Cotton Candy When

by Monica

When..
I was a child, there were two things I wanted that I thought would make
me perfectly happy. A real live baby seal, and a cotton candy machine.
The family chuckled. Obviously, I wasn't going to get a baby seal to
keep in the bathtub. Getting a cotton candy machine seemed more
realistic, but I didn't have the money to purchase one.I've
always had a gigantic sweet tooth. It's a rascally yearning that I try
to keep under control. Cotton candy certainly fills the bill: It is
about 99.999 % sugar. I thought it was kind of magical. It was like
eating cotton, (duh!) but it melted in your mouth! And all that sticky
goo on your fingers. And your teeth turning blue or pink, depending on
your choice of color.I haven't had cotton candy in years,

but would not turn it down if offered. OOH my aching teeth!
