My Shaving Pot
I love shaving! I have said this before, and I am repeating it. I love shaving!
When I shave, I become a little boy messing around with his daddy’s shaving stuff. Not only do I shave my face, but I shave my head, too. When I am all lathered up, I look as if I am wearing a white balaclava with a small rectangular space showing only my eyes and nose.
My shaving mug was a soup mug. It had a 4-inch diameter (10.16 centimeters) and was 4 inches deep. Using this mug was okay, but I wanted more room to muck around and whip up a rich lather. So I used the bottom part of a water jug and a paper towel holder to make a plastic shaving mug. This mug would match my plastic shaving stand made from a water bottle and paper towel holder. But a voice in my head said, “The hot water you use to shave may melt the plastic.” And so I abandoned the plastic shaving mug and bought a cooking pot.
