I was feeling rather domesticated today and decided to cook up a batch of organic cupcakes. I bought the cupcake mix last time I was out at Poachers Pantry with the girls, and justified the sweet treat with the thought that if it's organic it can't be too bad ;o)
So after popping them in the oven, I opened the fridge to get out the almost full tub of Betty Crocker Vanilla Frosting (see, I'm not that domesticated!). At first I couldn't find it, but after some hunting, there it was, riiiiiiiiiiiight up the back behind the leftovers, the cheeses and the barn laid hen eggs (I'm hoping there aren't cages IN the barns!)
Anyhow, after a colossal hunt to find it, I was shocked upon opening it to discover that we have weevils in our fridge!
I promptly rang Hunky Hubby to tell him of my discovery:
ME: Honey, I think we have weevils!
HH: What do you mean, weevils? What are they!
Me: They're little bugs that eat food. They're in the fridge!
HH: What!??
Me: Yes, but it's most strange. They only targeted the tub of Betty Crocker Icing! You know the sweet vanilla one that you like so much?
HH: Ahhhhh, yes. Those weevils are evil you know!
Me: The amazing thing is, they were very crafty with their nibbling. You see they have ever so carefully eaten layer after layer of the icing, leaving a thin scraping in the bottom to give the APPEARANCE of there actually being icing left. Very crafty indeed.
Now I don't feel so bad about the fact that I've made cupcakes - at least I didn't eat a whole tub of icing and try to hide it!
