Muslim Students' Association Decorates and Donates

Pasta sauce á la Mo

The Bee's Knees: The Prohibition-era classic cocktail

By Emily Williams | March 13, 2018

When the phrase "the bee's knees" was coined -- more than a century before this cocktail's invention -- it referred to something small or insignificant. By the 1920s, however, the phase joined the company of several other zoological expressions meaning "the best" (see also: the cat's pajamas, the eel's ankle, the capybara's spats).
