The day after; I’m 43!

Yesterday was my birthday. For myself, it’s just another day so I don’t plan anything special on that day.

It’s business as usual. So naturally that meant yesterday I went to work, like I normally do. I did get a surprise once I arrived home with my daughter. She had made me a suncatcher ornament, a beaded necklace and a really sweet card. I have no idea where she gets her crafty tendencies! 😉 It made my usual sparkling day a bit brighter. To add to that awesomeness, C, one of her friends/classmates made me a really sweet birthday card. I’m going to laminate it and post on our refrigerator.

Of course, this gives me an excuse to make something for her friend. This weekend, I’ll be pulling out my paper crafts, Cuttlebug, pencils and markers so I can make her a really nice Thank You card. I’ll also knit or embroider something for her. I know she loves girly things.

 

Adventures in Beekeeping: Raw Honey

I’ve finally gotten around to posting a picture of one of the honeycombs that I took from the hive.

Raw Honey

More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb.
Psalms 19:10

After taken it from the hive I added it to storage bags and placed in the freezer. The next day I removed it and placed it in the refrigerator. I till haven’t gotten around to pressing the honey from the comb, perhaps I’ll have a chance to do that tomorrow.
