He izz a Gangzter

Zometimez the keeperz get new gear and gadgetz

"again with the zmoke"!!
zometimez if the hive iz not ztrong
wax mothz try to invade
Be sober, be vigilant;
because your adversary
the devil, as a roaring lion,
walketh about, seeking
whom he may devour:
1 Peter 5:8

The keeper'z "Queen Mother" likes to help
She keeps an eye on everyone in her household,

Her children respect and bless her;
proverbs 31:27-29

we collect our left overz
(under a watchful eye of the keeperz)
..~WINTER~..
We keep warm in winter by clustering
and flapping our wingz
It'z alwayz good to
remove the znow from our doorway
zo on a nice day we can come outzide to

Dear Linnie,
ReplyDeleteI didn't know the 16th was a day for bees; now I do! Thank you for sharing photos of the fun and work of raising honey. I can vouch for the love you put into your girlzzz, for the sweetness and fruitiness of your honey is quite amazing.
Love,
Marqueta
Good morning Mildren, Owen, Linnie and Mr. Bee Keeper! OHHHHHHH LINNIE! How fun it is to "visit" your homestead where magic lives! This was such a delight to watch how you live and help the bee population! We here in the Twin Cities have seen an increase in the bee AND butterfly population because people are planting "Bee friendly" gardens. We even saw a "Bee Hotel" in one garden.
ReplyDeleteI JUST LOVE Mildred and Owen with their bee keeper gear! teeehehehehee
Tea Rat is brave and would love to try to keep bees but Rattus would not have it. He says it's best that Tea Rat reserve the honey for tea, and to go to the shoppe to buy his honey! teeeee
Wishing you a happy weekend, Linnie! Anita
teehee....those two bee-keeping mouse are TEA RAT'S CUP OF TEA! Oh Linnie, don't you just love (to play?) And you are correct; in Nowhere, there are no clocks and no boundaries. Anything goes there! teeehehee....
ReplyDeleteI really need to post again, maybe even today! KEEP WATCH!
Thank you sweet friend, for coming by!
Oh my dear i stand in awe! I have yet to even fill my hive, let alone accomplish all that you and Gar Bear have done. I am so impressed with the beauty of it all; the swarm, the worker bees the gathering of the honey and then actually jarring it! You are my heros! And I have eaten all that honey you sent me last year, I can attest to it's pure tastiness. Jeri

ReplyDeleteLINNIE! Teehee...you came to see what Tea Rat ordered on-line...his favorite PIN-UP! Rattus does NOT approve because yes, she is a distraction to the boys in the cottage! Tea Rat is a big love bug and just adores Penny's mice, but his one true love is Miss Moussie, the creation of the Dutchess. But she is a single mouse, never to marry. Tea Rat did send her an engagement ring once (he really did, a mini diamond ring!)
Oh the fun of Nowhere, and the friends who visit. Thank you!
Ha love the mouziekins in their bee outfits! what a great post we know people through 4H who do the bee keeping. Just such a fascinating and amazing process. ~thanks for Sharing Heather
ReplyDeleteLovely post and was great to see all the activity of your hive and homestead. One of my Uncles had bees and I used to love watching him work.
ReplyDeleteYou can't beat the liquid gold and from the honeycomb - delicious.
Thanks for sharing and visiting me.
Hope you are enjoying the week
hugs
Carolyn
What a fabulous and informative post.
ReplyDeleteI very much enjoyed it !
Thanks so much for taking the time to share all of this.
What a wonderful post. I so enjoyed it! The pictures are just lovely.
ReplyDeleteBlessings sweet friend,
Valerie
Wow, your bees are wonderful! I really enjoyed the seasonal photos. My husband is interested in beekeeping but little by little we will get there! To harvest your own pure honey sounds amazing! And the lovely by-products you can make with the beeswax is exciting to me too! So much blessings! Thanks for sharing this on the Art of Home-Making Mondays :) Have a peaceful week in His tender loving care...
ReplyDeleteVery interesting post on your bee keeping. I know very little about it, but am so interested in knowing more. My DIL's father is a bee keeper, so she has shared a bit. And the Moussiekin family are even specialist in the business, now how about that. Shame on me for taking so long to visit you my friend, I did not know what I was missing, but surely knew it was bound to be good indeed. Blezzings.... to you all
ReplyDeleteYou have the most interesting posts!!!! Somehow I missed this one till today. I loved seeing you and hubby and your beautiful home and your lovely bees. We love honey too, and did think about having some bees...maybe someday!
ReplyDeleteLove ya!
How interesting and such great photos of a year of bee keeping. I have some great honey here right now made by friends.(well the bees really!)
ReplyDeleteLove the web page. Living in relationship and union with Christ - my heartbeat.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry your old sewing machine stand fell over. It did look charming - but "we live & learn." And it appears that you've learn quite a bit about bee-keeping. What a picturesque experience you given us as well as practical. Oh the honey indeed looks zo delectable - I agree. If I were there I might partake of so much honey for tea that, like Pooh Bear, I may have trouble fitting through the hole of a rabbit's door.
