July 7

So, I have to go back to the dentist next Monday.

I must return for 2 reasons.

It seems that a piece of the bonding on my permanent retainer is gone.

Gone?

How could it be gone?

I don’t eat anything hard enough to remove permanent bonding.

Also, according to my dental hygienist I don’t floss enough.

Who flosses enough?

I hate to floss, and I told her so.

She laughed and said “I can tell.”

I also have the beginnings of a cavity.

Sigh.

I lay the blame for this solely on all the vegetables I eat.

I gravitate toward beans.

Specifically cacao beans.

These beans, it seems, when mixed with a small bit of milk and sugar isn’t good for the teeth.

What?

Veggies bad for the teeth?

That is not what my mama told me, as she spooned broccoli and cooked spinach on my plate.

And in honor of my favorite vegetable, Lisa of Surviving Oz picked out today’s TWD.

Katherine Hepburn brownies, and they are chock full of beans.

They are also made in just one pot.

Yes.   One pot.

Fabulous, healthy, and hardly any dishes.

You just can’t ask for more than that!

Instead of putting strong coffee in the brownies, I put in cappuccino chips.

*insert picture of fabulous cut brownie with some vanilla bean ice cream, which isn’t availiable because when they were cool enough to photograph, my mud room exploded into my kitchen~~come back tomorrow to see why*

I wish I had made more, because after the day I had yesterday…I needed every last bit of them.

For Chocolatechic, brownies=crack

Yes, I blame my next trip to the dentist, squarely in the lap of beans.
