Found a couple of small French Coffee Presses for $3.99 each, so I thought I'd try them out.

Not being a "real" coffee drinker, I found that one table spoon is sufficient for the two cup press. DH likes it and says it makes robust coffee!

As I type, I am enjoying a "Light Pumpkin Spice" cup with milk and cotton-sage honey. Delicious!

Loose tea leaves also work great!

Anyone else use them??

If a plant has a flower, chick, then nectar can be extracted and bees can make honey. Not ALL flowers product lots of nectar, but the bees sure try!

Our honey is a combo of cotton AND sage...mostly cotton. I never knew this either until I married DH! Look around for "local" honey. It's not all clove as we see in the little bear-shaped bottles!

I have used sage honey in cookies for a light, deliciously sweet taste.
