the scent of honeysuckle seems to be the perfume the heartland wears in late may and june.it is so intoxicating that I've often wondered how i could capture the scent and flavor and keep it for the rest of the year. when i mentioned this once in 1998 to my mother,she gave me this recipe,which she concocted after she gathered enough honeysuckle blossoms .she was my mom and best friend.and i miss her!
