Hello,
Darlings!
The
days are warming up, the daffodils are peeking
out … spring is definitely in the air. And
we all know what that means, right? Spring cleaning.

So
how are things in your bedroom? I’m not talking
closets or drapes here. There’s no better time
than spring to brush off the cobwebs, let in some fresh
air and bring a little excitement back into the boudoir.
Send your sweetie an armload of colourful spring flowers,
with a steamy, seductive note, naturalement. Treat yourself
to some luscious lingerie,
or invite that sexy someone out for a romantic dinner
á deux. Who knows? Maybe daffodils won’t
be the only new things blooming!
Spring’s
a time for new beginnings and Honey’s got some
brand new high-tech toys that’ll really get your
hard drive humming. Can’t go anywhere without
your MP3 player? Keep reading and we'll give you the
latest buzz.
And
finally, in honour of Nutrition Month, did you know
that some of the best-known aphrodisiacs are also highly
nutritious? It’s true! (Who says nothing fun is
ever good for you?) In this issue of the Honey Buzz,
we’ll show you how eating your veggies can nourish
your body and liven up your libido. Delish!

Ever
notice how some foods just make you more, well, amorous?
Think rich, sweet chocolate, chilled, briny
oysters, crisp, juicy grapes and robust red wine. |
Since
ancient Greek and Roman times, certain foods have been thought
to possess special powers, increase virility and stimulate
the sex drive. Named for Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love,
early aphrodisiacs were said to increase fertility. Many resembled
seeds or semen (e.g., bulbs, eggs, snails). Others were said
to have magic powers because they resembled male or female,
er, parts (e.g., oysters, sliced figs, or the phallic rhinoceros
horn.)
More recently,
asparagus, pine nuts, rosemary, basil, black beans and artichokes
have all been dubbed aphrodisiacs. Coincidentally (or not?),
many of these foods are also low in fat and high in vitamins
and minerals. Turns out Mom was right – veggies are
good for you! And if you’re looking to raise the romance
quotient, the ancients suggested steering clear of dill, lentils,
lettuce and watercress.

and tantalizing treats for two, check out:
