Yesterday morning, I had planned to sort everything for the yard sale Dave and I are having next weekend. Unfortunately, the ants that have been a nuisance lately had discovered both my baking cabinet and my tea cabinet overnight.
So instead of pricing all of the extra furniture and duplicate small appliances from when we
combined our stuff back in December, I was carrying several cabinets' worth of food and storage items out to the already over-cluttered dining room. While I'm working up the motivation to climb up on my counters to scrub the cabinet shelves with
vinegar water, I have a mountain on top of my dining room table... *sigh*

Stupid ants!And yes, those are freshly-baked lemon poppy seed muffins on the table! Why else would I have been in my baking cabinet to find my unwelcome visitors on a Saturday morning? Luckily I have learned to seal up pretty much everything from past ant invasions, but it's still a pain to clear everything out and squish all of the stubborn insects.
