Ants

Dear Sugar Ants,

My name is Clara Shifrin, and I will be hosting a feast tonight at about 5:30 next to my booster seat in the kitchen.  There will be Cheerios, perhaps drizzled in honey.  There will likely be peas and some scrambled eggs with cheese.  For dessert, there will be orange slices and a chocolate cookie.  Bring a friend!

If you can't come, don't worry.  I will leave lots of crumbs all around, and my mom will probably be too harried with cleaning my hands and face to bother about them right away.  Also, lots of food dribbles down my shirt.  My mom is never able to get it all, so you should be able to find little pieces of food all over the house.  If not, there's always the dirty clothes hamper.

By the way, I saw you found the sweet potato chip I left you in the garage.  You guys were all swarming over it so completely, I couldn't even tell what it was at first!

When you come to the feast tonight, watch out for my dad with his bottle of Tilex.

Your friend,
Clara

  1. I wonder if mommy remembers "The Ladybug Picnic" from Sesame Street? I know all the ant friends and neighbors at the Shifrin household appreciate Clara throwing them a picnic each and every day!
