Sumptuous rhubarb crumble made with margarine (see Day 1 - Denise) served with vanilla ice-cream and the yummiest-looking macaroon balls dipped in chocolate made with lots o' butter. I successfully restrained myself, but it wasn't easy, and it didn't make me a very happy camper to hear everyone exclaiming on how good the desserts were. Did I mention I have a pretty mean sweet tooth? Oh well, take the bad with the good I guess...
The potluck brought out a vegan question: what's the story with honey? I was putting some in a salad dressing I made when I remembered that some vegans don't eat honey. Someone said that honey is required for bee reproduction, but everything I have read says it is their food and I've always been led to believe that taking honey is not harmful to the bees. Anyone have thoughts on this?

Well,the net is full of non-inforamation on this one, but the simple answer is no because the honey is placed in the comb with an egg. There is no way to extract the honey without destroying the eggs.
