t's amazing that a war hasn't been fought over honey.

Yes, honey – the sweet, viscous food substance produced by bees and some related insects, with bees producing honey from the sugary secretions of plants; or other insects through re- gurgitation, enzymatic activity, and water evap- oration.

Sounds complicated. But is it really? Honey is one of those historic foodstuffs, like olives and grapes and pomegranates. That isn't just be- cause it is an amazing perfect feat of nature, like the coconut, banana or avocado. It's because if you take all the legendary benefits, historic role and modern nutrition/food medicine factors into consideration, there really aren't many foods that conjure the mystic. Sorry, Splenda.

But there is honey. And while, yes, it is a sug- ar with similar calories to all sugar and thus something to consider, it has other health factors that can't be ignored. It is rich in antioxidants, has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial bene- fits, improves bad cholesterol levels and blood pressure, can lower triglycerides, is good for the heart and better for diabetics than any other sug- ar. And those are just the ones with hard science behind them. Sourced honey has even more potential benefits. Given its relationship to local flora, eating honey produced by bees in your OF PEXELS.COM COURTESY PHOTO BY PIXABAY. general area can also positively impact allergies from local sources and build your immune sys- tem's resistance to local allergens.

OK, so, sure, it is the stuff of research papers, but it also a sweetener with a delicious, distinct, flavor. How best for the home chef to take ad- vantage of that?

Baklava might be the best-known honey dessert. Now, I don't bake, so for this recipe, I went to Food Network cooking diva Ree Drummond. Baklava can be a little fussy, but so worth it.

RN: My favorite Disney character growing up was and still is Ariel from The Little Mermaid. I love her red hair!

RC: How did you become part of Disney on Ice's Mickey's Search Party? RN: I have been touring with Disney on Ice for six years. When I heard about the opportunity to be a part of a new and exciting show, I didn't hesitate!

RC: What do you like the most about this show? RN: There is a lot about this show I'm excited for. The first thing that comes to my mind is the music. All the songs we know and love have such a fun, upbeat spin to them. You will sing along, but you'll also want to get up and dance!

RC: Tell us about your career so far with Disney on Ice and why you decided to become part of these Disney shows on ice. RN: I had been skating for a long time and didn't want to compete anymore. My coach suggested I audition for a show, and Disney on Ice was the first that came to my mind. This is my seventh tour with the company, and it's always a blast. I've been to places I never even considered on my list of places to go! It's been such a fun experience being able to perform in so many different locations. I have learned a lot about myself as I've grown up on tour.

RC: What does it take to become a successful Dis- ney on Ice performer? RN: For competitive skaters, they know a little about discipline. To become a Disney on Ice per- former, the first thing you do is send in a video of your skating skills, or an in-person audition in some cases. To be successful, I suggest showing good quality skating skills. They want to see you project out to the audience and just show that you love to skate!

24 WIREMAG.COM #37 2018 MUSCLE BOY SATURDAYS AT TWIST PHOTOS BY J.R. DAVIS WIREMAG.COM/PHOTOS TOP TRAX By DJ FR8-O BLOOMS TROYE SIVAN AGAIN n case you haven't noticed yet, gay is in again; or I guess "out," depending on how you look at it. Back in the '80s androgyny was all the rage in the music scene. Boys looked like girls (Boy George), girls pretend- ed to be boys (Annie Lennox) and being bi was the norm. It was glorious! However, like every trend, those glory days eventually came to an end and we got pushed back into the closet. Bisexual artists suddenly turned straight and be- ing out meant the end of your music career; at least as far as the mainstream was concerned.

They say trends have a way of coming back around, so I'm beyond excited to see that after way too many decades in that soundproof clos- et, this particular trend is finally coming back; only this time no one is pretending. LGBTQ artists are emerging onto the music landscape again, and right now no one blooms more beautifully than Troye Sivan. Although Sivan has been singing and acting since he was 12, he rose to fame when he was 17 as a You- Tube vlogger. His video collaboration with fel- low vlogger called "The Boyfriend Tag" was so popular it turned Sivan into a viral sensation and landed him a Teen Choice Award. Soon after, he released a string of EPs and a music video trilogy chronicling his journey of love and self-realization as a young gay man. While the rest of the world embraced his bold honesty and vulnerability, the U.S. had yet to know who this gifted singer- was, until now.

Bloom is the long-anticipated follow-up to Siv- Compared to his previous work, Bloom is both a little more dancey and a little bit deeper. an's epic 2015 debut album Blue Neighbour- The set opens up with "Seventeen" a story Sivan says is about a hook-up he had with an hood. As 2018 rolled around, the 23-year-old older man he met on Grindr. Besides sexual experiences, Sivan also touches on love and rang in the new year by kissing his model boy- of course break-ups, like the heart-wrenching piano ballad "Postcard" or the guitar-driven friend, then unleashing Bloom's first single "My "." There are a few upbeat moments like on "Lucky Strike" and "Plum" My My" and dominating the American charts where you'll get why some people have dubbed him as the male . Besides for the first time. Since then he's dropped three sharing the same initials, Sivan has also become the voice of the new generation. Only more singles, including the infectious title track in his case, he speaks for the LGBTQ fans who have ever felt out of place, been madly, and his mesmerizing duet "" with inexplicably in love or just had a forbidden fling. So pretty much all of us. Pop Princess, Ariana Grande. OK, now that you're all caught up, let's talk about the rest of Troye Sivan kicks off his U.S. tour this month in Texas, but you can catch him in Miami the album: on Sept 29. © DEPOSITPHOTOS.COM | KAVRAMM PHOTO CREDIT: If you're a recording artist, producer or musician and would like your work featured in TOP TRAX, hit me up at [email protected].
