Yesterday, at the gym, there was a lady selling a tooth whitening procedure. She basically bleaches your teeth with some kind of peroxide that keeps them sparkly white for about a year. She was right beside my elliptical machine, so I was curious about what she was setting up. She said she usually charges $300 at the dentist's office but here, she was doing it for $120. I did see a girl come in for an appointment.
I also watched a bit of the FoodTV channel as I did my workout. Ricardo was on, a French Canadian chef. He was doing a special on Asian pears. Surprisingly, the trees can grow in Canada and they are very resistant to disease as the insects find the pears too crispy to bite into. I also did not know that these pears can be stored for up to 6 months in your refrigerator which is a good thing. Then he proceeded to cook the pears in carmelized sugar and make a delicious, healthier dessert.

I don't know that pears can be kept so long. Next time I will know what to do my my pears!
Pear trees in Canada? Well, I never.
I used to work with a woman who was actualyl addicted to teeth whitenting. She had bleached them soo much that althogth they were still very white they were slowly gogin grey somehow from too much of the surface dissolved away that they couldn;t get white as before. Scary.
I don't know about someone wanting to touch my eyes or my teeth! I would want to be so careful that they don't damage the enamel because once it's gone you can't have it back. Same for my eyes, you can't get your sight back.
Pete, I better double check that, but pretty sure that's what he said
Mmm, pear trees do grow in Canada, and now so do Asian pears. Wow, good to know that about teeth whitening, poor lady
SoccerMom, you're so right...I agree...eyes or teeth
I'd love to have that tooth whitening procedure but I'm worried my teeth will become too sensitive. I wonder.
I wonder how that tooth whitening stuff tastes? I have had friends who have done that and then had to drink their coffee and tea with a straw so as not to stain their newly whitened teeth.
Christine, I love how you watch the Food Channel while you exercise. That would just make me hungry!
Kay there's always those Crest Whitening strips you could try first!
Japra, never thought about it that way! (exercising and watching foodtv is definitely contradictory!) lol
