In my house, we use a lot of honey. In Colorado, this is a problem because it often crystallizes when it gets too cold. In the old days, I would have stuck the little honey bear in the microwave, melted the crystals and enjoyed my tea without a second thought. Now I second think everything. And I don’t microwave plastic anymore. This made sad. For my honey still crystallized.
Discouraged, I went to Bed, Bath and Beyond looking for ye olde honey pot with wooden honey stick. What I found was much neater.

Ye Olde Restaurant Syrup Pitcher!
(and yes. I still can’t find the camera. Ask me how much this is killing me. Ok, don’t. It’s killing me.)
A much neater option. Works perfectly. When the honey hardens, I just unscrew the cap, stick it in the microwave for a few seconds and voila! My tea is happy with its honey.

you should try agave nectar. it’s thinner than honey, you don’t need as much and it doesn’t crystallize! your hair looks great!

My neighbor who does their own bees and make honey, told me not to microwave my honey. They say to put it into a hot bath of water and let the honey turn back to a more liquid form when it gets crystallized. On another note, your hair looks cute. Mine is about the same length but came back curly after chemo. I’ve been doing a bit of mousse on it which makes for a curly do.
