Bee kind

Yesterday Chris got his new Newsweek and as is the custom in our house, the minute we get a publication the first thing we do is remove all of the blow-ins and other inserts which thins out our periodicals quite nicely.

One of the inserts was super cool so we kept it and plan to do as it says. It was an ad from Häagen-Daz about saving honey bees. It is a pressed page with bee-friendly wildflower seeds. You simply plant the page under a thin layer of soil in a sunny spot, water and keep moist.

I
just think it's a great idea and a wonderful way for a company to be proactive about the world environment.


Check out the website (click the honey bee heart to the left) and see how you can help the beeeeeees pleeeeease :) Winnie the Pooh would, so can you!

Oh that is a great way to do it. I love the idea but this means no you are going to have to take pics from beginning to end and blog it ALL!
