Wow, you guys have been March acquisitioning some really fab gear! Well done :okay:

We’ve had a ton of packages delivered here at Chez chazt since my last post above. The best delivery of all was grandchild number 4. Baby Sister, aka Grace, was born Friday morning in the wee hours. The doctors had an initial concern, which upon investigation with an ultrasound scan turned out to be nothing. Baby is fine. My daughter, baby’s mom had a bit of hypertension so they put her on a bp medication and kept her for observation. Mom, dad and baby sister are finally coming home tomorrow. I’ve been with my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter since Thursday morning. Lemme tell you. It’s intense. I’m up at 7 to drink coffee and get dressed before she gets up at 7:15 (her nightlight turns from pink to green and she’s then allowed to call for her parents :D). tbh, now at age 67 “solo parenting” is quite extreme to say the least. It’s great, great fun but really exhausting! But that’s not the point of this thread, so I apologize for digressing and return to regularly scheduled programming.

Here we go.

First, some reduced acidity coffee. I’ve been hallucinating and thought this would help :D

A few shave and assorted grooming goodies also appeared. Dr. B’s sent me a coupon for stuff I actually use and happened to need. So wtf I stocked up.

While shopping for birthday cards and gift wrap (my eldest grandchild is four years old next week), I found this at a local Dollar Tree store. They also had blue and green versions, but neither was my cup of coffee, so amber won.

This is all since Thursday. It’s now Saturday night. I gotta pay these bills in two weeks. But guys, I couldn’t resist. It was futile. Seven of Nine City. The soap dish was part of my larger splash and soap order, but was posted separately.

I’ve been itching to try the GOAT so I scratched when they offered a deal.
Paired it with my old Weber Wave handle which was the very first piece of aftermarket kit I bought when I got bit by the bug.

One more (and final BGS) order coming in next week. Until then I’m looking forward to a fresh shave in the morning. Gotta look smooth for baby Gracie!

I'm reading good things about VR2 vegan, VR1 was excellent although a bit difficult for my lathering technique to make a proper dense lather. Let's see..

Scent is very bright for my taste. Not my cup of tea.

Throw it out the bloody window, next time, listen to your wife, if you really wanted to smell good.

Thanks guys! Much appreciated :D

@Randy, I haven’t used it yet, but having sniffed the bottle a few times I can see why they‘re charging a buck and a quarter :whistling:
