Bugs.

Sometimes I feel like I have nothing interesting to write about.
This weekend I played in a wheelchair basketball tournament with my coworkers. It was a fundraiser to support wheelchair sports. It was really difficult, but a LOT of fun.

And now for---Tuesday morning random thoughts...

We have no Easter decor.

I made muffins.

I really need to go to the Old State Pen for a school assignment that I have procrastinated. (But it's raining...)

Ammon is doing homework.

Liz Perry (my best friend) passed through Boise yesterday and was able to come by our place and visit. :)

I have two tests this week.

Ammon won't let me get a baby chick.

I am starting my garden very soon. (Like, this weekend if it isn't raining)

Our sun room is STILL full of junk. We have been saying we'll clean it since January.

I love muffins.

I entered to win a trip to London. Hahaha.

The muffins are done!!!

We go to my parents' house on Tuesday evenings. I enjoy that.

Ammon has three swords, a blow dart gun, throwing stars, and other such weapons. He gets his own weapon cupboard.

We're out of ice cream.

Last night we watched a movie. Sometimes really cool movies are ruined unnecessarily by crap.

I should clean the kitchen.

OH that reminds me... I have a story of the worst experience of my married life (and in the top ten of my entire life). It all begins with noodles:

I was boiling some noodles last Sunday for dinner when I noticed some brown flecks in the water. I spooned one out and much to my dismay...a bug. They were, in fact, weevil larvae. I had already been feeling nauseous, and this threw me over the edge. Everything went downhill from there. After getting myself together (took a couple hours) I finally had the nerve to check out the pantry. Bummer, there were more. Ammon and I were both completely disgusted and freaked out. I researched a bit on how to exterminate. We decided it would be a better project for Monday and went to bed completely uneasy, skin crawling. After work on Monday, I put on my game face, said a prayer, put on my headlight, and got to work. Awful. Awful. Awful. Yes, the weevils had traveled to every shelf in the pantry. I believe they originated from a big box of oatmeal that Ammon had brought from his old house because that is where I found the most larvae. I removed EVERYTHING from the pantry, washed EVERYTHING with bleach, threw anything away that I wasn't sure about, and put everything else in the freezer for 4 days. I vacummed every corner of the pantry
(Oh, by the way, we have a huge pantry. I LOVED it before this experience). I sprayed bleach all over and wiped everything down.
Anyway, we are weevil free. At least we had better be because I can't deal with that again. Here is what I recommend...
-Don't leave anything unopened in your pantry (especially grains).
-Put bay leaves throughout your pantry and in containers of flour, rice, and sugar.
-Don't put anything in your pantry that has been sitting in the garage or outside.
-If you see a beetle or a larvae anywhere in your food or pantry, don't be lax about it. FREAK OUT.
Needless to say, we ate out all week. I finally cooked again the following Sunday. Weevils are expensive.

That's all. Now, go clean your pantry! :)
