Hi everyone…..

We are just home from a warm winter getaway in Mexico.  We came home to snow and ice yesterday and a blizzard today….sure is good to be home!!!!  (Just kidding!!!!)

Having nothing better do do during the blizzard….I began surfing the web.   I was looking up “Honeymoon.”  We had noticed a few young couples carrying large white wedding dress bags off the plane and also noticed that our resort was hosting a wedding while we were there.

Did you know that traditionally, HONEY played a big part in the celebration!!

Wikipedia says:  In many parts of Europe it was traditional to supply a newly married couple with enough Mead (a sweet wine made from fermented honey.)  for a month, ensuring happiness and fertility.  Years ago a month was referred to as a “Moon”…. Thus the term “Honeymoon” came into existence!

I also read that in Greek Mythology……it was said that Cupid dipped his arrow in honey to fill the lovers heart with sweetness.

How romantic…….

It has inspired me to add  a “Wedding Favours” Product line to Zee-Bee Honey.  We have some great small  glass hex jars that can be personalized with the Bride and Grooms names and date or, a cute little 41/2 inch Honey Bear.   Wouldn’t that be “Perfectly Sweet”!      

How about some heart shaped Beeswax floating candles!    Wouldn`t that show that “Love is buzzing!“

We want our marriages to last a lifetime……so why not give the gift that lasts a lifetime!  It was “Meant to Bee`

Give me a call if you are planning a wedding and are looking for wedding favours that are “Sweet as can Bee“

Beeswax Floating Heart Candles

I just wanted to take a moment to thank all of my customers for all their support throughout the year.  I really appreciate it.  I truly enjoy speaking to all of you at the market and sharing a story or two.  When I get home, I always have stories to share….about people I met and the stories that they have shared with me…..I learn so many new things through the wonderful people that I meet.

A friend once told me that “A stranger is just a friend you haven’t met yet!“  That’s they way I like to feel about all of my customers, and I hope they feel the same way about me! 

Shopping local isn’t just about the produce, or reducing emissions…..it’s about the people!

So thanks again for shopping local….and for all your support over the past year!

Hope you can all “Bee” Happy over the Holidays!

And a Happy and Healthy New Year to you all! 

Well, it is over until next year!  Regina Farmers’ Market held it’s last market of the year on Saturday, December 19th.  The isles were packed with shoppers picking up their Christmas baking, their pies,  potatoes, carrots, perogies…..all the fixin’s for their festive meal.  I made sure I got my Lefsa….Christmas wouldn’t be the same without that!

(Spring market opens March 6th 2010, 2900 13th Avenue)

Terra Madre Day

A big thank-you to the Management and Staff of the Fainting Goat Restaurant for a great Terra Madre Day celebration on December 10th.

Terra Madre Day is a day set aside for the world to celebrate eating locally!  The Fainting Goat hosted a 5 course meal prepared with local food.  The restaurant was filled to capacity to enjoy the fabulous meal.  Many of the producers were there as well as loyal customers all showing their support of local sustainability.

Thanks for inviting us…..it was good company….and marvelous food!

It was a busy week for us as we helped out at the Regina and District Bee Club/Saskatchewan Beekeepers Association Booth’s during the “2009 Western Canadian Agribition” in Regina.  Many members of the Regina and District Beekeepers Club helped in promoting the Beekeeping Industry in Saskatchewan. 

A  live bee hive is brought in  for the show….this generates alot of interest….and questions from young and old alike!

If you missed it this year, be sure and stop by for a chat next year!  It’s a lot of  fun, there is so much to see and do at the “Agribition”.
