    How did you get the pics from inside my Den? I thought I told security to keep out the riff raff. Heads will roll for this!

    Thank you, sir.

    The help and inspiration on my journey from yourself and others here at TSD has been really great.

    I can certainly see why a shavette is your favorite tool.

    Growing up, a neighbor always said "Don't buy chocolate........ that is where they put all the work-off and floor sweepings."

    I like Breyer's vanilla better than other brands. If you look closely it is loaded with little dark specks. I figured they were the only ones throwing the sweepings in vanilla too.

    :cool:

    I seriously like all ice cream. We made a batch of homemade ice cream once, and the inner container leaked salt water into the ice cream mix. I tried to eat it anyway, but it was too salty. I shed a few tears that day as we scrapped the whole batch.

    Most of my ice cream these days comes from a machine like this. I can stack a full 8 ounces into a 1/3 cup bowl. I just keep swirling and building...poetry in motion. Pure artistry. I have it about 3 times a week. I guess this would be considered the "Williams" of the ice cream world. I'm a simple man.

    Surely you don't really believe that to be the end result of a member of the Mayflower Dry Soap Society going out and using something other than Williams, boar, gem, and Pinaud?

    Soap: Nuàvia - Blu

    Excellent 2 pass shave with these products. The JR #45 whipped up the soap into a great lather. I know, it snowed yesterday, however, it is the first time I've been able to find this stump in months. :)

    Dry soap delivery from Plymouth Rock.

    And people thought these things hauled household goods. Hmph!

    We have a couple of old tractors as well. They don't get used much any more since we got rid of the cows and planted the farm in pine trees.
