Let me tell you a good book I read this weekend…

I picked up this little gem called Bees Make the Best Pets by , and honestly, it felt like sitting on a porch with someone who’s lived long enough with bees to start picking up their manners.

It’s not a manual. It’s not a lecture.
It’s more like a beekeeper‑grandpa whispering secrets about the hive between sips of coffee.

You get these tiny stories the kind you’d only know if you’d spent years watching bees do their thing mixed with weird history, odd facts, and the kind of humor that sneaks up on you. One minute you’re learning why honey changes color, the next you’re hearing about bees in the Civil War, and then suddenly you’re nodding along like, “Yeah… bees really would make better pets than half the animals we keep.”

What stuck with me most is how Mingo writes about bees like they’re tiny, winged coworkers:
resilient, collaborative, generous, and somehow still sweet after all that work.

It’s the kind of book that makes you look at your hive differently, like you’ve been let in on an inside joke nature’s been telling for thousands of years.

TO EVERYONE FREAKING OUT ABOUT THE TINY LITTLE MIDGES IN CLEVELAND:

Midges just hatched along the Lake Erie shoreline! yes, the same cloud of little bugs we get every year. They’re smaller than mayflies, they show up when the surface water temperature hits about 60°F, and they’re completely harmless. They don’t bite, they don’t sting, and they only live about 5–10 days.

Cleveland usually sees these swarms in late May through July, and again in the fall when the lake cools back down to around 60°. They can definitely be annoying, but midges (and fishflies) are actually a sign of a healthy Lake Erie ecosystem. They’re an important food source for fish, birds, and pretty much everything that lives around the lake.

So if you’re seeing clouds of tiny bugs downtown, on the Shoreway, in Edgewater, Gordon Park, Euclid, or anywhere along the water.......congratulations, Lake Erie is doing its thing.
