And oh yes, I DO want to think about it. I like leftovers of all sorts. There's always an interesting story behind a leftover. TAren't paper towel rolls wonderful?

...DB, I'd send you some, but that's all I've got! <br /><br />Kim, I will use it for coating the top bars in the beehive, from which the bees will build their honeycomb. I think the color comes from pollen! So cheery.<br /><br />DG, I'll be you could apprentice yourself to some winemaker ... This stuff is not all that hard. Everything I've learned about bees I've learned online, save for the few tidbits from bee club. <br /><br />Jen, it'll be for beekeeping! I may be able to replenish some of it next year, if I do get bees and they actually survive. Honey tasting! That's a good idea. I'll have to look out for some different varieties. Another snb would be fun. Y'all could come down here, too. <br /><br />Kathi, it's the hobby that never ends! <br /><br />Thanks, Steph! I was thinking about Burt's Bees, as a matter of fact, when I was doing this. I wonder where they get their wax.<br /><br />Amy, I would sell it if I had more than that! But I have no idea if/when I'll be able to get any more in appreciable amounts.Kitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16673726727402668186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30450596.post-74064895418980441602009-04-17T19:44:00.000-06:002009-04-17T19:44:00.000-06:00So you won't be selling it, then, if that's all yo...So you won't be selling it, then, if that's all your work produced. Probably a good move.<br /><br />Because I could turn that wax into some seriously awesome lip balm, if'n I was allowed. :) But I don't think I could afford it, after seeing how much work it takes to get it.Rockquelle, the Rollergirl Next Doorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07042538817732693493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30450596.post-17195579506057135892009-04-17T15:40:00.000-06:002009-04-17T15:40:00.000-06:00I've been reading your blog through RSS feed for a...I've been reading your blog through RSS feed for a little while and always love your bee / wax / honey posts.
