Oh, ants.

The thing about living in California is... lot of bugs.  The biggest pest of them all is... ANTS.  Most of the time it's hard to see where they're coming in, but fortunately we can see exactly where they're coming in this time.  Right through the back door.  It wasn't properly sealed on the bottom, and you can pretty much see right outside... and the ants come in from time to time.  Well, one night the girls and I made blond brownies, and I spilled some sugar on the floor and counter.  I thought I cleaned it all up, but I guess not.  And the smell of the sugar just call to our little ant friends.  So, in the morning when I went to make skinnies for the girls, this is what I found in the sugar container.  And there was a trail of them all down the wall and out the back door.  :)
