So apparently while our backs have been turned the toothpaste in our house has been procreating.
This is the only possible explanation I have come up with for this
little baby toothpastes which Oldest Girl gathered from various nooks and crannies in the bathrooms today.
And this pile doesn't include the large tubes we regularly use (the parents I suppose)
Or the ones we threw away because they were a brand no one in the house would use.
Or the ones already packed inside each family member's individual toiletry kit.
About 2 months ago the Professor decreed that no more shampoo or conditioner would be purchased in this house. Instead we would use up supplies on hand.
There was much weeping and nashing of teeth.
This was totally unreasonable. I assured my female offspring that we would indeed buy a big bottle of the preferred brand as soon as we used up all the little bottles which would of course be within a week or two.
Silly me.
We have purchased no additional hair care products nor will we until after we are in our new home.
