The One That Got Away

by

Do you ever have days when all you wish to do is stay at home?  I have oodles of days when that is my wish.  This entire weekend I wished for that – but it didn’t work out so well.  I don’t mean to complain, but I will be looking forward to the next day […]

Spontaneous Cuisine

by

I quote Pearl Bailey…”The fact is that it takes more than ingredients and technique to cook a good meal.  A good cook puts something of himself into the preparation – he cooks with enjoyment, anticipation, spontaneity, and he is willing to experiment”.  This statement pretty much sums me up.  I begin with anticipation of enjoying […]

Going Green

by

One of the perks of capturing swarms or removing bees from people’s yards is they might toss you a bone in the way of a few bucks or in this case a lovely bunch of fresh-cut asparagus.  When I helped my bee man remove the bees from the water meter box a few days ago […]

For The Love of Lemon

by

Welcome my friends!  My apologies for having been gone so many days.  This past week did not allow time for me to join you here, at The Orange Bee.  My absence has been at the forefront of my thoughts everyday. I am happy to return and share with you an ideal recipe for this warm, […]

Lovely Rita

by

So much has happened in the bee yard this week.  The interesting thing is, all the events are important and for a bee keeper thrilling.  I have so many new photos to share with you as well as adventures to relate.  I can’t decide where to start, but I think you might be wondering why […]

by

I was craving chocolate cake.  I do not know why but I was.  It could be because I spotted this recipe in a magazine while I was waiting for a slow leaking tire to be repaired.  I was hungry, the worst time to grocery shop or peruse recipes.  Everything looks good when you’re hungry. All […]

Bees Are Not Boring

by

For an update on my bees check out the “Bees & Honey” page – All Hail The Queen – The Heidi Hive.  All week-long I’ve repeated the phrase, “welcome to bee keeping”.  I’m astonished at how much I’ve learned and the many different experiences I’ve had in such a short time.  Bees are not boring […]

Kiss The Moon

by

Did you see the moon on Saturday night?  It was a “Super Moon”.  I’m not calling it a super moon because I thought it looked super.  It was a “Super Moon” because scientists and astronomers refer to it as “Super” due to its being closer to earth and thus appearing brighter and bigger.  It was […]

Sweet Spring

by

Spring is near and it feels like it today.  Warm, sunny, clear, slight breeze and nearing the end of spring break.  It has been an interesting week at The Orange Bee between bee adventures, the college search, March madness taking over every television we own and seeking to enjoy spring and the absence of our […]
