2020-04-11, Saturday

Acceptable day, not too sunny and cool: pleasant...

I am preparing to face Easter with whomever I want, as I have done for the last thirty years.
And that government regulations coincide with my choices is just a lucky combination.
I am looking forward to the joyous rite of hunting for eggs in the now tall grass and I admit that having to hide them by myself takes a lot out of the excitement of finding them.
Luckily my bad memory mitigates this situation: last year I found one. hidden in 1999!

The day inspired me aromatic fragrances and what better than Lusitanian soap?
Describing the fragrance is beyond my abilities and, reading the aromatic components, I can't recognize a single one but the important thing is the end result!

To shave, I have chosen again the Brazilian machine whose delicacy equals only the caress of a Balinese dancer.
Less sensual, though ...

Dramatic note: I gained a pound. Last night I had no appetite: I was hungry! But I think make it up in a couple of days!
Next Monday for the ritual déjeuner sur l'herbe I'll be splendid as usual.
I just hope the neighbors won't indulge in any stinky barbecues...

Saturday morning:

Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/new Derby
Bundubeard Kameelperd’s Kick SS
Prep ASB
Alcolado Glacial Menthol Splash
Polo Green EdT

All week I’ve been enjoying Jaco’s magnificent soaps - did I ever have fun with this Kameelperd. From the minute the lather got on my face the menthol blast started hitting me and it got progressively colder, my eyes cried “tears of joy” and the postshave feeling was wonderful. I had a good, long massage with the Prep, and the Alcolado Glacial put another crapload of icicles in my face. The brand new Derby massacred all that rough stubble and left me smoother than silk - what a shave!

Stay safe and healthy, my friends!

Nearly 5 days without a shave. Not an issue for the Big Snake. BBS in 2 with a third as a clean up pass which really wasn’t necessary. The Cobra & Super are nearly unbeatable as a combo. Great day and shaves to all. Stay safe my Shaving bro’s.....​

Saturday:

hot shower with Pecksniff's Grapefruit & Citron shower gel
Maggard Grapefruit PSO
Lady Gillette 3 passes
Derby Extra Super Stainless (1)
TOBS Grapefruit cream in a warm bowl
Omega boar
Thayers Cucumber WH
Black Ship Grooming White Whale A/S

Things were going really well until I lathered up for my second pass and the brush squirted out of my slippery hand. It did sort of a pin ball ricochet off the sink to the top of the toilet to the edge of the sink to the side of the toilet tank lid to the side of the vanity to the side of the toilet tank to the side of the vanity to the seat of the toilet to the bottom shelf of the vanity to the side of the toilet bowl to the floor spewing lather anywhere and everywhere.

Well, at least I smell good and the bathroom has been cleaned.
