But alas, that dream is not to be mine and therefore I must be content with my not-so-tough-teeth. What does this mean you wonder? Well, it means I use an electric toothbrush. I use floss. I use special toothpaste and special mouthwash. I use these items three... yes I said THREE times a day (well, floss just twice).
And I cut out all sweets.
That makes me sad.
Very. Sad.
But, I get to keep ice cream.
And that is happy.
Truth be told, I don't much miss the sweets. I did not really like chocolate or cake. And I only liked two pies. I was not a big fan of candy bars until I discovered Smarties in Scotland. If I ever have the chance to eat Smarties again, I know I will fail. Don't these look so yummy? Ugh... I am drooling.
oh, right, I don't eat sweets. And I am ok with that. Amazingly, I am not really tempted. Anytime I bake I noticed that I did not really eat what I baked. Maybe the yummy smells filled me up. Yes, that must be it. And now that I think about it, I do like the smell of cookies baking more than the cookies themselves. You do too!? What a pair we make.
So here is my posts to sweets. To no more sixlets or KitKats or molten-lava cakes. Goodbye my tasty tarts and salt water taffy and gummy bears. Farewell birthday cake and brownie bites. Because, my teeth are more valuable that sugar and calories.
And if you are in need of a Dentist in Housotn... You have GOT to check out Dr. Hamilton Calder. He is just wonderful. Great staff, top technology, friendly, affordable, and I could go on. And tell them I sent you. The girl who doesn't eat sweets.

Makana,
I will send you some Smarties after I get back from France this summer. Canada has them too if you ever go there. You'll have to break the rules for some Smarties...

Hey Makana! Thanks for your blog comment. Your blog is much cuter than mine. Mine is so basic because of my lack of blog skills. :) That would be awesome if we could meet up when you come to Fort Worth. We would love it. We hope to come to Houston sometime soon. My husband can't take much time off of work, so we want to come over a weekend sometime. We'll have to plan something for sure. Hope all is well with you and your adorable family.
Wow, I don't think I could do it! I'm very impressed. Im glad at least you got to go home for the dental work. I'm sure you would have much rather had good teeth tho and visited another time. So sorry! But great attitude.
