love your mama
November 15, 2011
when you think of your mama, what comes to mind? love, a certain smell, her delicious meals from scratch? how much do you “love your mama”? rhetorical question folks.
well… Mama loves you too!
Mama Bath + Body is just as good as your mama {maybe better!}. They put in lots of love, yummy scents, and make everything from scratch to offer up soaps, lotions, and candles just like your mama.
Their quaint shop in Decatur is a heavenly stop on your path to home {or mama’s house}. At the door you are welcomed in by lemongrass, lavender, mint, and the smell of fresh. While there, you can create your own signature lotion scent or choose one of the winners that Mama makes. And no matter where you live, Mama even has soaps that you can represent your ‘hood with. Beginning in January, Mama’s will fire up the stove and teach you how to keep it clean and make a bar or two.
On Saturday, December 10, Mama will open her doors to holiday shoppers and introduce you to her crafty friends. Mama’s Handmade Holiday will showcase Atlanta’s finest in the gift giving/keeping.
Don’t keep Mama waiting… Stop by Mama Bath + Body to smell good {sniff, sniff} and pick up a tin of tea while you’re there.

In case you were wondering, just add honey loves Fall.
Corduroy. Leaves changing colors. Chunky scarves. Boots. Crisp mornings. Rich colors. Manageable temperatures. Blazers. (We really just like Fall clothes.) But seriously. All of Fall screams a good cup of tea.
Perfect outfit. A cup of tea.
Cooler temeratures. A cup of tea.
Fall. A cup of tea.
And we want you to be prepared (No… We are not giving away a free wardrobe makeover!).
What we will give you is a FREE teaspoon infuser with a purchase of a 4oz tin of tea. That way you are ready for Fall with a good cup of tea.
Happy Fall! You’re welcome.

a little bit of this… and a bit of that
August 22, 2011
How can so much goodness be packed in a tin!?
Well. We start with a little bit of this, and a bit of that, and oh! that might be good too! And. BAM! (sorry, I couldn’t resist)
papaya ginger is born!
It a tropical melange of white and green teas with a juicy papaya, fresh picked pineapple, and pomegranate. We added a slice of ginger to offer a unique flavor that is perfect as an iced tea treat (is your mouth watering yet?). Think sun, sand, and a cool breeze.
I’m pouring a glass now…
i scream. you scream. we all scream…

For ice cream!!!!!!!
What’s Summer without ice cream?! Freshly baked waffle cones. Creamy goodness running down your hand. An “All American” treat that is everyone’s favorite.
Well, the folks at Tru Bee honey know how to make an ice cream that is perfect for Summer. And without a pinch of sugar, this simple recipe will please all of the screamers!
Honey Vanilla Ice Cream
2 cups milk {we like 2 percent}
3/4 cup honey {wildflower honey, of course}
dash of salt
2 eggs beaten
2 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon real vanilla extract
In saucepan, heat milk but don’t burn or “scald” it. Stir in honey and salt. Pour small amount of warm liquid into eggs; return to milk mixture and cook over medium-low heat for 5 minutes or less, stirring constantly. Cool thoroughly. Stir in cream and vanilla. Freeze in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer’s directions. Makes about 5 cups.
Serve with drizzled honey and fresh fruit. Cheers!
