The correct question every morning is not “do you want coffee?” It’s “how much coffee?” As a parent of two young boys (4 & 1) my morning revolves around coffee. This is an unfortunate reality to life, I would much rather be able to wake up well rested but when you have a child jumping on your head at 5am there’s only so much hope for the morning going well.

My shave might be a little all over the place, but I’m shooting for 30 brands and the rules clearly say “the scent of tea or coffee” so I figured both is good!

Shave in yo kitchen? I’ll do you one better than that I figured what’s better than a kitchen inside a kitchen? First things first, make coffee! Gather supplies while pondering bowl options, then set up shaving station with a view! Get lathering making sure to use that good good bean juice. Finally shave and apply splash and profit!

I just recently found this razor at a local antique store and this is my first time getting to use it. I thought it was a super speed at first but thanks to some help here with the ID found out what it is. Pretty cool history that it was only made in 2 years, I think this is the 1941 model but it doesn’t have a date code so best I can tell is by the lack of end caps.

My #photocontest of the day is #Society seeing as making coffee is an “everyday thing” this totally qualifies!
