But I'm also going to tell you about about sugar scrub and a sweet Etsy friend named Janell, so hopefully this will give my post some redemptive qualities.
Here's what happened. . .
Nat likes Janell.

Janell starts selling sugar scrubs in her shop.

And I thought we had a lot of sugar ants in our kitchen! Maybe that's why they're called that. Next time, you should try a sea salt scrub and see if that keeps the ants away. :)
I love your stories! We had those ants every where in Africa. A trail of them could be found stretching from a back bedroom to somewhere in the kitchen. Amazing!
What are you talking about??? This is not an "I'm running out of things to talk about" post. This was brilliant!!! Oh how I remember those retched ants!!! Thanks girl this one made me laugh:)
LOL. I'll never forget the ants. What a funny reminder of the days at school. Thanks!
Ahhh I hate those aunts. When we came home from our 3 week vactation...we had aunts everywhere!!! We even sprayed before we left too!
I love it! too funny!
Our house is being invaded, too. The ants love my loveseat, for some reason. And I just washed the slipcover last week!
This was such a funny post! Luckily we don't really have an ant problem here but my husband went on a mission to Jamaica and said they were horrible there. He says they sprinkled baking soda along the doorway and wall (wherever they were getting in) and they wouldn't pass the baking soda line. Anyway, good luck with the ants!
Hahaha. How I sympathize with you. Why were we not warned that our homes were built on GYNORMOUS ant hills? I'm not even going to offer you any advice on ridding your home of them, because I know from first-hand experience that nothing short of filling your home with, and exposing your children to all forms of chemical pesticides will work.

Oh dear! I also love sugar scrubs. I had a similar business to your friend back in 2001-2003.
Good luck with the ant thing. It's a constant battle around here too but at least we don't live in an area with cockroaches! Ants aren't bad at all when you consider the potential alternatives.
Oh no! Sophie ate the sugar scrub?!! I'm sure she'll be okay, there's a teeeeeeeny tiny bit of preservative, but other than that its about 99% natural otherwise. And the ants... Oy!
Hope you get rid of them soon, that would make me crazy!
Thanks for the mention sweetie!
