Bees make nice things

primsongI'm up late (for me) waiting for my crockpot to finish cooking the lentil-sweet-potato-coconut-curry I'm making for tomorrow's potluck. The problem with sitting up late is I often end up wanting to buy things.
Actually, I've gotten to where I shop Etsy first anymore, I love being able to support all these nice people who make all these nice things! Like my somewhat-local Heavenly Honey Farm, - yummers... I tried their honey lip balm and honey eye cream and now find myself abandoning my former loyalty to the mass-marketed 'Burts Bees' with scarcely a backwards glance. Sorry, Burt! You've been one-upped. I went back to Heavenly today and ordered a couple of their 'pillows' of lip balms to give to our church and preschool staff for Christmas this year, yay for having that taken care of.
Now I want beeswax candles too. Haven't splurged on one of those for a long time. Hm!
