To Bee Or Not To Bee

 Stores have been selling a lot of bee things this summer! It seems to be all the rage. Here are just some of the bee things I have seen while shopping. I'll start with this bee mailbox.




A giant bee tic tac toe game!





And yes, I did buy some bee things. I will show you in my next post, and show what I did with them.

The bees are making good and the mosquitoes bite us. Well I guess the bees do too if we bother them.
I love the colors of the bees.

I LOVE all the bee things and wish I could buy them all.
I stay out of the stores because that's what I would do.

And I've never heard or read that proverb, but it is VERY true!

How darling. I like all the bee decorations.

I have a cookie jar that was given to my mom back in 1960 - as a gift when they bought a house - it is similar to the ceramic canisters with the bees on them - except, hers has a kitten. The top of the cookie jar has a chip on it. Mom gave it to me when my kids were young - to use as my cookie jar. Now I just use the base as a vase for a flower display.

All the bee things are cute. I don't have any bee things. Well have to remedy that soon. :)

Oh, cute things you came across at the store, Ginny. That mail box is delightful. Bees things usually come out in the Summer, as Yellow is a cheerful Summer color. Can't wait to see your "bee" things. Your Header is beautiful. You know, I'm allergic to bees. Love to take pictures of them, but never get too close to them. ; )

Oh bees are so sweet. MaryKay use to give her top people bumble bee pins. Aerodynamically the honey bee should not be able to fly but yet he does. I always loved that MaryKay treated her people so well, even the little ones. :-)

Sunday Sunset

 I snapped these from the Target parking lot. The sun had just gone down, but the trees were hiding the very bottom part of the sunset. Life...
