Do what where??

MSB = My Special Blend, my brand of clown puke scrap soap. I've got a modest MSB - Unscented v1 started now.

Good morning, Cadre! A mid-morning shave for me today. This soap may be my favorite Unscented one yet. With moderate water and a minimum of effort it produces a perfect lather for me. And I've previously spoken of its wondrous Unscent characteristics. This morning it occurred to me the list of things it does not smell like continues to grow: add neroli, bergamot, and ylang ylang.

Lunchtime shave today. I'm having a chill Saturday; hope you are, too.

Indded! Today's excitement was buying the smallest turkey we could for tomorrow.

Monday morning shave to start the week off right. Zoom appointment at 12:30, so I want to be presentable. Have a great day, Cadre!

 

[GearNoir]

Have a great day Bruce! Hope the Zoom meeting is good things!

 

[Graybeard57]

It was, thank you. Even made yet another appointment, though it's not till May 5th.

Got a late start to the day, so never did get around to shaving. I'm toying with the notion of a haircut this afternoon, we shall see.

After this morning's shave and a haircut, I feel spiffy and keen, and by golly, I am. It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood: sunny and 76F/24C, going up to 79F/26C.
Have a great day, Cadre.

Shaved at the crack of dawn today. Well, 9am is for me. Can't recall the last time I shaved this early. Altogether, not an unpleasant experience. Must be because I went to be early last night. I probably won't be making a habit of this.
