well, I finally did it. I just ordered a straight starter kit from Razor Emporium. This is me trying to get back on the proverbial horse and improve my self-esteem and such after a number of years in the dumps.
It's been a goal of mine for a number of years to start using a straight razor, and I had the luck to stumble into a compensated consumer panel that I got the final payout tonight. So, picked up the razor kit. One day, I want a Wade & Butcher, but we'll setting into getting sorted out first.
I also bought a fun colored leather slip cover for my beloved Merkur Progress that I hope fits. I've had my eye on it and it's matching brush travel case for a couple of years even though travel is pretty much out of the question for the foreseeable future.
I also picked up some green coffee beans and will be trying my hand at home roasting in the very near future. Wish me luck!
