Give the Bees a Break!


I recently discovered Agave Nectar and it is very tasty! Quite sweet, in fact about two times that of honey.  A little bit goes a very long way.  I think it is important to know that our sweet honey bees are in danger of extinction.  So much so that Haagan-Das Ice Cream company has donated $250,000 to two major universities to fund the research of our bee colonies-The Bee Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD).   So give the bees a break and try Agave instead...

your journal is beautiful and I love your art style! And thanks for educating me about the bees! I also thought agave is scare, but probably not as hard to grow as bees!

Great site Katie, What's agave? If I am what I eat I'm in big trouble.

Oh, I got your comments! I hope you have fun on your trip! We went to Japan 3 years ago and it was awesome! I have blogged only the first few days of our trip so far--I'd better get busy and finish before it's time for Hong Kong, LOL! Here's a link to see my Japan stories:
