June 2020 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Thanks, Tim. It’s a battle sometimes but it has its moments.

 

Excellent, Keith! Glad the Janus turned out great for you.

 

Glad to do so Clint.

 

Thanks Tim! It may be that my water/soap ratio was so lopsided that it affected the texture and solubility of the soap. It's a shame because it really has a great menthol kick. I would say the other CF soaps would not have this problem because they aren't heavily mentholated.

 

Beautiful razor and may you have many nice shaves with it, Keith. Neal makes great brushes and yours is no exception. That's great that CF Civet gave a good performance, but I don't recommend Cryogen.

 

So far,
the burn in, then...
Grilled burgers
Smoked almonds
1st chicken
2nd chicken and tater
Boneless skinless chicken breasts
Chuck roast, Boston butt style

Prolly do a pulled pork shoulder, then some ribs this weekend. That should conclude my testing and make me ready for any TSD guests showing up with 6 packs of Hamm's Special Light.

So far, a great versatile cooker that I wish I had years ago.

As far as the party....... Unfortunately, here in the United Soviet Socialist Commonwealth of Winselpainia the state furor is still threatening to shoot on sight those not wearing masks, unless, of course, they are ripping down the statue of some dead guy on a horse.

 

No disrespects to BGE, the premier kamado style cookers.

The Weber Summit Charcoal has only been out a couple of years.

 

Shame about the soap, Joe,. Nice shave though.

Congrats, Keith! Cool razor!

SmakeBite is a decent menthol, but if you’re looking for something comparable to Cryogen w/ o the lathering issues, check out Krampert’s Frostbite. He’s based out of Maine, and that’s all he pretty much makes besides his matching AS

Good morning!

Fantastic face freezer of a shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Nearly silent alum.

While picking today's software I started to wonder if I picked the wrong time of year to focus on finishing off a soap. I feel like I'm missing out. I really don't consider myself as a scent for the season type of guy but I do have an assortment of software that seems a more refreshing way to start the day than Astra Planeta. I think I'll put my plan of finishing a soap off until the weather cools.

Have a great day!

Thanks, Jeff. I am curious how you gleaned that information...

 

Stunning, Blair. Your ASW is much darker than mine.

 

Looking forward to the upcoming shaves.

 

That's what they're there for, Tim---to use them. Enjoy.

 

Thanks, Clint.
