mindstalk: (food)

Years ago, I had 5 teeth pulled, from both sides of my mouth. I believe I lived on smoothies for a while, with a blender I probably bought for the occasion, and barely used afterwards.

Years later, I had the last wisdom tooth removed. I don't remember what I lived on -- a bit of Ensure? -- but I'm pretty sure I didn't have a blender.

Now, I've had gum grafts, on both sides of my mouth, and I'm living on smoothies.

A friend pointed out that with only one side involved, you can mash up soft food on the other side of your mouth. But with both sides... well, I have permission to eat soft food, but it doesn't feel comfortable at all, and I'd rather explore savory smoothies (like cooking rice lentils onion etc, then blending it into something drinkable) than put any pressure on the coverings of my grafts.
