Did you have them when you lived in Italy? I used to see them at Italian grocery stores when I still lived in NJ, but they're expensive, so I hadn't ever have them.<BR/><BR/>Anh, thank you so much for your encouragement :)<BR/><BR/>Lore, oh so am I! thanks!<BR/><BR/>Katie, you have kiwi bush/tree? I really like their taste, and their look (skin-off...).<BR/><BR/>Thank you so much Rosa!<BR/><BR/>Simona, I notice that you haven't updated your post for a while, hope everything fine with you. Best wishes to you and your family, and your job!<BR/><BR/>Susan, a comment from you, an Italian descent, means particularly special to me :) I thought you had made them so searched it at your recipe box... anyway, an excuse to see your other goodies :)<BR/><BR/>Aminah, me too, my family and my childhood were bonded with honey. The relatives from my father's side used to keep honey bees, we ate the bee wax, but which I didn't care for.<BR/>Imagine one day we can meet, enjoying cuppa of honey tea...<BR/><BR/>Helene, thanks for reminding me about the event!
