I was looking around & I couldn't find anything, does anyone know what the next generation of bees will be or will be posted? Just curious :)
I'm not sure- I think it would be pretty soon. Most of the jungle animals or safari generation or whatever are getting married here in the next 2-3 months, so I imagine they'll have to introduce a new generation to fill in when they go.
I was doing some archive snooping and found that the last safari animal handle (Miss Prairie Dog) was introduced about 48 hours before the brunch generation was introduced. So, depending on how swiftly things move along here with the 2 remaining brunchies, we may have a new generation to look forward to in the next few days/weeks!
I also noticed that the safari generation had 2 handles that went unclaimed... Miss Hyena and another one I can't recall at the moment. I wonder what leads WB to make the decision to scrap those handles and move on to the next generation. If they have a general policy of nixing the last 1 or 2 unclaimed ones, then a new generation may be right around the corner. Can't wait to see what it is!
LOL I can believe the Hyena went unclaimed. Who wants to be the hyena??
@JillBill: That's an interesting pattern - I've never noticed that before and I love when new generations are introduced! To my knowledge, icons from past generations are actually available to new bees, even if we have introduced to new generations, just sometimes I guess people want the new ones! There are still icons from safari, brunch, accessories, and even puppies! I have a feeling the new generation is coming soon but I don't know when - I love to see them revealed!
Yeah, Hermit Crab is right. They don't scrap old handles, they're always available. For example, when Mrs. (then Miss) Husky was introduced, there had been like 5 generations announced since the dogs.
I'm also fairly sure that the scheduling has to do with how long it takes for the little illustrations to be completed.
And you can see the generations and what's still available here:
maybe it's because I'm more actively involved in following this generation, but it seems like the brunch generation has been around for a long while... while I love all of the handles and the new bloggers, I'm itching for the new ones to swoon over :)
Each illustration is original art made by the amazing Irene Chan!

So we can't just walk away from unused icons... they each cost money to commission! :-)
Can't believe Gazelle & Hyena aren't taken yet - come join the safari fun, people! ;)
Hyena would be so cool! Great for anyone who laughs all the time like I do. :)
I just updated the wiki with the current list of brunch bees. Looks like a total of 7 icons are still up for grabs.
I'm swooning over the Miss Scone title. I bake scones all the time. Blueberry scones, to be exact, since I am head over heels for blueberries. I love the brunch generation and can't wait to see what's next.
@canadianbacon: I do love me some scones! That & pain au chocolat would be my picks, if I were doing it all over again.. but I love my little Jaguar. :)
I am super curious as to what the next generation will be too! :D
Drinks would be a cute generation. Perhaps not the best message to send, but I can totally picture some awesome 'Bee names and graphics for Miss Martini, Miss Bellini and Miss Mojito.
@canadianbacon:It's such a good idea that they have already had a beverages generation!! http://wiki.weddingbee.com/Weddingbee#Beverages
Hahaha, sorry. I love scones! Below is my fave scone recipe for anyone who wants to make some scones.They're Meyer lemon and blueberry scones.

@ohheavenlyday: I'd totally have been Mrs. Hyena because I can have a terrible laugh.
@hermitcrab: Shoot, HC, you're right! I was thinking all adult beverages. :) I'm not sure how I could have forgotten the drink ladies, given the fact that Lemonade and Pinot Noir were some of my faves!
I'm new and I'm so confused about what this thread is about...can you explain? Thanks :)
@BluegrassBridetoBee: It's about the blogging Bees. To be a blogging Bee, you have to blog, apply, and be accepted. The rest of us use the threads, but read the blogs, which are on the front page of the site. It took me forever to realize that I could just start blogging when I found the Bee.
From my informal check I think the following icons for long ago generations might still be available:
Lipstick
Smoothie/pina colada
Watermelon
Banana
Persimmon
Papaya (used as an April Fools gag introduction, does that count?)
Carrot
These are drawn icons from previous generations that haven't been used (from what I could tell). I am guessing that the gems (amethyst, aquamarine, emerald, pearl, ruby, peridot, sapphire, and citrine) were never commissioned to be drawn? [saw the post asking for people to draw them].
@SBourgeous: It used to be a lot more active, but unfortunately it has not been working recently. It is an opportunity for a live chat with one of the blogging Bees. As soon as it's working, I'm sure many Bees will be live again!
@hermitcrab: Was JUST talking about BeeTV with Avocado (aka ThatWife) the other night.. She did a live chat on TinyChat and it was super fun!
How about a Bee's European Tour?
Miss London, Miss Dublin, Miss Paris, Miss Berlin, Miss Rome, Miss Amsterdam, Miss Madrid, Miss Athens, Miss Prague, Miss Vienna, Miss Zurich, Miss Brussels, Miss Istanbul, Miss Oslo, Miss Copenhagen, Miss Stockholm, Miss Helsinki?
Okay, those are all I remember from 11th grade World Culture's class
@Rubies: That would be fun! I like the idea of travel/cities. I wonder what they're going to be!
I am so confused I dont think I am reading all of your post's right.. i did have a question how do you chance your name like i see some bees have like Miss ... and there icon how does that work or is that everyone is talking about...
PLEASE HELP IM CONFUSED HAHA
@Rubies: Thats brilliant!
If I ever apply to be a Bee I would totally snap up Ms London :D
@helenberrycrunch: I concur- also I could totally see the images for those....major monuments or something!
@Rubies: Great idea! I would go for either Miss Sydney (obviously, hehe), Miss London (since we lived there & called it home for three years) OR Miss Prague (since that's where Mr. Jag popped the question.) The icons would be to die for!
