FROM THE EDITORS DESK: January 2009

Happy New Year Beekeepers. Did you remember to eat some honey on New Year’s Day to make sure that you will be sweet for the coming year? I forgot to eat my traditional herring this year this year, that was the first time I’ve forgotten that, so I hope the honey makes up for it.

My beekeeping holiday gifts were a huge success this year. I had a wonderful sale at our church fair, here I am at my table filled with honey, candles, lotion bars and lip balm. Maybe I’ll go into competition with Burt and his bees!

As you all know my work schedule has me working alternate weekends so I will miss seeing you at the next meeting in February. Since I am also membership chairperson and Dues are due, it would be very helpful if you are planning to pay your dues now, please mail them to me at home.
