Washing Itchy

Tom's Natural Toothpaste, flavored with Cinnamon and Clove. So, after years of conditioning, with minty freshness as an afterthought to toothpaste, now I'm left with only a mild food flavor. Overwhelmingly, I am able to tell that my mouth is clean and the so-called "freshness" has been replaced by a state of nature.

And for years my Dad has always proclaimed the benefits of face-washing. I've come to agree. Slap some mildly medicated soap in the hand, have a wash cloth ready as well, and Oh, Henry!

And shaving. Oh, to speak of my arbitrary facial grooming. It feels so nice to keep a landscape and topiary at the ready, for nimble finger fingering.

Something emerges each day a little more sur mon visage.
