Hello. It’s me! It’s been a while.
You may be wondering how life has been for an enthusiastic/obsessive new beekeeper such as myself without bees. Well, I have descended further into insanity over the last few months. On the back of a foraging book I have taken to eating the Spring leaves from hawthorn hedges and the flowers of wild garlic. Instead of talking with bees I have been engaging in long, primeval squealing and screeching with our baby girl. I think I am imitating her … but it’s been going on so long now that she might be imitating me. I must try “da-da” a bit more, but it’s not as fun.
However, this post is a bit of a teaser to my main news! I have an update on the bee situation. I’ll download some photos and blog it in the next few days.
Postscript – please read: The Bees Are Back In Town
For sanity’s sake I hope you get some new bees soon! Look forward to the update 🙂
Sounds tantalising!
Great to be talking with you guys (Emily and Emma) again too. I’m in a good mood. It’s day three and the bees are still there!
So, have you given up on beekeeping altogether or are you just taking a break and devoting time to the wee one?
I’ve been really busy with the wee one … but the bees have come at the right time.
