Hi Amy! I’ve been sitting here trying to think of a just brilliant opening line to catch your eye and entice you to answer my question…but whatever, I give up. I couldn’t think of anything scintillating enough. ooo, but “scintillating”, that is a good word….

Hola Amalah! I’m a fairly new reader of your blogs, but that hasn’t stopped me from giving you my full attention and devotion. As such, I need some advice on the long standing “white after Labor Day” rule… and fast! My bridal shower is coming…
Dear Amalah, Oh my holy hell. I look like washed-up crap in photographs. Why is this? Why can’t I have skin-colored skin? I didn’t used to be so ghostly whiiiiiite! Okay, background: I am a natural strawberry-blond (glad you didn’t take the fake red route…
