I have been making a coconut shrimp with sweeted coconut meat, curry powder, lime juice, garlic, sweet peppers onions, a little bit of honey. Served over pasta.

No shrimp in house, but do have tempeh. Hmm - if I marinate the tempeh in sauce before cook....? (And given this is grain tempeh, no need for pasta). Good idea? Bad idea?

I love the idea of honey, but it's way too sweet for me to tolerate in any form other than a splash in hot tea.

I think I've seen a recipe for stuffed squash blossoms that sounded good - stuff them with a soft cheese mixture and panfry them, iirc. I'll take a look on my cookbook shelf, see if I can find it.

Gaaaaaaaa! I have pie, cheesecake, and brownies in the kitchen that I can not touch until the dinner party in a couple of hours. All this talk of honey and maple syrup makes me want to eviscerate the brownie pan with a spoon and a can of redi-whip.

Damn, now I want brownies, even though I'm past the witching hour for caffeine.

You are reminding me of a story. A friend stopped at a roadside stand in North Georgia selling honey and a customer kept asking questions about what type of honey it was. "Is this clover honey? Alfalfa honey?" The person selling the honey replied, "Lady, I just raise bees. I don't follow them."

That's funny, Ginger.

Can't find the recipe I was thinking of, but [link] may be apropos

Sounds good to me. I usually boil or steam the tempeh a bit before using it in something like that, but that's really a personal preference thing. (Boiling or steaming makes it slightly less bitter, so it depends on whether you like the bitter taste.)
