I agree. They are the visible demonstration of a long life lived, care and love.

I think of my grandmother that worked long hours in a factory, raised 4 kids, and also helped her neighbors....

Animals are reliable, full of love, true in their affections, grateful. Difficult standards for people to live up to.”

So what term would have been better to use? Old lady hands? However, even $55 hand cream will not prevent granny hands.

Premature aging (of the hands), pretty much what most companies who sell such items usually refer to it as, rather than trying to be cutesie.

LOL, for someone that goes on air and has close ups of her hands selling jewelry and other products with nasty fake nails that need to be filled in and brown self tanning crust around the nails, has no room to talk about having hands that don't look nice.

An unfortunate term is an understatement. I love Kachina624's response to her mother. I would rather have love and caring over spending some $55 for handcream that most likely would not work.

Ladies, I was watching the show and Lisa did not make the comment. The vendor did, and in Lisa's defense she tried to deflect that comment. Lisa is a pro and realized right away that the vendor had spoken out of turn.

Love the Granny hands, too bad the hosts or vendors will offend any one to sell a product and don't tell me they don't know they are being offensive! I didn't see that show, but LR has been offensive in many other instances.
