What soap/cream did you use today?

Squadron Shave Soap - Empire  A bit of a head scratcher my initial impression was this was a Lily of the Valley type of a scent as it reminded me of a more balanced Catie's Bubbles Muguet but no it's listed as a Marine scent with not mention of that note.  I seem to be in the zone of late maybe some kind of shaving nirvana as I'm enjoying wonderfully slick shaves and great performing razors/blades or it could just be I'm just getting old and my beard can take anything I throw at it.  Nice Scent

Ethos ShaveMD…….Yes….it’s spectacular in cold weather..far, far from solely a warm or hot weather scent..

Perfect for cold days and the Holiday Season!

I positively love Christmas.  Did t used to.  In fact there was a time I despised it.  All the commercialism.  Christmas showing up in stores even before Halloween is over?  No thank you.  But as I’ve aged, and grandkids entered the picture, and I’m not getting h arranged by my kids for the latest gizmo, I’m starting to enjoy it more and more.  We focus on traditions and family more than gifts and Santa.  We’ve forgone all the hubbub and choose another family to shower joy on.  (There was more than one lean year with my clan.)  Tomorrow if I get my work done we are headed to the cabin where 5 kids, 5 in-laws who,are now my kids, 15 grandchildren (6 boys and 9 girls) and a bun in the oven will meet me for a weeks worth of family time.  Will there be fun activities?  You bet!  Sledding, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, ice fishing, ping pong, foosball, and hot tubbing.  Might even work up a polar plunge if folks are up for it.  Yeah, I’m changing my mind and attitude thus the seasonal soaps are doing me good.  


This is our Christmas from two years ago
 
I’ll stay on some shoes for a hike.                                        They like to ice fish
