Color My World

Do grown ups ever get to use crayons and color for fun? Or is that a big part of your creative childhood that has to get left behind after you reach a certain age?

I see crayons on the store shelves as part of the back to school push of products. I would love to buy a big box of crayons and spend a rainy afternoon coloring. Don’t laugh!

Brush and Floss

My teeth are not the strongest, thanks to something in my DNA. Both of my parents are British, so I think I was doomed to have bad English teeth. It’s not a myth – it’s real.

My dentists over the years have tried every approach to get me to brush my teeth regularly and floss. I have resisted just about all their efforts throughout my childhood. But now that I am older and realize that healthy teeth are an important part of a nice appearance, and are important to overall health, I am actually trying to take better care of my teeth and gums. I do brush twice a day and I do floss every night. I hope it’s not too late to keep my smile.
