Hello Cora,
This pos...•♥•´¯`•.¸¸.♥•.•♥•´¯`•.¸¸.♥•<br /><br />Hello Cora,<br /><br />This post encouraged me to look up more specifics about bees and was reminded that it was a symbol of royalty - and that, come to think of it, eating honey is like imbibing flowers...<br /><br />Golden essence of flowers in a bottle - how lovely is that!<br /><br /><br /><i>"Veiled in this fragile filigree of wax is the essence of sunshine, golden and limpid, tasting of grassy meadows, mountain wildflowers, lavishly blooming orange trees, or scrubby desert weeds. <br /><br />Honey, even more than wine, is a reflection of place. If the process of grape to glass is alchemy, then the trail from blossom to bottle is one of reflection. <br /><br />The nectar collected by the bee is the spirit and sap of the plant, its sweetest juice. Honey is the flower transmuted, its scent and beauty transformed into aroma and taste." <br />~ Stephanie Rosenbaum </i><br /><br />•♥•´¯`•.¸¸.♥•.•♥•´¯`•.¸¸.♥•Lady Prism Livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03704836171877287392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21103988.post-66185215263858997052011-08-08T16:13:57.801-05:002011-08-08T16:13:57.801-05:00Is it true you can work with no protective gear an...Is it true you can work with no protective gear and they won't sting you?Bonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10096591352278195759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21103988.post-62933870530720255022011-08-02T14:16:37.128-05:002011-08-02T14:16:37.128-05:00Wow, that was very interesting -- didn't know ...Wow, that was very interesting -- didn't know there was so much to recovering the honey. I realize the bees aren't particularly happy about parting with the stuff, but the process is fascinating. Thanks for sharing that.

...That is awesome about Pawpaw! I am happy for you.<br />I am also impressed with the bee stuff too.<br />One thing I have always wondered about, is that how do the bees get the pollen or nectar from the flowers and make honey out of it. Is it really bee spit?<br />Jus askin.Bad Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06176963470846893352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21103988.post-17207578193786419152011-07-25T00:21:05.124-05:002011-07-25T00:21:05.124-05:00somehow,

For some reason, I've always paired bees with insanity--probably because I see no logic to their movements. <br /><br />(2) Glad to hear that Pawpaw is "on the mend."
