Generally I use a high-powered block at the beach. At home I prefer to limit my exposure and use a lighter screen to let my skin build up some of its own protection. Oh, and lots of vitamin E...

Threesome: Sheets-- 120 count or 180? (Okay guys, you're exempt <g>, but you could ask someone who knows!) 180. I like that or flannel (winter months only, please!).

How about you? What's covering you? Please let us know, over on The Back Porch...
