Bee Sting Remedy

I know this is the wrong time of year, for many, to worry about bee stings; but, I thought I'd include it anyway. Actually, Christina was just stung by a bee the day of our first snow - about three weeks ago.

Bee Sting Remedy: place honey on it. It's as simple as that and quite fast too!

I learned there are more than 5,000 native bees in North America - this includes bumble bees. Native bees are non aggressive because they are solitary. Which means they don't live in hives like honey bees, hornets, wasps, and the like. So, they don't have anything to protect. And, if one stings you, it's not painful.
