It is an awesome one. I hope Monkey enjoys his previously forbidden treats! And you get to enjoy orthodontist bill free days! Oh, that slippery, slimy feeling! It is an awesome one.

I yearned for whole apples. Carrot sticks. Actual bubble gum instead of the sugarfree, not-so-sticky chewing gum that I'd chewed without my orthodontist's knowledge. OREO COOKIES, because there's NO way to eat those without needing to immediately brush your teeth afterward. Congrats, Monkey! Although I got mine off over a decade ago, I still remember the wondrous sensation of being free from braces. Until I realized that now I'd have to wear retainers. *sigh* (Which I still do, once a week.) When I got my braces off (I was *almost* 18 – horrifying!) I yearned for whole apples. Carrot sticks.

Gummy Bears (or worms) or my FAVORITEST candy in the entire world. Yum. I love sticky foods: gum drops (Dots), gummy worms/bears, those delicious orange slices. Mmmmmmmm.... Okay, I suppose I should actually read the rest of the post, eh, instead of just the title. :D I do swear that I didn't see this before, but I found it funny that I said Gummy Bears on my response there and came over here only to see that they are what's for dinner. ;) jess I just came over here from WantNot, and I swear I did not see this before I responded there.
