Kim Metzger: Definitely grain. I think something more formal is needed for "a lot of" though. / When I met the German girl who became my wife, I sang to her: "the corn is as high as an elephant's eye" and she thought it was about a wheat field

writeaway: or a lot of schnapps (which would help pass the time during the winter). an ant spends the summer carrying large quantities of grain to its home. (is it a house, a hill, a hole, a tunnel, a castle??) :-)
