My PIL's came this weekend with 3 boxes....2 for us and 1 for them. BEES! Yes! we are now a hobby apiary...makes it sound like we're growing apes but no! it's bees. We are beekeepers. My Farmer BT grew up with them so he felt it was time to make the farm really buzz. Oh BEEhave...
In celebration we are studying The Bee Tree this week. Yesterday we did the bible (Prov. 16:24) and looked at Michigan & Yukon.
Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body - Prov. 16:24

Homemade Cough Syrup - Great for Colds Too!
Okay I'll give ya this...the ingredients sound gross but it works.
1 Raw White Onion
*Raw Honey - Must be RAW! check as most store bought honey is pasteurized .
Take the onion and cut into parts. Now stab it a couple of times with a fork so the quarters have a little bit of holes. It doesn't have to be perfect so don't worry about not stabbing it the right amount of times. Place onion in a quart mason jar and fill with raw honey so that the onion is just covered. Screw lid on and leave on the back part of your stove for at least a day but probably a couple of days. You'll notice that the onion imparts it's juice into the honey. Using a strainer pour liquid into a pint mason jar and store in the fridge. To take you want to take a teaspoon 3 to 4 times a day when you're battling a cold or cough.
*NOTE:
****Please remember not to give honey to children under 1*****
