We are under attack by Asian Lady Beetles!
They look like ladybugs, only they attack and spray smelly blood at you when you get near! Well, they don't necessarily attack you, but they attack your house, and when you try to get them, they leave their smelly blood trail. Ew! We get them every year on the south side of our house. We had so many, I decided to make a pie out of them...
Do you think a Asian Lady Beetle pie would go over very well on Thanksgiving? Probably not.We made our first apple pie of the baking season, and since pies are only good for a couple days after they're baked, I made sure it didn't go to waste. I really don't know if it's possible for me to bake something and give it away. I have to make sure it tastes okay, and then I can't leave any jaggedy edges. =)
We are starting to give the kids allowance for the chores they do, so I marked on our calendar that every Friday the kids will get their allowance. Brock woke up one morning, scooched the chair over to the fridge, and drew circles all over the calendar. He said that the circles were the days that they get allowance. I knew kids were expensive, but did we get the most expensive ones?
