GARLIC POWDER DOES NOT VACUUM UP WELL OFF BERBER CARPET.

These little stinkers reached over the kitchen gate (and yes Tony, it was gated) and pulled off the garlic powder I had left sitting out on the counter from last night. I admit that was my fault leaving it out. I didn't catch them in the action so not sure who really picked it up but Andrew picked the empty container up off the floor and gave it to me. Nate was taking a towel trying to wipe it up. I think he got that idea from me yesterday when Madelyn's lid popped off her sippy and spilled milk on the carpet and I was trying to soak it up with a towel. All three trouble makers were surrounding the scene so I have a feeling they were all involved in the shaking of the container to get it all empty. It was about half full and now completely empty. My carpet needs another good cleaning anyway but I need to plan it when the kids will not be walking on it for a while so it can dry completely.
