We, Tonto?

Mom and I went to a lame-ish Home and Garden show downtown today. (We had a good time doing some other things, too, but the actual "event" left a little to be desired - I think she'd agree!) While we were there and looking at one of the displays, she turned to me, looked at my face, and with wide eyes exclaimed, "Wow, we look really sallow!" Mind you, there was no mirror in sight, so the use of "we" was appreciated, but not accurate.

I know getting sun isn't good for your skin, but I just hate how pale and icky my skin gets in the winter. I'm yearning for the next time I can sit outside and relax, my face turned to the sun to drink in a little Vitamin D.

And speaking of my awful skin tone, with its freckles, dry spots, and blemishes, Deb has talked me into trying this. I don't wear foundation or powder, not because I don't need it, but because I never think it looks quite right. I'm going to give this a try and if it works out, I'll report back.
