Great, thank you so much. Do you know if this can be stored or how long it lasts?


SOUNDS GREAT,its getting cold here in MICHIGAN.I will need it. Thanks FOR SHARING.


I would think it would keep fairly long, honey is the one food that never spoils. I realize it isn't pure honey but honey has antimicrobial properties and is being used for wound care to help keep wounds from becoming infected.


I love this idea.


Brilliant! My eldest suffers a lot with chapped lips. I'll make this for her...

Thanks

Another good one! Thanks Erma

I went to Wal-Mart tonight and because of the time of year the have flavored oils in 2 bottles for 1 price. Pretty cheap really. I picked up cherry, strawberry, and butterstoch. They had lots of other flavors I think I will have to go back and get some more!
