Excited

 Before.

After! 

All clean and shiny! Just like magic.  the secret ingredient is Elbow grease. Now to re-line and re-load the cupboards.  And then go into baking frenzy for Knitting on Saturday.  Our theme is "New Leaf."  I'll use china with green tones in it, and maybe bring in a few leafy twigs.  Raspberry cake with sliced canned peaches (Peaches and raspberries work in that Australia dessert - Peach Nellie.)  Tamara is bringing cookies.  I'll make deviled Eggs, because everyone like them. Don't know what for fresh fruit yet.  Any suggestions?  And maybe scones to make the house smell good on Saturday morning.  Butter and jam, but no honey.  Ants got in through the screw top jar and drowned.  The top of the honey is speckled with honied ants.  I scrpaed most of them out, and will not share honey till the rest are gone.  I don't mind a few dead ants in my tea, but I wouldn't expect my guests to be quite so adventurous.

Drowning in honey.  There's an image!  Maybe that's what happens to people who get too much too easily.
