Did I mention the mouse? While we were trying to clean all the beeswax to make candles and lip balm, and before the bees and ants attempted to rob us, there was the mouse. Nothing quite says adventure like being bent over a hot stove, slowly squeezing hot wax through cheesecloth, trying not to burn yourself, and having a cute little mouse popping out from under the cupboards and scaring the bajeezus out of you. This happened not just once, but several times to the point we were just about the jumpiest people you had ever met. I had no clue this would be such an adventure. I was so drained from the day I went to bed an hour early. Sorry hubby, but I am tapping out.
