Great FBG jealous of the soughdough

Sourdough baguette. It was delicious. Sadly I have cracked a tooth this morning! A big chunk of molar split off line an iceberg from a polar ice sheet! My dental accidents always happen peri-Christmas!! No pain though, fortunately. But seriously! Always at Christmas time! ***?!

Oh well. C'est la vie. I'll see if I can get an emergency temp filling done today. Other wise it'll just have to wait

I swear if the universe turns out to be a simulation, what git decided I get a dental problem every few Christmases? I had a check up last week with a glowing report from my dentist telling me my teeth have never been so good since he's been seeing me

Have a good Christmas guys!
