Have you ever read about the mystery of the red bees in Brooklyn? The appearance of red honey and red bees got traced back to a local Maraschino cherry manufacturer - and the many secrets he had.

Now THAT is a wild story, Scott! Thanks so much for sharing it - and for the feedback on Luxardo (my jar just arrived!).
