Buzz...

Inspiration really can come from anywhere... so hopefully you wont find it too odd that that this post was inspired by Haagen-Dazs Ice Cream - the previously discontinued and now newly-released *Vanilla Honey flavor to be exact!

There is a bit of a history to this all actually.  When I was a girl my sister and I were not allowed to eat sugar (this is probably why I have such a sweet-tooth now).  Fortunately for us the only exception my Mom made to this was a rare and savored trip to the Haagen-Dazs shop where we always delighted in a scoop of Vanilla Honey in a waffle cone.   What heaven!  My Mom, sister, and I have often mused wistfully after our beloved Honey Vanilla... so you can imagine our extreme delight yesterday when we found Haagen-Dazs carrying it again!  Of course we had to try it immediately... and I am happy to report that it is every bit as exceptional as I remember from over 20 years ago!  Thank you Haagen-Dazs!

*Haagen-Dazs has re-released this flavor for a limited time with proceeds going to fund research to protect disappearing honey bee populations.  You can see more about their mission here. There you have it! xox Ez

Now if Baskin Robbins would just bring back Daiquiri Ice, all would be well in the ice cream world.

Sweet! And how rare that something fondly remembered from childhood actually lives up to the memory. Seems nothing tastes as good as I remember it!
