Had a major craving for a Chicken Delight from The Penalty Box.
Everything was super fresh and delicious as always. Not pictured: the gravy I practically drank right out of the container 🤤

Tuesday thought - bees 🐝 in the spring
Spring is right around the corner. Birds are chirping and temperatures are rising. We know what’s going on around us, but what is going on in the honeybee colony when this exciting new time blooms?
Activities that occur in the colony vary with the seasons, and spring is the most important time of the year for honeybees. The bees have survived the cold winter months by living off their storage of honey from the previous year. They now are in need of a new supply.
The first action of business for the colony as the weather changes is increasing its population in advance of summer’s warmth. Spring is the busiest time of year for the bees, not only because of restocking food but it’s also the season when new colonies are started and established colonies re-emerge.
This is also the queen’s mating and egg production season. The eggs are laid in the individual cells of the hive to form larvae. Within three weeks the colony begins to grow quickly.
Not quite here yet but the bees are active and getting ready.
What do you like to do in the spring?
