Aug 1, 2023; 07:26AM - They Don't Teach You This About Honey Bees in Schools
|
|
Category: [other]

Author Name: @TheWarKitchen

Tip&Trick Description 1:
1. Honey is the only food that has every single substance to sustain life.
2. Honey doesn't ever turn bad. You can actually eat honey that was found in Egyptian tombs
thousands of years ago. (if you dare) ‼️
3. A single bee produces just HALF a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime. Hard work.
4. The darker the honey, the more powerful its medicinal properties and the less sweet it is.
The inverse also holds true.
5. Honey is the original antibiotic. It's been used as an antibacterial and antifungal for
generations.
6. Honey is a natural sleeping pill. Consuming honey aids with the production of melatonin.
Drink a warm cup of chamomile and take a shot of honey to the dome. Game changer.
7. You don't need to wash your honey dipper if you leave it in the jar of honey itself. Honey
is a natural preservative, so bacteria will not grow.
8. To make one pound of honey, bees need to visit 2 million flowers. 2 MILLION.

Tip&Trick Description 2:
9. Honey is the only food made by an insect that's actually eaten by BOTH the insect and us.
We're literally best friends.
10. Honey is one of the original remedies for an everyday cough & allergies. Local honey is
said to be useful in curing seasonal allergies.
11. Bees don't sleep. Work hard. Play hard.
12. Honey is excellent on burns. Cool the burn in running water. Pat it dry. Apply raw, organic
honey. It will speed up healing and even reduce any eventual scarring.
13. Babies under 12 months of age shouldn't ingest honey (their immune system isn't yet strong
enough to handle a certain strain of bacteria that's quite prevalent in honey)
14. Honey, like a lot of 'animal-based' products have a myriad of topical and oral applications
that make it incredibly versatile. Nature's all purpose drug.
15. The only honey that exists in my world is raw, organic unfiltered honey. To pasteurize
honey is to ruin the work of thousands of bees. You are literally a war criminal.
16. Everyone raves about Manuka honey, but the real ones have tried Jarrah. If you know, you
know.
17. Honey is one of the best hydration sources in the world. Honey > Pre Workout.
18. Honey is nature's moisturizer. |

18. Honey is nature's moisturizer.
19. Royal jelly is a special compound that worker bees secret; so potent it can transform an
ordinary bee into a queen bee. It's like a concentrated, supercharged version of honey.
20. The honey bee is a crucial part of our ecosystem. Without their help, over a third of all
food eaten in America wouldn't exist.
21. Honey should be a key ingredient in shampoos. Cleopatra did it. Why shouldn't we?
22. Bees communicate with other bees by dancing. That's how they signal where the best flowers
are. Seems familiar...
23. Honey is a source of flavanoids and phenolic acids — antioxidants which have been studied
to have incredible anti-inflammatory and even anti-cancer properties.
24. The hexagonal shape of honeycomb cells is a MARVEL. How did they know to use hexagons?
Hexagons are the most efficient shape to store the maximum amount of honey with the least
amount of wax needed to build. Geniuses.
To the anti-honey community:
When we eat honey we are NOT stealing from bees. It's a symbiotic relationship. We protect them
from the harsh conditions of nature, giving them a safe space to have their fun and make their
vomit.
They are so happy that they usually produce more honey than they could ever physically consume.
By consuming their excess honey, we are actually helping them restore balance in the hive.
So yes people, eat more honey. Buy all the varieties. Gift it to everyone around you. And
always remember to give thanks to our wonderful striped yellow friends

Cabo Fish Report
April 20-26, 2009
WEATHER: There were a few clouds in the sky this week but for the most part we had sunny and clear skies. It feels as if summer is fast approaching as our daytime temperatures have been a few degrees warmer every week, this week we averaged 88 degrees in the daytime and 71 degrees in the mornings. I almost turned on the air conditioning last night, but then thought better of it, after all, that stuff costs a lot of money and I turned on the floor fan instead!
WATER: We had light winds at the beginning of the week and they picked up quite a bit on Thursday, by the weekend they had died back down. The winds were our typical northwest winds and they kicked up the swells and waves for a couple of days. By the end of the week things had calmed down. On the Cortez side of the Cape things were a bit calmer since the wind did not shift very much and the swells stayed small with just a light wind chop. There was a very defined current line running from the tip of the Cape to the south-southeast where the western side was a cool 64-67 degrees and the eastern side was 70-71 degrees. The cool water was in a band about 10 miles wide 30 miles to the south and the distance between the cool water and the warm water was one mile. On Saturday there was an 81-degree hot spot on the surface that ran between the 1150 and the Cabrilla Seamount.
BAIT: Once again it was a mix of Caballito and Mackerel at $3 per bait and the Sardinas were hard to come by here in Cabo. The little guys were hard to get in San Jose as well; you had to be early to get a shot at these baits.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: The warm spot of water between the 1150 and the Cabrilla Seamount was expected to give up a couple of Blues or Blacks but failed to produce much of anything at all other than a couple of Dorado. A few boats were able to scratch up one, two, or in a few instances, three Striped Marlin while working between the shore and the 95 Spot. There were a few tailing fish sighted on the Cortez side but the kudos went to the guys who were willing to use their electronics to spot fish down at 100-150 feet and drop bait to them.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: We had a couple of good days of fishing for football Tuna in the 5-15 pound class in the middle of the week. The fish were with a large pod of dolphin on the Pacific side just to the south of the San Jaime Banks. When the wind picked up on Thursday the fish were more difficult to find. When they were biting earlier I had no problem getting limits for my guys as we were covered up five times and had multiple hook-ups every pass. Small feathers or lures in the 4-5 inch size and in red or black were the ticket as the Tuna were feeding on small squid. There were also dolphin that had fish to the south, but once again at a distance of 25 miles and they were football fish.
DORADO: This week was a repeat of last week, and it of the week before. Just like last week, once again it was a case of scattered fish. Almost every boat was able to get a Dorado this week, and a few boats managed to get three or four. The warm water on the Cortez side produced most of the fish and the best area was three to five miles off the beach, the same area that held most of the Striped Marlin.
WAHOO: I did not hear of any Wahoo this week.
INSHORE: Just like last week, the bite is still on for Sierra and Yellowtail, its decent for Amberjack and Pargo and there are a few Grouper to add to the mix. The Yellowtail were up around Los Arcos on the Pacific side and the Sierra were on the Cortez side of the Cape. When the winds blew hard in the middle of the week the water really greened up on the Pacific coast and most of the action moved to the Cortez side.
NOTES: Thank you for all the replies about my questions on Sun River last week, they helped me a lot. Denny, I look forward to hearing from you when you come down. Another game of golf planned for this week and perhaps some time on the water as well. This weeks report was written to the music of the birds on the Legends of Golf tournament in Savannah playing on the TV! Until next week, tight lines!
