craggly skin

When Simon can't think of the right word to describe something he makes one up.

Today he and I were in the canned tomatoes section of the grocery store (I'm making a double batch of my marinara. Mmmmmmm) and a really wrinkly, old lady walked by.

Simon: "Um, mom?"
Me: "Yes, Simon?"
Simon, "Um, if you have, um, like, craggly skin does that mean you are old?"
Me: laughing... "Why, yes, Simon. It does."

A young mother walked by just as he said this. She cracked up with me.
