    This sounds like an instant classic 3 Bird. What a great lyric. I guess this can be applied to many things that are adulterated and diluted for mass consumption. I love bees, well I love nature in general, wasps, snails, spiders et al. They are all welcome in my garden and house. Sadly though, honey is something that I’ve never really liked, I don’t know why.

    • @Threebird-vj9zu
      @Threebird-vj9zu 9 дней назад

      Thanks, I appreciate the comments! Ironically, I have virtually limitless access to "free" honey and rarely use it. It baffles me because I am very frugal, prefer local & natural products and foods that aren't highly processed - so I should be using a lot more honey instead of buying sugar. I don't dislike it, it just isn't what I reach for as a sweetener (I use it more in cooking and making soap).

    • @Threebird-vj9zu
      @Threebird-vj9zu 11 дней назад

      Thank-you! Here is the first bit of what Google's AI says..."Honey laundering is a type of food fraud that occurs when honey is adulterated with cheaper ingredients to increase its value or reduce production costs. This can involve mixing in syrups from corn, rice, cane, or sugar beets." (and commonly blending in cheaper honeys of unlabelled origin).

      If anyone on UU had heard of Bailey Kate before I would be surprised, she's a local. I am beginning to try and cover a song from various artists that reside along the Crowsnest Highway (Shaela Miller was the first). Why that highway? My avatar is part of the highway sign, and in Alberta, to align with their cowboy marketing, they call all the highways "trails". So I started (and am probably the only one) calling the Crowsnest Hwy the Threebird Trail, and now it seems fitting to give some attention to musicians along the route since I adopted the name for my channel.

      Thanks for noticing, I just picked the strap up on the weekend. It's a Paw Prints by Jodi Head, with Paw Prints being a 100% vegan line of straps. I've been keeping half an eye out for a strap for a while, and this one got me with its vintage vibes! As for using a strap period - this seems to be a controversial topic in uke circles, I am pro-strap because it allows me to multi-task easier between songs, and it makes playing cleanly much easier (in my opinion).
