I am having my kitchen remodeled from floor to ceiling and I would like to have a nice little "saying" written on my wall/walls just below the ceiling in 4" letters, that concerns bees or bee related. If you know the author please include it! Thanks and have a good eve! Debbie
>Ed Weiss?!? Wow. I have his video which came with my starter set. His book was teriffic. I'm glad he's still around. Is he well?
My favorite line from his video: And as the honey flows....so does your heart flow...
I'm gonna say that everytime I extract honey!

Here are a few from the Bible.

How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Poverbs 16:24
Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones
Proverbs 24:13
My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste
Proverbs 25:16
Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee [lest thou be filled therewith, and vomit it.] (you might want to skip the last part in your kitchen. http://www.beesource.com/ubb/smile.gif
Song of Solomon 4:11
Thy lips, O my spouse, drop as the honeycomb: honey and milk are under thy tongue; and the smell of thy garments is like the smell of Lebanon.
Song of Solomon 5:1
I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse: I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk: eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved.

"Nothing is so like a soul as a bee. It goes from flower to flower as a soul from star to star, and it gathers honey as a soul gathers light."

"A swarm of bees in May
Is worth a load of hay;
a swarm of bees in June
Is worth a silver spoon;
A swarm of bees in July
Is not worth a fly."
Old English saying
Never get your honey where you get your money."
I don't think this has a thing to do with
bees-but it is a wise mans words
How about a couple of bees with a cute saying like "leave no flower untouched" or "so many flowers,so little time"
