Honey Bee Jewelry plus Honey Lemon Dressing Recipe from World Peace Jewelry

There's a special place in my heart for the honey bee.  Not only is the bee the symbol of the source of life and all inspiration, but we would all be lost without honey bees to provide pollination.  Besides, honey is one of my favorite things and a sweet treat.

Here's a very simple recipe for a zesty honey lemon dressing that is easy to make and delicious drizzled over salad greens or on steamed green beans, asparagus, broccoli.

1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
2 tbsp honey
1 tsp lemon zest
4 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tsp Dijon mustard
1 garlic slove, pressed
½ tsp salt
½ tsp pepper
1/3 cup olive oil
Whisk together first 8 ingredients in a small bowl. All oil in a slow, steady stream, whisking constantly until smooth. Use immediately or store in an airtight container in refrigerator up to 5 days. Whisk before serving.

Combined with tart lemon yellow Peridot Jade and hand wire wrapped with vintage brass. A light hearted necklace that promotes a happy feeling.
