"You shouldn't neglect your gums." (Julia Roberts, Pretty Woman)

CAPES [something empowering] Flossing not only prevents plaque build-up and gum disease, but it also helps fight bad breath. If that doesn't empower you (and you know who you are...) to floss more, then I give up.

COFFEE [latest trend or addiction] Neosporin for cuts, burns, AND...blemishes. Oh how I wish I knew this in Junior High.

THE COLOR ORANGE [something noteworthy] 15 years into my addiction of caffeine and coffee, I find myself finally able to drink drip coffee. But it has to be iced...with cream...and 2 pumps of vanilla syrup (so much for simplicity).
