About 25 years ago I was at a friend’s moms house.  I was at the counter talking with her while she was in the kitchen. 

She was about 65 years old at the time and I was in my 30’s.  We had a unique relationship as her kids knew not to talk back to her or challenge her.  I think we got along so well because, well being sassy is kind of, in my nature.  

She started raving about this new hand lotion that she got.  She said that it was a bit gritty and took awhile to soak into the skin but after it did, her skin was so smooth and soft.  

The container was on the counter.  I looked at it and began laughing hysterically.  I told her that it wasn’t hand lotion after all but a facial scrub.  

I teased teased her about it for years.  It’s one of those things we do that we’ll never hear the end of it.  This is one of those memories that makes me chuckle every time I think about it.
