Our little bees have been very busy this summer.
The bee guy came a few days ago to rob the hive. He said we had lots of bees and some good honey. He took the honey back to his house and filtered it into a large bucket which he brought back. For all of this he only kept a couple of pints for himself.
All's we had to do was open the spigot and run it into jars. How simple is that!
And look what we got, 1 quart, 8 pints, and 13 half pints (2 gallons and 1/2 pint total).
It's beautiful and clear and tastes yummy. Got any good recipes?
So, so jealous of your bees. I've always wanted a hive of my own. I use honey in my honey wheat bread, and I whip up a batch of cinnamon honey butter to spread on rolls. Yummy!
