少艾

少 = 丿 + 小 : Mnemonic symbol: 少 looks like a smiley face. There's a food shortage (少) in the aorta, and Sherlock Holmes (sh) and Smiley (少) are looking for food in the living room (ao3). There's only one banana (丿) left. Soon they'll have to eat the many daisies (小) which are growing there.

艾 = 乂 + 艹 : Albert Einstein (Ø) cut himself, so he wanted to treat his wound with wormwood (艾) and mugwort (艾) in the airplane's bathroom (ai4). He finds that he accidentally used artificial lawn (艹) instead, and much worse, it has been used by someone else before. Quickly he uses a pair of pliers (乂) to draw out the artificial lawn again to stop (艾) getting aids (艾).
