For me, the morning is usually an annoying time, because I'm processing waking up, waiting for that first sip of coffee before I speak to anyone, and breakfast time is close by. The clock ticks, and before I know it I need to eat something. As someone who was never too keen on breakfast, I try to eat something just to stay energized, because I know how important both nutrition and energy really is for us humans. Breakfast is a bore to me, A. because it's the morning, and B. because it's not dinner (aka my favorite of the three meals!). Still however, I make sure to eat something, and that something must have flavor. I'm far from a kitchen magician, but for my next culinary trick, I'm going to use Beezy Beez Honey to make a breakfast that is worth the appetite! 

When I was a kid and going to elementary school every day, breakfast was routine and I had gotten used to it. I preferred frozen Eggo waffles and pancakes, and Lucky Charms- because what child wants to eat Raisin Bran? I remember a time when I was 7 and having breakfast on a Saturday morning before my family and I left for a trip to the zoo. I dropped a pancake on the floor, only for my dog to eat it whole, syrup included! That is a story I'll never stop telling, and it still makes me laugh whenever I think about that memory. 

This morning I plugged in my toaster and took out two slices of white bread to toast until the edges were crispy. I put the toast on a glass plate and sliced the two slices in half, giving me four slices to spread New York Raw Honey. I began to lather the toast with honey, and had a side of raspberries. Fresh fruit is so good to eat, even when you aren't 100% hungry. I know how refreshing it tastes, especially when mixed berries are topped upon a cup of plain tart yogurt. Maybe if you like, you can add some quinoa or granola as the finishing touches to your homemade parfait. A simple breakfast is a good breakfast. 

Incorporating size into making breakfast more appetizing has only made mornings easier, and because I am not breakfast's number one fan, I try to make the process of preparation quick and easy, finding foods that I will enjoy eating. I might eat small breakfasts, but I like to save seconds for when it's dinner time.

There is wide knowledge about the benefits of raw honey such as Beezy Beez, but there are many things you probably do not know about bees, honey, and the work bees do in between the production off honey. These Five Fun Facts will surprise you, as well as make great story time the next time you go out and buy a jar of honey.

1. Honey is a preservative. Yes, while the sweet golden liquid of nature is best known for healing wounds and being a nutritious snack, for many years honey has been used as a preservative to preserve the quality of fruits and other perishable items, keeping them fresh longer without the risk of food spoiling, as fruits and vegetables spoil quickly when not stored correctly.

2. Honey bees understand adapting to survive, and in the winter, the bees form in a cluster, and vibrate n unison to help each other survive. This allows them to form a safe spot for the Queen bee as well as the brood bees. They work together to protect one another from the harsh temperature of the Winter season.

3. Honey comes in a variety of flavors, in a wide range from sweet to spicy to floral to fruity, depending on the type of flowers visited by the bees.

4. Honey has an eternal shelf life because it is hygroscopic, which means it absorbs moisture from surrounding air and retains it, aiding in preservation. Honey can outlast any other item in your pantry!

5. Bees are tiny, but very mighty! With their astonishing ability to travel at maximum, lengthy speeds, bees can travel for longer distances than one might assume. To produce one pound of honey, a colony would have to buzz and fly 55,000 miles!

These fun facts can create important conversations in a variety of settings, whether that be during a trip to the grocery store when buying honey, a coffee date with your best friend, or your group of students during afternoon story time. There is a lot to learn about bees and the things they do, and just how amazing they are at their job of making honey and maintaining a tidy environment. When you buy a jar of honey like Beezy Beez, you get the same liquid as in the store, but only Beezy Beez is raw and unprocessed, made with nature's help and free from the sugars and additives found in many over processed and commercialized brands of honey.
