Once upon a time, there was a tiny colony of ants who lived in the forest. They were always impressed with the big animals they saw around them and wanted to be just like them. One day, they found a recipe for baking a cake. They were so excited to try it out as they had never baked anything before.

However, when they started following the recipe, they made a mistake and added ten times the amount of sugar that was required. The cake turned out to be super sweet and the tiny ants couldn't even eat a small piece without getting a sugar rush. Despite this, they were so impressed with themselves for being able to bake such a delicious cake that they decided to have a big party to celebrate.

Everyone in the colony was having a great time, dancing, and eating cake until suddenly, all the ants started to feel very strange. They were bouncing around, singing loudly, and acting silly. They soon realized that they had all become sugar-highs because of the mistake they made with the recipe.

The tiny ants learned a valuable lesson that day. They learned that sometimes mistakes can lead to unexpected and funny results. But they also learned that they needed to be careful when baking because too much sugar is not good for anyone. From then on, they were more careful when following recipes and still baked delicious cakes but with the right amount of sugar.

The end.
