I walked by yankee candle company today and saw this cute little honeybee candle holder in the window. Usually you couldn't pay me to enter that store because the mixture of intense fragrances gives me a massive headache but I couldn't resist. At first I admired the honeybee from the window and then hubby urged me to buy it. I gave in because it was so darn cute and it cost so little. It is a gift to myself since I have such a long time to wait for my class to begin. For now I'll have to fill it with someone elses beeswax candle but someday I'll be able to fill it with one of my own.

SOON TO BE MICHELLE THE BEEKEEPER

I know it is still 58 days away but I'm so anxious for my beekeeping course to begin. I've been wanting to take this course for 3 years but each time I'd go to sign up it was already too late.

My first beekeeping course is March 13 and 14 for 16 hours total. Although beekeeping courses aren't required to become a beekeeper, there are plenty of books on the subject, I chose to do this hands-on under the instruction of those with experience because I want to do it right.

PRESERVATIVES AND WHY THEY ARE NEEDED
January 7, 2010
The very first time I made lotion, which was about 19 or so years ago, I used a recipe I found in a book my mother had given me. The recipe contained only natural ingredients and required refrigeration to prevent spoilage, which meant it lasted no more than a few weeks. I loved knowing it was ALL NATURAL but it wasn't so great slathering myself with freezing cold lotion after a nice warm shower. As time went on and
