I saw the box in the mail when I got home from work and stacked it on the kitchen table.

My dear wife Karen is the one who gets boxes by post, not me.

This one had my name on the top, she pointed out before opening the square carton.

I will look good and feel good.

Oh, what was inside.

My sister-in-law Lynne and niece Stormy had sent me a so-cool shaving brush and cream.

They’d read my blog post about the new Gillette razor a bit back. They thought I deserved some special accompaniment.

They sampled their stock from their Hot Springs store Dapper & Debonaire.

My next pass over my neck and cheeks, will be well-pampered. That Island Man cream smells so fine.
