Amandaisms

One of Amanda's friends noticed my ant farm sitting in the window. We had a brief conversation about why there weren't any ants in it currently, culminating in me explaining that one of these days I was going to dig around in the yard to try to find a queen ant to put in my farm, and then I would add workers.

Amanda: Well, why don't you just leave an empty honeycomb in the yard; it will attract them, and they will want to move into it, and then catch them that way?

Me: A honeycomb?

A: Yeah. Well, not like the cereal, but a real honeycomb.

M: (trying not to lol at the cereal) A honeycomb? They aren't BEES, Amanda.

A: Oh!! Yeah... that's right. It's bees that do honey, not ants.

M: (still trying not to lol) Yep...
