Lime overload today! This soap and AS are one of my favs - so much that they are one of 5 sets that I have backups just in case. It was tough to pick a frag today - because I have a bunch with lime notes - but I chose HetV because - well that’s the only note 😂

Work is actually busy this week - inprocessing two newbies -whose HR stuff isn’t lined up, and their hand-offs who would normally show them the ropes are on vacation. Plus the boss in still in Hawaii, interviews for a person leaving, plus a major project that just got kicked off. But I shall not let the day overcome…..1656512197693.gif

Great shave Brian!! That is a great soap and scent. I may have to pick up some of the splash (if you've left any, that is... 😐 )

I make no promises on the stock - it is really good stuff and I must confess I have more than one backup bottle of it 😂

Shave soap & AS are an homage to Mountain Dew - very nice citrus with a cooling kick! I was going to go with 4711 Lemon & Ginger - better scent match - but since I rarely hit the D&G Light Blue Sun - figured hey - why not? It’s one of those forgotten flankers.

Got some good news for the hobby side of me. This week I had ordered the Koraat and was told the turn-around time would be 5 weeks. Just got an email from the artisan who let me know that they had one available now and were sending it out. Pretty cool beans.

My Phils are in a rut - had a great road trip - but now they are home against the dreaded Braves who are eating their lunch.

Have a great day everyone!
