A Bee in My Coffee!

2/1/2018

0 Comments

 
This is a beautiful morning to sit on the patio and enjoy the sunshine and warm 55 degrees.  After taking only a short break, I head back inside before going out to my office, thinking it was time to go to work for the day.  I chuckled to myself.  I was already working.  I had just fed the chickens, and my time on the patio was spent doing a little research on a farm topic.  What a beautiful life!  Love it on days like today when work feels more like a hobby or enjoyable pastime.  As I was walking in the house I look down in my coffee cup.  To my surprise I see a bee.  In case you're wondering, I scoop out the bee before she drowns and kept on drinking my coffee because we now bees are very sterile creatures.  Looks like I have successfully found another way to procrastinate before heading out to work on our taxes!  I need to feed the bees.  After all, this is the time a year in which many hives are lost due to starvation.  So I mix up some syrup, grabbed a bag of natural pollen, and head to the bee feeder.  THEN I'll go start on the taxes.  That is if I don't get distracted with something else again.  (Like writing this post.)  Happy Gardening and God Bless!
