  1. Aren't freckled people more likely to get melanoma?

  2. Quite a few of us follow this blog, not just for entertainment, but for information we're unable to find/obtain elsewhere
    BTW: I think girls with freckles are far more beautiful, particularly those with emerald green eyes

  3. Glory be to God for dappled things—
    For skies of couple-colour as a brinded cow;
    For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim;
    Fresh-firecoal chestnut-falls; finches’ wings;
    Landscape plotted and pieced—fold, fallow, and plough;
    And áll trádes, their gear and tackle and trim.

    All things counter, original, spare, strange;
    Whatever is fickle, freckled (who knows how?)
    With swift, slow; sweet, sour; adazzle, dim;
    He fathers-forth whose beauty is past change:
    Praise him.

    - Gerard Manley Hopkins, Pied Beauty
