Sting Like a Bee

You can have honeybees and killer bees, quilting bees and spelling bees. You may not know beeswax even though it may provide you with light. You may be a worker bee or Queen Bea.

Bees can do wonders with pollen and are a necessary cog in the machinations of growing fruits and vegetables. Without their input, food as we know may be just a memory.

My Nana used to sing about peas:
     I eat my peas with honey, I've done it all my life. It makes the peas taste funny, but it keeps them
     the knife.

A lot of people are allergic to bee stings. Just ask Joe Frasier what he thought of Muhammad Ali, or what Ali thought of himself:

Cartoons have their super villans:

There's a throne for the Queen Bee in "Orange is the New Black," but we've never seen it, so that's kind of lost on us. Surely, one of you all knows what that is all about?

So what's all the buzz about? Show us your bee twinchies!
