"Mommy, I have ants on my graham crackers!"

And you look, and yes, there are very teeny-tiny ants the exact same color as the cracker ON that cracker. And the others you gave your child. And as you look in the package they are in there. And as you look on the baby's crackers, they are on them. You're able to find a few ant free crackers to give to the now screaming baby (because you TOOK AWAY HIS SNACK!) and try not to be too grossed out, since the silly child won't listen to reason.  And some things are worth the silence. 

And you go investigate the cupboard. And find more ants. And ants in all your other boxes of crackers (and discovered you had WAY too many crackers). And in a box of stuffing. So far the brown rice, couscous and instant mashed potatoes seem fine. But I'm watching them.  And trying not to be too grossed out.  Because I HATE ants.
