Unfurling like a flower of joy

The Artisania Romera Manchurian Badger I was given by Phil of BullGoose is blooming nicely, it is – to dip into poetic turns for a while – unfurling like a flower of joy.

It is already soft like a fluffy cloud, and easily whips up copious amounts of lather – which it is somewhat reluctant to give up.

Vintage travel razor advertisment

Since I’ve been traveling all day, this seemed quite appropriate…

Trouble of finding that old advertisement is that now I really want one… I don’t need it, but I want it!
