Does grinding them up superfine & putting the powder in a milkshake/smoothie count? Or baking it into cookies? Just idle curiosity – not about to try it!

Poor Olwen. She’s the stuck in the middle having to curb the behavior of her grandchildren and her grandmother! (Olwen calls her Grandma Yaga, but I’m not sure if she is Olwen’s mother or Grandmother. She’s not shown in the family tree.)

Tusks will only add to expensive dental bills-best to stick with what you have.
