2021 is trying hard to ingratiate itself with the users: yesterday it rained washing the snow off the yard and today there is a nice fog.
It's also true that it can't effectively oppose the sun that is trying to illuminate these flat lands, but the year is young and it still has to make its bones...
I've been listening to the news on TV and I must make amends for my rare and veiled criticism of our politicians and recognize that they have a social conscience: they are truly committed to recycling!
Recycling themselves, it's true. But it's always a start....
When I shaved there was a saudade atmosphere very suitable for Chet Baker and that was the first choice made.
The trumpet guided me among soaps and the Valobra which, with its albionic fragrance, inspired me immediately.
The texture of the soap and the diameter of the bowl made me choose a British brush that maintains an excellent backbone and has the right size.
A sense of economy, not unrelated to the desire to free up some inventory, made me decide to insert a long unused Russian component: a blade that I liked at the beginning of the addiction and it turned out to be a winning option even though I sensed a difference between the two edges of the blade.
The aftershave balm, also excellent in scent, prepared my skin for a a cloud of cologne that is among my favorites.
I lasciviously indulged in a gluttonous brunch before getting down to business for you.
PS. The photo is not crooked: it's an effect induced by the earth's rotation.
