In a bowl, combine flour, baking soda, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. Beat together butter, honey, and lemon extract. Gradually add dry ingredients. Add the poppy seed/milk mixture. Drop by the spoonful onto cookie sheets about 2" apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer to wire racks to cool.
