My wife is at a concert, my kid is at her grandparents, and I'm home alone. So, I made an Old Fashioned. In all my years of whiskey drinking I've never had one so I thought, why not? This is a tasty beverage! I didn't have any cherries but there is a bit of orange muddled in there. Speaking of a muddle, the bottom of a hammer handle works pretty well.

First experience with The Holy Black Trading Company.  Liked the Gunpowder name of this soap, although the scent is very subtle, so will have to try and detect more of it next shave.  Having been to a reenactment of the Siege of Louisbourg, Nova Scotia (1758) between the muskets and cannons of the British and the French – know well what gun powder smells like as the air was full of billowing blue clouds.  The soap does however deliver very explosive lather . . .



Obtained another MS 30mm Silvertip as was intrigued by the new colours they put out recently, including a 24mm that looked more butterscotch.  After contacting Maseto to see if they could send a 30mm in butterscotch they answered that one was available on their site – however looked more yellow than butterscotch.  And after arriving today, it really is yellow – but the knot seems fabulous, a bit lower with whiter tips than their previously acquired Silvertip, so will try out shortly.
