Mrs. Danalan is an artist. She’s in the back room working on some project, and she called out to me :
(Mrs) “We’ll have to pick up some bags apples and oranges tomorrow, before we go over town”
(Danalan) “What do we need the fruit for?”
(Mrs) “They’re for the ants to crawl on, in the bowls”
(Danalan) “Of course, what was I thinking?”
???
She’s making table decorations for a fundraiser dinner/ cruise/ concert we’re involved in tomorrow. Her theme involves picnics, so she’s making ants from chenille, wiggly eyes, pom-poms, and pins. Apparently the centerpieces will be bowls with craft-made ants scattered amongst fruit.
Hah!
(Mrs) “Why did you ask me what I made the ants from”
(Danalan) “No reason”
(Mrs) “You’re posting this, aren’t you?”
(Danalan) “Would I do that?”
