Once again you will be taken on a journey. And whether you start with THE VIDEO or you read the post first is up to you.
Now, I have a YouTube channel and at the current apartment I shoot my videos in the kitchen, so the daily challenge given for today was nothing special for me and I got to brainstorming. Going back in my mind, I recalled that in previous Lather Games, many things have been thought of and used, from spatulas, to mixing robots, etc. But today I think that once again my ingenuity got the better of me.
That's right folks, welcome to CookShaving with Mr. TangerineSky. I realised that no one has ever BAKED lather and used it to shave. In the video I stayed in character, but here, I will tell you exactly what happened. So I mixed my lather, used WAAAAY more soap than I usually do and then put the lather in a tray for muffins. I set it in the oven, put it on around 200 degrees(Celcius) and went for a smoke to wait 20 minutes, cause that's what I thought up of initially.
I went back, the kitchen smelled wonderful of cookies and other gourmand delightfulness, it was like I was baking for real. Lo and hehold when I opened the oven and saw NOTHING, the damn lather had disappeared... Where is u/Priusaurus when you need some lessons of thermodynamics. I realised I fucked up, but I wasn't gonna give up, I had set myself the task of shaving with baked lather and gosh darn it, I was gonna do so!
I re-lathered and just filled out one of the muffin slots to the top and did the same temperature for 3 minutes. I actually watched it and stopped before it started to disintegrate. The end result was such that a coconut soap maker would envy. The structure of the lather had become a big fluff, and all the water had gone to the bottom of the tray, genius I say!
I do have to admit that slapping this abomination of a lather on my face felt very nice and comforting, the smell was elevated, the temperature was very warm, I could even say, hot(almost burned my face in the beginning).
The shave actually went better than expected, I did a one pass, cause the lather was disintegrating and I don't think another pass would have been possible, but one pass ATG with the Rex Envoy was enough for a DFS! All in all I had a blast executing my idea and filming it! After all was said and done I was content and satisfied!
I'm glad you were with me tonight, and I hope to see you in another ShaveCooking with Mr. TangerineSky! Stay safe!
