  We have to make something up to cover only the body text in the posts.

  .entry-content p {
  color: #d6ad7a;
  }

  The above does not change the links in the posts. If you want to change them also to the same color then add this.

  .entry-content a {
  color: #D6AD7A;
  }

  I might suggest a color just a little darker to improve contrast. Those visually challenged out there might have some problems reading this lighter color.

  What do you do to cause text to appear in a shaded box, as in the replies, above, on a WordPress page?
