Just one month away from getting our two new bee colonies! Last weekend I went to a friends birthday party and met a couple that are bee keepers as well. I had been feeling pretty down about losing all three of my colonies, but my partner in crime and I had mustered...

I received this cute little S’ip by S’well water bottle as a Mother’s Day gift from my son. I love that it has little honey bees on it. I try to use reusable water bottles whenever possible so this was a perfect gift for me. We are not paid to do reviews of...
