Don't Eat in the Dark!

This summer my mom and I have spent our Thursday nights at the Pleasant Grove Promenade sharing the oils with people. It is like the Freedom festival in Provo where a lot of people have booths and food and people come and hang out and have a good time.  Last night my dad brought us some brownies, but because of my braces I didn't want to eat them and then risk talking to people with brownies all in my teeth so we covered them and set them by a tree behind our booth (big mistake). When the promenade ended that night my mom and I started to eat our brownies while we were cleaning up. My mom finished hers and as I was eating mine I had a couple of sharp pains in my mouth. I thought I had broke a bracket or a wire or something. I then noticed that there were ants all over the table that were cleaning up. I grabbed a light and looked closer and that is when I realized that the ants were also all over the BROWNIES!!!!! And the pain I was feeling were the ants BITING ME!!! I was EATING ANTS!!! Luckily I had only ate a couple of bites. My poor mom had finished her entire brownie without noticing anything. My dad kept telling us that it was good protein, but I disagree. I do not enjoy biting protein. Obviously I freaked out because not only were there ants in my mouth biting me, but I was worried that they were stuck in my braces. Whenever I eat I always ask somebody if there is any food in my teeth, but it was a first when I turned to my mom and asked if there were any ANTS in my teeth! Yep, pretty traumatized, and it wasn't until I got home where there was more light that I found the ant that was indeed stuck in my rubber bands. EWWWWW!!!!! But although is was not a good experience I would have to agree that it was probably more traumatizing for the ants. So please don't eat in the dark!
