This is hilarious. But has absolutely nothing to do with beekeeping. :D

Royal jelly has also been mentioned in many fiction stories. Roald Dahl’s story on royal jelly fed to a newborn child is creepy and actually in a thriller-movie way exagurates the effects.

… he admits that last year he turned over half his bees to the production of the jelly, which he consumed himself. He did it in the hopes that it would make him more fertile, and it obviously worked since he daughter was conceived not long after. Mabel suddenly realizes that her husband does really resemble a great big bee, and her daughter laying on the table looks like nothing so much as a gigantic grub. “Why don’t you cover her up, Mabel?” he says. “We don’t want our little queen to catch a cold. Source: Great read at Roald Dahl Fans.

Creepy. Isn’t it?

According to this Bee movie trailer, it surely looks so:

Why the heck do these bees in the Bee Movie wear guns?! Do we really need weapon to get the ratings? Isn’t there another way to show the bees life to the children? For instance, I remember from my childhood many friendly cartoons, like Biene Maya. And nowadays all they do in the cartoons is shooting. :(


Anyone seen this war-propaganda-pentagon-sponsored-bees-movie?

According to “The healing foods reference database” royal jelly may help you with bone fractures, kidneys, liver, bronchial asthma, pancreatic disorders, stomach ulcers, insomnia, skin disorders, mental fatique, anemia and depression. But that’s about all they are saying about royal jelly.

Living near Adriatic coast and islands I sometimes come across Lavender. It’s a beautiful bushy kind of flover with a very distinctive scent. In my country people use small lavender packs in their wardrobes. They use them to prevent clothes being eaten by bugs.

Among honey lovers lavender honey is very respected! Here’s a shot of my bees on the lavender.

Yesterday while I was surfing I suddenly heard a really weird sound.It was a really huge bug! I grabbed my camera and a bastard landed directly on my Google mousepad.

I took one shot on the pad and then another one even closer. The bug’s green color almost matches the google green color.

Than I quickly debugged my room. :)
