The Opposite of Boric Acid Is Pie
Jackie: Word to the wise: don't ever, EVER, leave a loosely-covered piece of pie in a dish on the window sill.
me: hahahahaha, gracie?
Jackie: no -- much much worse
the entire piece of pie and the entire pie plate was absolutely pitch black....
with 10,000 ants
me: oh my god.
Jackie: I have never, ever, seen that many ants. If I wasn't immediately hysterical, i would have gotten the camera
me: WHY did you leave it on a windowsill?
Jackie: well it has been there a few days with no problem. I put it up on the windowsill so as not to leave it on the counter where Gracie could get it...I guess in the future I should put it in the fridge instead.
me: the ants were inside the house?
Jackie: yes, not surprising, they are the teeny-tiny ones, we do get them seasonally, we usually put down boric acid powder around the place and it keeps them under control
but not when you feed them with pie, apparently
me: now we know that the opposite of boric acid is pie
***Sarah's mom is the best. On a side note, I get hysterical when I see ants too because one usually means there's a line of 10,000, thus commencing my afternoon killing rampage.
