I went to the farmers market this morning and got honey and challah. (which is one of my fav breads)

So of course lunch was a nice big slice of bread with honey and butter and it was delicious.

Did you know that...

Honey never spoils? Bees are so important not just to the environment, but also to humans. Honey is an amazing resource that can be used for many things and if bees become extinct we will lose much more than just honey.

The bee's brain is oval in shape and only about the size of a sesame seed, yet it has remarkable capacity to learn and remember things and is able to make complex calculations on distance traveled and foraging efficiency.

Did you know...

That there are three types of bees in a hive: workers, drones, and the queen. All of the worker bees are female and do all of the work to keep the hive running, and all of the drones are male and go out and try to find a queen bee to mate with.
