that comes to mind when you hear "nut butter," but today there are many varieties.
  14. Spice Blends
  15. Steel-Cut Oats-Here is an example of "what is old is new again." Steel-cut oats (sometimes called Irish oatmeal) are whole-grain oats that have been cut into little pieces rather than rolled.
