USPS does it again!
« on: June 18, 2012, 07:01:00 PM »
A parcel of Alaskan wild honey left its source on Saturday, the 16th. It was in my Virginia mailbox before noon today, the 18th.
Priority mail.

Thanks,Tim, and thanks, USPS!   :thumbsup:

Alaskan Wild Honey, I wonder how it tastes. It probably doesn't taste like clover, poplar, or sourwood honey. Anyone know the primary bloom from which it is produced? Killy, I envy you.

Actually, Alaska honey is some of the most sought after in the world I am told.  We have lots of poplar and there is clover, but the choice nectar is called fireweed and the honey it produces is actually clear like Karo syrup.  The window for bees to get it is very small though and therefore it comes at a premium.  

We gather morels by the bushels up here, but man I have never witnessed morels that were so buggy!

Killdeer, I am a huge fan of the USPS.  I shipped a Centaur to Jim on the 14th and he received today.

This was a St Jude's win for me this year. I want to thank Chinook907 for donating and shipping it. He even sent me some birch bark with it. I use it as incense in the house and at camp.

A T-shirt would last longer but wouldn't taste as good! I was gonna put it on Breyer's vanilla ice cream with fresh berries, but biscuits sound REAL good. This isn't any colorless honey, it is strongly yellow, and has a taste that is hard to describe. Sweet but not cloyingly so, and full of mystery. I better go try to get a more thorough impression of it so that I can write about it in a more concrete manner.
