OK, I am not posting this as a how-to or because I think I am a beekeeping expert (because I certainly am not). But, I don’t think our beekeeping saga on this blog would be complete without it. Thus, I am willing to suffer the injury to my vanity by posting this extremely unflattering video of myself. We had Derm Dad’s parents from Connecticut on Facetime on my cell phone, which Derm Dad passes off to Adele partway through the video. We also had my Mom on Facetime on the iPad. My friend Melody was holding the video camera – and I think she was kind of afraid of being stung, so she heads inside when things get hairy =)

I was NOT spraying laundry stain remover on the bees – it was sugar syrup – and that was the only sprayer that wouldn’t clog with the thick syrup (I tried several). The main thing is that nobody got stung and everything turned out fine. But it was kind of stressful there for a few minutes.

I described the whole thing HERE.
