The King’s Belly Sandwich
When I was younger, I was obsessed with Elvis Presley. Okay, I still am. But back then my imagination was so ripe, I could picture myself on the the brightly decorated sets of his formulaic movies, befriending costars like Shelly Fabres. Shelly would ask “Libbie Marie (I would, of course, change my name) what did you and “E” do last night” and I would fill her in on all the exotic fun a sheltered ten year old could dream up for a date with the king.
Those were the innocent thoughts that filled a young heart. And these are the flavors, in honor of a first crush –my king, that satisfy an adult appetite.

Inspired by Honey Take Three
Our study of honey concludes this week with the quiet image studies of photographer Chia Chong. On Tuesday, floral designer, Ashley Bailey, shares a design sprouting from an amber-colored honey-flower adorned vase. Thursdays are for eating and this Thursday is no exception with a recipe by Libbie Summers for honey cooked pork belly sandwich fit for a king and a president. The weekend concludes with beautiful, silly and informative behind-the-scenes shots that show the inner workings of our little hive during these three weeks. Sit back and get sticky heat.

And then there was the girl-woman – a hive herself – brimming with busy-ness and beauty.
