I like honey on toast, English muffins, biscuits and rolls--basically
any kind of warm bread eaten for breakfast. I especially like honey
comb, and I adore baklava, which often but not invariably uses honey
as a sweetener. I don't usually bake with honey though. If I do any
baking, I generally use sugar unless the recipe specifically calls for
honey.

Honey is also a comfort food for me -- tonight after a long day
concentrating on doctors' offices and clinical testing, pharmacies, very
nervewracking, not wanting any food; later about 8pm, I toasted a bagel, put
on some goat cheese and slathered it with honey.
(No major health problems, in case anyone is wondering.)

But though I'm a lover of honey, I do not prefer it in baking, nor honey ice
cream, nor any kind of tea sweetener.
