    A wonderful tribute, Neal. We’re thinking of you and your great words about your mother today.

    And finally..Review # 3-the Maggard 24 MM synthetic brush w/marble handle.

    I'd like another go with it because I didn't have it properly prepared after soaking it for a bit in warm tap water prior to the shave. The loading of the above-mentioned soap had the brush looking like an inside-out umbrella. But it got the job done well in 2 passes, mainly the second. I love the marble handle! Happy to have this, to join with my other 4. I just need to prepare it better next time.

    Another close shave with the Cooper this morning. Pulled out the Mastro Miche for ‘odds and ends’ as I can’t think of the last time I used it. Labelling aside, it is a good product. I believe that many of the TFS soaps use a vegan formula, but this one contains lanolin.
    I’ll be leaving work early today and we’re travelling to my inlaws about 3 hours away as it is Thanksgiving long weekend here in Canada.
    Have a great day all!

    Yeah, those labels are questionable. Great pic though! Happy Thanksgiving!

    2 pass BBS? Great start to the day, Clint. Some awesome looking gear as well.
    Great photo, Jim. You don’t see much of that artisan posted on here. Sounds like good stuff.
    Have a fun trip this weekend, Perry!
    Great minds, Jim...I packed the Palmolive Stick into the Dopp bag an hour ago. Great pic as well!

    I don't usually soak Synthetic brushes. I just put a little water on top of the soap puck (souse?) and go to town with the loading.
