    I can say the same about myself. I live in Metrowest MA, but never picked up the famous Boston area dialect.

    SOTD: 05/22/2025

    Razor: Guerrilla Aluminum
    Blade: Filoso , 2nd use
    Brush: Zenith Boar Retro Multicolored
    Bowl: Nordic Shave Design Celtic/Runic Bowl
    Preshave: Ethos Grooming Essentials First Lather Oil
    Soap: Adopted Acres Soap Co. Pineapple Under the Sea Cream
    Aftershave: Adopted Acres Soap Co. Pineapple Under the Sea Aftershave
    Balm: Ariana & Evans Post Shave Serum Lotion
    Additional Care: Osma Alum
    Additional Care: Thayers Facial Toner: Rose Petal

    Today I went with a new scent from Adopted Acres I received the other day and I went for my second shave with the Guerrilla aluminum.

    On an unusually cold, wind-swept day here in NY I wanted to go for something to bring me up as the weather (and the Knicks) had gotten me a little low. I knew instantly what would do the trick. I grabbed for a very special delivery I received earlier this week. Adopted Acres Pineapple Under the Sea! The soap is in honor of Eli, a boy who dear to my heart, for his birthday! Eli helps his folks at Adopted Acres pick scents, make soaps, and pack orders! This scent is amazing just like Eli. I’ll let his folks sum up Eli and the notes from their Etsy site:

    “Bright. Playful. One-of-a-Kind—Just Like Eli.
    Dive into a joyful burst of scent with Pineapple Under the Sea, a limited-edition shaving soap inspired by Doug & Cara’s son, Eli—our 15-year old who has Downs Syndrome.

    Eli loves SpongeBob SquarePants, belly laughs, sounds effects with his video games, chocolate donuts, cats, monster trucks , and a cereal bowl piled high with Fruity Pebbles with marshmallows. This soap is a tribute to his favorite things—with a scent that’s as bold and fun as he is.

    Scent Notes:
    • Juicy Pineapple, Sea Salt, Wood Smoke, Charred Cedar, Fig, and Brown Sugar”

    And let me tell you this soap is pure joy and love! The scent is amazing! The sweetness of pineapple and brown sugar are perfectly matched with a smoky salty ocean vibe. The ultimate summer, fun, bright, energetic scent! I feel like a million bucks after the shave and smell like it too! And if you’ve never tried Adopted Acres it’s rich, thick, lather. You could shave with a shard of glass and you’d be fine. Plus, the best post shave feel I get from anywhere. Pineapple Under the Sea is a must have! For the beautiful coming weather and for a day like Long Island, NY is having today when you wish the weather was better! Thanks to Eli I have a turned around day! Thanks Eli! And Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!

    Friday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Col. Conk Amber Shave Soap
    Frank Shaving Badger
    Supply SE Injector
    Supply Black Label Blade
    CWR
    Derby City Chop Shop Winter Reserve AS

    The Col. Conk Amber Shave Soap lathered well with Frank Shaving Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply SE Injector Razor and the Supply Black Label Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Derby City Chop Shop Winter Reserve After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
