The short-lived drama series Little Mouths on the Prairie explored family-strengthening themes, including love, cleanliness, and the crisis of sugar addictions. Keep toothy ties strong with today's Groupon: for $40, you get a children's dental exam, cleaning, x-ray, and fluoride treatment (a $188 value) at Brentwood Dental Pediatrics in Brentwood, valid for kids 17 and under.
Under the guidance of Dr. Jeanne Taylor, DMD, Brentwood Dental Pediatrics' toothy technicians ensure overall health in youthful mouth caves with comprehensive care. Parents guide pensive patients into Brentwood Dental Pediatrics' purple-bathed waiting area, where they shed anxiety with a variety of video games, toys, and positive economic reports. Once acclimated, kids meet Dr. Jeanne, who examines their burgeoning chompers and surrounding tissue before peering below the gum line with an x-ray. A thorough cleaning and polishing imbues pearly whites with the brilliance of Einstein's sequined tuxedo before a cloak of fluoride surrounds mouth studs to protect them from softening.
Once complete, parents discuss the pediatric prognosis with Dr. Jeanne while patients claim prizes to commend calm dental-chair behavior. If a return appointment is necessary, Brentwood Dental's experts will discuss possible care plans.

The Groupon Guide to: Barbecue Secrets
Every barbecue joint boasts a secret ingredient or technique that makes its sauce unlike any other. Since most barbecue chefs have taken these secrets to the grave, here's a new list of public-domain barbecue secrets for the aspiring grillsman:
- Throw recipe thieves off your trail by filling your sauce with decoy ingredients such as talc, water, and heaping spoonfuls of rival sauces.
- Age your sauce in an oak cask for 15 years—it doesn't do anything, but you'll sure be hungry by then.
- Go bananas—add bananas to your sauce!
- BBQ is short for B.B. Queen—the wife of legendary bluesman B.B. King—and real barbecue sauce must contain exactly one of her soulful tears.
- As with success in any field, the real secret ingredient is confidence —except in barbecue sauces, in which it is horseradish.
