Daily Gratitude
Thanks to u/iamhonestlylying for the soap smoosh. Thanks to ShavinginCT for the fragrance sample. Thanks to EldrormR for including some free blades with my MM24. Thanks to my dad for buying the donut for the photo contest. Thanks to our wonderful judges and other people for putting this whole thing together.

Daily Mistakes
none? I am perfect? yes, probably.

Daily Writeup
Well today was my closest shave so far in the lather games because of the daily challenge so that was pretty cool but I don't have my alum block because I am at my dad's house for the weekend and I have a wee bit of irritation. I also decided that I wouldn't load the smoosh into the bowl but instead just lather off of the wax paper and it actually worked nicely, I don't have much time to write this because today is my family's D&D night and they are waiting on me lol.

Daily Theme Points
Vetiver, or vetyver, not much more to say.

Daily Relevant Post Shave & Fragrance Points
I thought it was finally time to break the streak of a new aftershave each day because I simply don't have enough aftershaves, today I used the cologne russe aftershave because it is a darker scent much like vetiver. The fragrance has vetyver in the name which is actually vetiver but just spelt different.

Daily Challenge
Finally a decently close shave, every other day I have been doing only one with the grain pass but today's against the grain pass cleared up some stubble that has been there for a while, meaning tomorrow will have nothing to shave. It did leave a bit of irritation but not that bad so I guess GeoFatBoy knows what he is doing.

Hardware Scavenger Hunt
No new hashtags so if you want to know about these ones you can see my previous posts.

Photo Contest
Today is actually donut day so while my family was getting our free frazils for free frazil friday in Utah we picked up a gas station donut to honor impressivedonut.

TL;DR
Close shave? Irritation? I win rookie of the year thank you very much give me my prize.
