Save the Honey Bees!

I like to read cooking magazines. they give me recipes to try out with full colored pictures so I know what the end result is supposed to be. anyway, did you know that HONEY BEES are in danger of becoming endanger??

In 24 states throughout the country, beekeepers have gone through similar shocks as their bees have been disappearing inexplicably at an alarming rate, threatening not only their livelihoods but also the production of numerous crops, including California almonds, one of the nation’s most profitable. - from the new york times.

how much does one bee make in its lifetime? 1/12 of a teaspoon. and while no on knows for sure what is causing the bees to drop like flies, theres research going on and you can help!

Haagen-Dazs loves Honey Bees--and they have a new flavor, Vanilla Honey Bee Ice Cream and proceeds go to helping the honey bees. Saving the world by eating ice cream, that I can do haha.

speaking of which, on May 13 they are sampling out the ice cream at the Haagen Dazs in La Jolla from 4-8pm!! =D so go get yours.
