to which I will add the honey people at the farm market told me that beeswax is supposed to be superlative for preparing a baking sheet for cookie dough! I haven't tried that though. They had huge cake-size (as in birthday cake) slabs of beeswax for sale. The scent was heavenly, but at that size too much and too costly for using for little dibs for lacemaking. I remember buying big blocks of beeswax from a little farm that kept bees for about 5$ each, maybe fifteen years ago. Now that place is gone. Not only that, but the bees too, apparently, around the world, are disappearing, so the price of beeswax is likely to skyrocket (though that's only peripheral to the real problem, whatever is causing the decline)... See, e.g., _http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/gate/archive/2007/05/09/notes050907. DTL&nl=fix_ (http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/gate/archive/2007/05/09/notes050907.DTL&nl=fix) Well, I digress, but before I go back to minding my own beeswax, I'll just say it's probably best to buy your beeswax now! Someday it will probably be worth its weight in gold!
