Daisy got a pretty harsh sunburn on her shoulders after a school event going to an outdoor pool as they celebrated the end of school. For the first week I put on fresh aloe vera goo from our aloe vera plants but the following week I started putting on an herbal salve at night. (You can only decimate a fresh plant of so many leaves and then you start to worry that its going to die quickly if you don't stop to let it re-grow.)
Daisy thought the aloe was okay but the salve not so much. Her complaint? "It smells like old people."
I queried to see how she even thought she knew how old people smelled and she responded, "I don't know, but it smells like old people-I just know it." Plus she added the following: "And it's extremely sticky. It sticks to your skin at night."
Can I just say I'm happy that the sunburn is completely healed now?
A selection of remarks from the mundane to the occasional wit with some recipes, book selections, and various sundries included.
