My father-in-law shared this breaking news from the Associated Press last night: A Bakersfield, Calif., airport was temporarily shut down Tuesday after officials said a passenger’s luggage tested positive for TNT. The suspicious material turned out to five bottles filled with honey.
I’m pretty sure that none of Tom’s bee-loved honey in cute bears with scarves were imitating terrorist activity … hopefully!
One of the delights of having kids in college (other than paying tuition and a bazillion dollars for a text book that’s outdated in three weeks) is the friends they make and bring home. Faithful blob readers may recall seeing Bec’s friend Dov, from the University of Michigan, in his bee-shirt. Dov had picked up a few more for friends and family.
Dov was recently in Tel Aviv, and shared this report: “my aunt from Hertzliya sent my 12 year old cousin, Nuri, to visit me for a few hours. He got out of the taxi and lo and behold, this is what he was wearing.”
Thanks Dov! That was wonderful to see — both the happy young lad in sunshine and sand, and that the magic of Tom’s bees continues to work its way around the world.

Hi, Charlotte!
Hope you doing well after the holidays.
Just wanted you to know that I immediatly thought of you and your bees when I heard this story! I had visions of some of your little bears with their scarves on being lined up and inspected. It made me smile. And, yes, I do know I am warped.
