Rommy has us thinking about comfort food today ~~~
my tooth
a tyrant tucked away in
the back of my mouth
has declared mutiny
it throbs like a drum
sings its own aria !!
bread is too bold
carrots out of the question
even soup warrants vetting !!
i live now in the
land of the mashed & puréed
kingdom of all that is soft
where applesauce and mashed potatoes reign
and pudding is my only pleasure !!
three days until my dentist
my knight with a shiney drill
rescues me from
this gosh-darn molar menace 👿
Oh poor you! Thank goodness for the mashed and puréed! Luckily, mashed potatoes and applesauce are both lovely at any time.
ReplyDeleteI could go there, teeth not there. I make my Mrs and me an egg, ham, and cheese sandwiches on mayo'd slightly toasted brown bread. I cook the egg to fry in the micro, I don't use fry pans, no washing. With deli ham I mush eat these delightful sandwiches.
ReplyDeleteJim, back from who knows where.
I hope your knight is skillful and the dreadful molar gets thoroughly vanquished.
ReplyDeleteYou make the dreaded toothache sound okay!! Mash potatoes? Are you kidding...a favorite!
ReplyDeleteJust a day more!
ReplyDeleteI share you pain on this one. I have a tooth that broke, and is now sensitive to anything that touches it.
