What's your favorite Christmas treat/candy, etc?
Mine are the 'chocolate oranges' and Andes mints.
For homemade stuff, can't beat fudge, Chex mix and Christmas sugar cookies.
What're your favorites?
Never had a cat before? You are in for a real treat (sm)
Cats are just so cool. I have 3 dogs and my 20 year old cat just died in Feb. They work their way into your heart just like dogs do, but in many ways are so much easier to deal with. And they have this way of looking at you when you give them the "wrong" food that day, like you have just totally lost your mind. If you're gone for a few days, your dogs will be so excited to see you when you get back. Cats will act like they don't care, and are just so uninterested that you came back (till an hour or so later when they decide to "forgive" you. As you can probably see, I miss my baby. Best of luck with yours.
Put a little no fat cool whip on top, and you have a real treat
he's not a real person, but that feeling is real - the magic. nm

That's what my dentist will say, too.
It's just $600 for a crown that my insurance won't cover. Yikes!
My DH needs to go to the dentist, he refuses. We have been
married 18 years and he hasn't been since we've been married. I told him I would make an appointment for him and the rest of the family to go and we'd do it all at once and he is adamant that he is NOT going. I don't know why he doesn't want to go. I know they will tell him he needs lots of work because he does. His teeth are rotten, but stained badly and I feel like it is holding him back from advancing in the job market. I'm going to make appointments tomorrow for the whole family and tell him he's going too. He'll have to cancel the appointment if he's not going to go and I'm don't plan on telling him the name of the dentist (we are going to a new one since my kids have aged out of the pediatric dentist).
At next cleaning, would use another dentist
xx
It has already been discussed with the dentist and
her orthodontist. The damage comes from over use of any product, including those treatments one can receive in the dental office setting.
absolutely, but the dentist said that it is...
because of too much sugar and not brushing her teeth in the report. He said he stressed the importance of good oral hygeine, et cetera.
The dentist we go to charges
We have insurance. Have you asked your primary care doctor if there is a clinic or something like that to take care of your husband's dental care? It's worth a shot. I had heard something about dentists in training offering cleaning and such for a much cheaper rate. I think the obstacle would be if they found a cavity or whatever. Good luck to you! By the way, we are on the East Coast, so not sure if prices vary by region or not.
Update about dentist from below post sm
My dentist called me last night and apologized. She is doing to write off the difference. She was very nice and I told her I'm not one to complain and I'm not a cheat either. So we worked out stuff and I will continue to go to her.
Excellent suggestion on the dentist
He has a cleaning scheduled in June (the soonest we could get him in without missing school) and at 17 he has never had a cavity. Well, the last time he was there was about 8 months ago so he was 16 then if we want to get technical. LOL! Whew, I finally slept last night. Definitely starting to feel a bit better, but I did make his fav. dinner last night, lasagna, and while he ate just fine, normally there are very few leftovers and not even half was eaten. DD suddenly decided yesterday she no longer likes lasagna so all she ate was salad and bread. I know my radar is up now and I will be picking everything apart. Watching what he eats, if he goes to the bathroom shortly after eating, etc. Even though this has been tough, I put my parents through so much more. I really owe them an apology.
you have got the ole stick it to the dentist syndrome
I paid that bill also and it is awful. Tell the dentist you want a different prize.
Does your dentist grope your chest?
Woodland, CA — The attorney for a Woodland dentist told jurors that his client massaged women's chests as part of a medical treatment.
Defense attorney Michael Rothschild told the six-man, six-woman Yolo County jury that Mark Anderson was treating his female clients for temporomandibular disorder, or TMD. The attorney says the condition affects the muscles of the upper body.
Anderson faces 19 felony charges for skin-to-skin contact and one misdemeanor for touching a patient's breasts over her clothing. The incidents occurred between February 2005 and his arrest in August 2007 and brought complaints from 14 women.
One of the initial 20 felonies was dropped Monday as Rothschild and Deputy District Attorney Robert Gorman began closing arguments.
Closing arguments were to continue Tuesday before the case was to go to the jury.
I would also opt for dentures. But get a really good dentist....sm
Sooner or later you will have to get dentures anyways, it looks like that.
Whatfor AL the pain and torture in between?
And do not accept dentures that do not fit or are uncomfortable. Send them back to the lab until the fit is perfect, this is your right, dentures are expensive and if they do not fit right, you will have all sorts of pain, headaches etc...
I had bridges done and I sent them back thrice until they fit, without extra charge. The fist set looked like a 'rollercoaster'!
It seems that you suffered your whole life from calcium deficiency.
My dentist office charges if you miss - sm
your appt. (or don't call and cancel 24-hours ahead) But they had me sign a paper acknowledging that they told me this and that I agree to the terms. This sounds totally bogus and a scam to boot. Good luck.
Our dentist recommends Crest Whitestrips
My dentist says SOFT toothbrush, never firm!
All these years, everyone thought stiff brushes were better than soft, and the harder and longer you brushed, the better. WRONG! I now have lots of cavity and root issues going on because I have essentially worn off much of the enamel on my teeth between the gumline and the center of the tooth. Have had to have more cavities filled, as well as lots of restorative work. Now I use a soft baby's toothbrush!
My dentist also recommend Crest strips
She said she could do the whitening but it would yield no better result than an OTC product. Check the website too, they may have coupons available that you can print or sign up to receive by mail. I'm finding a lot of brand name product websites do this now.
I had ZOOM in my dentist's office and am very pleased.
I tried Crest White Strips but they didn't do anything. Zoom was pricey, but my teeth were really yellow. They are much, MUCH nicer. I maintain with a 45-minute bleach at home twice a week. Right after I had my teeth whitened, I received a lot of compliments, but people couldn't quite figure out what was different. I heard a lot of "Did you get your hair cut?" and "Did you get new glasses?" LOL.
Tell you dentist to put 'veneers' over your teeth, if you can afford it nm

Without anesthesia, and done by a dentist with severe halitosis. :)

About Your Candy
Just wondering if you have a website regarding your candy business. ?
Arm Candy
You just have to enforce with him there are consequences to every action. Have a real heart to heart with him. Use Levi and Palin's daughter as a perfect example of young love. Remind him all the weight-watching, college, etc. will be down the drain if he makes a mistake. Then remind him of AIDS and all the other STD's that last a lifetime and encourage him to use protection. When the hormones are raging and the girls are falling all over them they need to be reminded. Just do it in a way that he knows you are not saying he is stupid but that you don't want to see him a mistake that could change/mess up his life for a long time.
It's true. My kids' dentist told me this yeas ago. sm
If the enamel is brushed away, it exposes the tooth first and they the root is invaded by the decay.
Gums should also be brushed as well as the tongue.
A dentist who does breast exams should lose his licence. Besides...
I categorily refuse manual breast exams. If I want to check fir cancer, I go for a mommogram.
Candy making
I use chocolate bark to dip with. I do know you have to watch the humidity outside. If the humidity is high, the chocolate will not set, but you can put it in the refrigerator to get it to set. Have fun!!
candy making
Aww, my favorite time of year. You can freeze your candy and it will still be good until Christmas. I make chocolate and peanut butter fudge and freeze it. As a matter of fact, it is really good frozen, takes longer to eat, just melts in your mouth. I have to disguise the candy in the freezer, otherwise people will pick at it and it will be gone by Christmas. YUM!
Candy and website
I am working on getting it back up and running...tell me what your interested in and I will send you some pics.
Oh, he is mostly arm candy and he is a looker!
Actually when it comes to money I have more than him so maybe I might find someone even younger than him but I doubt that. I never doubt his love for 1 minute.
They treat you this way cause you allow it.Can only
x
Find a dentist advertised as gentle that will put him under for work being done. They're out
s
P.S. Couldn't really say John Candy or that would have
completely given it away.
Had to make ya work for it right?! :)
I got 5 pounds of chocolate candy
Hubby remembered one night...just 1 night...and can't remember when, that I was so hungry for a piece of chocolate, he gave me 5 pounds of chocolate for Christmas!!! I love chocolate but not that much!!!! I think he wants me to get fat. 
I ate 2 pieces so far since Christmas. Hmmmmmmmmmm, think I'll go grab a piece now. It seems to be calling me.
I transcribed a Candy Caine once. sm
There was a doctor in the town I used to transcribe for named Dr. VonSick. Ironic?
There is an accounting firm in the next town over named Cheatham and Goleno. Cheat em? Not my accountant!
I went to school with a Candy Kiss = sm
She dropped out of school in 10th grade and married a man whose last name was Kowalski.
Do you keep a candy dish on your desk?
What's inside it?
I have one on my desk, but it usually only has sugar-free gum in it. Boring I know, but I hate it when my kids get cavities and since they raid my dish all the time, I have to take precautions. I also don't want to tempt myself all day long with sugar. Sometimes I get sugar-free Werther's candy or sugar-free lemonade candy but those bags are so tiny they don't last long.
Halloween candy warning
HALLOWEEN CANDY RECALLED
There is a new warning put out by the Canadian Food Inspection
Agency....
Sherwood brand Pirate's Gold Milk Chocolate coins are being
recalled due to the fact that they contain Mel amine, the ingredient in milk
product that has caused many infant deaths in china. These candies are
sold at Costco, as well as many bulk and dollar stores. please make sure to
check your childrens halloween candy and DO NOT LET THEM EAT THE
PIRATE COINS (you know the ones wrapped in the shiny gold foil) and
please let other parents know about this!
Christmas candy ideas
My husband and I make about 30 tins of candy each year to give to family and friends. We make chocolate covered cherries (just dip cherries in melted chocolate), white chocolate covered pretzels with red and green chocolate drizzled on top, turtles (I buy a 5 lb chunk of caramel), buckeyes (peanut butter balls dipped in chocolate), peanut butter kiss cookies, mixed nut clusters dipped in chocolate and peanut butter fudge. All of it is pretty simple, just time consuming. My family really looks forward to receiving it each year. I use a double boiler for melting chocolate. I haven't had much luck in the microwave. If you would like specific instructions for any of the above, feel free to e-mail me. I think the kids could do a lot of the dipping to help out.
Candy making question
If I make some candy would it still be good for Christmas? I'm going to make those Peanut Butter Bon Bons today.
How do you make you choolate chips and paraffin wax to dip them in? I can't remember how many choc chips I used before, but one time the candy didn't get as hard as it should.
I always keep these in the fridge anyway.
of course it's real!!! It's all real, hence the title
gross
TLR- ice cream treat
And by the way thanks to some of the ones that don't mind reading them!!
I decided to take a much deserved break a lot earlier than usual from the craziness going on today and plus it was so beautiful out I couldn't sit any longer. Cupid and I went to Bruesters Ice Cream for a treat. He was sooo excited he ran up to the stand!! I think he knew something special was waiting there for him! It was the first time we went to there so he didn't know what was there yet. The first thing the girl asked me was if I wanted a doggie dish. When he got it, there was a little dog biscuit stuck in the icecream. It was so cute. I hope your having a good evening, later.
Just found the best cat treat EVER -- sm
it's called Kitty Kaviar-- but I think it should be called Kitty Krack, LOL
It is thin dried flakes of real tuna and my cats cannot get enough (and they are fairly finicky).
My male kitty is diabetic and with these treats he lets me test him and give him his shots without any fuss whatsoever.
No not treat yourself -- see message
I type for a psychologist well known in my area whose caseload is 75% ADD. He does a lot of natural remedies and supplements. A good book is Brain Gym that helps with exercises to train the brain to be focuses. A lot of exercise is necessary. Lots of protein, DEH, etc. But without getting him evaluated you are shooting in the dark as to what will and what will not help. Insurance pays for it. But there are a lot of natural supplements and things you can do but you need an expert to work with you and not just an MD that puts them on medications. I have two nephews that have it, they went to this doctor and diet, exercise and supplements have helped tremendously and now in high school they are off medication. If you had an infection or a medical problem you would go to a doctor and not treat yourself so don't treat this yourself. Patti
They say docs won't treat them?
geez, I'm afraid...
trick or treat?
I'm figuring the way this day is going that I will turn off my lights, sit in the basement and eat 2 bags of Snickers instead of handing it out tonight. I hear those little candy bars up in the pantry calling my name. I figure I am saving the neighborhood kids from cavities, weight gain, stomachaches and a night of bouncing off the walls. I know they'll thank me later.
What did YOU do for HIM???, does he treat u good every other day? nm

can you treat a UTI over the counter?
I am one of those lucky MTs that dont have health insurance and that makes it pretty annoying when I have probelms. Like right now I am sure that I have a UTI, but dont want to go to the ER and get that $600 bill. I bought some AZO and cranberry vitamin. I figure I will drinks lots of water and see what happens... any suggestions? Thanks a lot!
Is there a local candy making store?
 They may have them, but not sure. I'm in Delaware, but we have a store that carries all kinds of little things to make your own candy. I do remember seeing cinnamon chips, and I wonder where they went? I wonder if you also tried Hershey's website for them or other websites. I wonder if you Google cinnamon chips???? just a thought....
Or hard candy clicking around in their mouths, nm

And bring lots of candy gelt.
