Hi! Just joined. LOL at all the wonderful photos you've put with your names - littlehud's cat at work and oldswimmer's two dogs at rest and all the quiltwork, of course. Wow!
I noticed a vast improvement in dry skin on my hands while applying Aveeno Baby moisture cream to little butts. So I keep a tube near the sink, sewing area, and laundry.
I use Super Glue when I forget the Anveeno and my fingers start cracking again. Store the tube pin-end down once opened in the original container with the red-cap end up. Not hard if you think about it, keeps the tube from drying out.
