Dear Tooth Fairy:

I never really asked for anything as a kid, but now that I’m an adult with real cravings and obsessions, I must confess to an inordinate lusting after one thing and one thing only. I want to live in Paris.

I know what you’re going to say…it’s a great place to visit, but it’s really hard to live there. What’s so difficult about stumbling out of bed in the morning, wrapping a scarf around your neck, and heading out in search of the perfect croissant and café au lait?

Can’t you have a conversation with your friend, the genie from Aladdin’s lamp, and cajole him into granting me this one little wish?

I promise to brush every day with organic toothpaste and I forgive you in advance for not checking underneath the pillows when my grandchildrens’ teeth start falling out.

Let me know if there’s anything I can do for you in return.

Sincerely yours,

Beth from America
