Crochet-based punning

Buying the papers this morning I was distracted by the cover of Better Homes and Gardens and its headline BE A HOOKER. I must admit that I've never actually read this publication, but my impression of it has always been that it's full of cheap and cheerful DIY projects, so this seemed to be an unlikely move into Cosmo territory. All became clear, however, reading the next line CROCHET IS BACK!. One has to imagine a group of editors sitting around giggling about that.
I get the Office Letter sent to my work email, and in today's edition was a cracker of an Office tip. In the last edition, there was a reminder about using Windows + E to open Windows Explorer, and today someone has written in with an alternative easy solution to opening Windows Explorer: simply create a shortcut with the following path: "%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /n, /e, /select, c:". Oh yes, that's much easier than pressing Windows + E.
And finally: March Meme Madness!
Day 2: 2 out of 3
Of the following three statements about me, two are true and one is a bare-faced lie. You, dear reader, have the task of guessing which is which.
1. I find that there's something off-putting about cooked orange vegetables and so refuse to eat them.
2. I write a personal journal entry each day in haiku.
3. I was once caught in a swarm of bees.
Which one is a fib?
