The Stella teeth-brushing miracle lasted for a day and a half. Then it was back to World War 3. Not sure why it started. Not sure why it stopped.
But...
As I sit here in San Diego at the winter Fancy Food Show, word comes from Brooklyn that Stella has started brushing her teeth again. In a phone conversation with her, Stella told me she tickled her teeth and she got lots of stickers. She also demanded that I bring her back a scooter from California because of her good behavior.
I think I'll wait to see how long this lasts.
