That's why I stick to my 3 lb can of ground coffee from Costco. I don't want to get sucked into another hobby. When I want to get fancy, I use a French press instead of the refillable Keurig cups.

Boy, I’ll say! Just look at those weird labels!I have a problem
You're Welcome! Kona is some good stuff. If all goes well i am going to check out a local roastery tomorrow before i go to bed. they are 5 min from my house and sell green coffee online. They keep very limited hrs at this location and otherwise sell their roasted beans through local Whole Foods stores. I will let you guys know how it goes.
Taddle Tail!

My latest acquisitions:
Atoma #140 lapping plate and two eBay scores: a W&B Full Hollow with a small frown and a Torrey Our 136. Both razors seem to be in decent shape, except for the frown that is.
The 12k CNAT that I have on loan from @The Monkey. I am going to have fun playing with this.
Some Arkansas stones from @cmh737 's den cleaning sale. On the left is a hard/soft combo stone from Dan's. Middle is a soft stone from Natural Whetstone. Right is a hard stone also from Natural Whetstone. More rocks for me to have fun with.
Finally, all the good smelling stuff in the world. OMG, the Blueberry Muffin smells good enough to eat. The Breakfast Blend is interesting. I can see bits of bean in mine. The other two also smell great!

First some Avon Clint aftershave to see what I was missing.
And my small order from Stirling. Satsuma smells good and very heavy menthol with my first Glacial. The Ramblin Man set is AWESOME. It reminds me of something but can't place it. I and the wife LOVE it !!!!

Got a couple things in.
Father-in-Law bought the family a Molecule air purifier, mostly for the kids who have a lot of allergies. Super nice! We’ll definitely put it through it’s paces.
Also got in an A&E (none of who’s products I’ve used) sample care package from Senior @Dave in KY. The package smells amazing! Lol!
Thanks Dave!

Heeeey, two mails calls within a week’s time. Setting records maybe.
LNHC Amber & Tobacco (nice off the tub)
CBL Breakfast Blend (nice subtle coffee)
CBL Blueberry Muffin (whoa soft soap, very strong medicinal berry scent off tub, not unpleasant but definitely different; withholding judgement)
Stirling Mountain Man sample (smells kinda generic, almost Play Doh, nose must be missing something, but willing to give it a shot)
Thanks @Aaron!

I'm glad you like it, @GearNoir.
CBL Ghost Pineapple came today. It smells great and the cooling will be nice in the upcoming warm weather. Thanks, @CBLindsay!
