Beeswax Surprise
I have been wanting to make some homemade lip balm for a while. I did not have any beeswax on hand so I went to Michaels in town to get some. They carry the bricks of beeswax so I bought one. I set it on a shelf at home and a few days later decided to get it out with the rest of my ingredients to make sure that I had everything. As I was looking the beeswax over, I noticed that there were teeth marks in my wax. I was disturbed at first, but then realized that a small child in the store must have thought that it was a honeycomb and therefore decided to have a taste. Imagine his or her surprise when they bit into the waxy, unpleasant substance. The more I thought about it, the more hilarious it became to me. I have laughed and laughed about it for weeks. I still can't bring myself to make the lip balm without new beeswax and I also can't seem to get rid of the brick that I already purchased. It just makes me crack up every time I see the brick. All that to say, when I get around to making the lip balm (and if it turns out) then I will share the recipe with you.
