.. but older. Mostly older. I was already pretty damned wise. Now, however, I'm wise to the sneaky ways of pasta.
I broke a molar the night before my birthday while chewing a slightly undercooked bow-tie pasta noodle. I wish I could say I was suing someone over it, or was given my dinner free or something, but I made the pasta myself. Lovely. Now the jagged bit of the tooth scrapes against my tongue when I talk or chew. I'll be going to the dentist in a few hours to see about getting it fixed.
So, some free advice from the older, wiser me to the younger, less wise you who might be reading... avoid clothing shaped noodles, or, if it can't be avoided, poke the centers with a fork before putting them in your mouth.
