Living With A Sweet Tooth

I admit it, I have a sweet tooth. I love chocolate, ice-cream and nearly every type of candy. I am a big lollipop lover. I think they taste good and they are fun. My children have followed in my footsteps. My son loves chocolate and my daughter is a big lollipop connoisseur. We are one of those families who buy too much candy and eat more than we buy. The funny thing is none of us are overweight.

Lollipops are fun and they taste good. I am amazed how far we have come with candy. Some companies have a huge variety of lollipops, enough to please everybody in the entire family. When I was a kid, we had a good variety of candy, but nothing like what we have today. Back then, you had to go to a fancy candy store to find what you wanted. Today, you go online, make a search for what you want and it arrives at your door.

Living with a sweet tooth has its problems. I spend more time at the dentist than most people. The dentist is always asking me what I bit into with my teeth. When I tell him I love lollipops, he just shakes his head. He believes I am going to ruin my teeth, but they have lasted for forty-seven years already and I still have every tooth. I think I will have a sweet tooth until the day I die, I believe it is a family trait.

My Whole Family Has a Sweet Tooth

My children love candy. My son loves chocolate bars and my daughter loves lollipops. I also love chocolate bars, the more the merrier is my motto. We all love the holidays that have something to do with candy. My children love to go trick or treating on Halloween, they love Valentines Day and they love all they chocolate bunnies they get on Easter Sunday.

We love to wait until after the holidays and search out the stores who deeply discount their candy. Target usually puts their candy on discount for 90 percent and we load up. My son and I grab all the chocolate we can handle and my daughter makes sure we get her some lollipops. We are one of those families who just can't get enough of our sweets. Our dentist hates it, but we believe it is worth the risk.

I know by now, you think my family is nuts for loving candy, but don't worry. We love chocolate bars with nuts in them too. We aren't picky. My son loves his dark chocolate the best and I love milk chocolate. My daughter likes chocolate too, but she would rather spend her time enjoying a delicious lollipop. Stop by our house sometime and we will offer you a treat. you won't be sorry.
