MamaPhunk is trying to convince me that I’m just a few chromosomes shy of having my own craft blog. She explained that the craft itch begins with the desire to construct/deconstruct something. This reminded me of the Saga of the Bees that took place at my parents home. The saga begins with a bee infestation in the eaves of their house, has my mother leaving my father at Home Depot after an argument about how to get rid of said bees and ends with the Bee Trap my father I constructed which almost made my mother’s face split.

The bees were coming in/out of a particular place near the roof so my father rigged a dryer vent hose from that place into a cardboard box which had a fan in it. Attached to the box was a trashbag. All of this was perched on a step ladder and held together with duct tape. We turned on the fan, it sucked the live bees in through the dryer vent hose, they hit the fan blades and flew into the trash bag. Let’s see if this helps:

See? I can do crafts. Nothin’ to it.
