Buzzz……. it’s almost Valentine’s Day! If you have a sweetheart, it is time to start planning a lovely day or night in or out. Little Giant Beekeepers has a few ideas that involve a couple of our favorite things – bees and honey!
Some people dislike dining out on Valentine ’s Day due to overpriced prix fix meals and the large crowds. Many peeps would rather stay home and cook with their honey. But on a night like Valentine’s Day just a regular meal won’t cut it – you need something special, so bring on the honey. How about The Splendid Tables, Black Pepper Honey Steak? The sugar in the honey creates a perfect crust on the outside and yields a tender and delicious inside. The sweet and salty flavors meld for a great grilling combination.
Spend more time heating things up in the kitchen and make date night a cooking night with these Greek delicacies, loukoumades, or honey balls. Once these donut-like creations are fried, soak them in honey and cover in chopped walnuts. They may be a challenge to make, but that’s part of the date fun!
Flowers, chocolate, what about bees? Bee designs are making a buzz right now and why not incorporate some into your gift equation? Etsy is a great resource for adorable bee necklaces. Some motifs never go out of style! From the delicate to the ornate, there is one to fit anyone’s style and budget. Looking for a high-end version? Let’s not forget the one that comes in a little blue box. This piece of jewelry will be sure to become a family heirloom.
A couple that plays together stays together! How about starting a new hobby you both can enjoy? Beekeeping is a hobby that is good for you and the environment. And every one looks good in a beekeeper suit- right? Believe it not all you really need to get started is a backyard and some patience.
Another fun gift with buzz is a jacquard bee tie. Bees are having a design moment. This regal tie is both fun and elegant. Pair it with a slim fit black suit and you are ready to roll. Here is another more expensive version by none other than Gucci.
Let’s not forget the kids’ valentines! Pinterest it up a bit this year! Parents get tired of all the sugar that comes home, so how about something more natural? How about giving individual honey sticks with a sweet note attached, “Bee My Valentine.” The free printable is here. You can find honey sticks at home good stores or on Amazon.
Of course, we love bees and honey at Little Giant Beekeepers! We also know people do not want them residing in their house.
