[Image ID: Digital illustration of a home blooming barrel cactus house in a desert. A pathway of bottle cap stepping stones leads up to a small wooden front porch and door. The roof of the porch is made from an old soda can with the text “wild”. The path goes along the side of the home to a farm stand selling cactus fruit, needles, and other goods. The roof and back wall are also old cans, the back wall showing a western scene with a horse. The path follows a “water” sign pointing behind the cactus.
Second Image: Close up of the farm stand. Text painted on the stand reads “Take what ya want Pay what ya can”. There’s a white payment box with a slot with the text “Pay” and “Thanks! ]
I was stopped at a red light and I noticed his display out of the corner of my eye. He was tucked away in his truck, but his product was out in the open, catching the light in the most alluring way. I do believe it is the prettiest honey I've ever seen. It has an interesting flavor too; I would say some mild molasses undertones.
He sells at farmers' markets on occasion but said he can make just as much money sitting on corners and waiting for people like me to happen across his honey trap stand. I loved the scene of him in his truck, and he was generous enough to let me get his photo, so I won't hold it against him that he sent me into the dispensary to get cash so I could buy his goods.
I ended up with my door photo of the day too, because the dispensary's entrance was quite fun. All in all, a good 15 minutes spent in south OKC, which was the result of me doing nothing more than stopping at a red light. Granted this all went down at the pot store, but that can't be helped. Those are popping up like, well, weeds.

So early this morning I drove way out to farm country and met a lady by the side of the road to purchase these two beauties. Totally worth it. I’m going to call them Country Molly and Emily. Maybe they need to hang out at Kit’s farm stand?
