Super!

I know that @gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social, @walden@sub.wetshaving.social, and @PorkButtsNTaters666@sub.wetshaving.social have received their Old Strathcona smushes.

I just wanted to make sure that @whosgotthepudding@sub.wetshaving.social, @DaveWave94@sub.wetshaving.social, and @djundjila@sub.wetshaving.social received one as well. I can’t remember if you already sent me something.

A big “Thank You!” to all the first responders that are called into harrowing situations at a moments notice. Especially today, as NY firefighters continue to struggle with health issues related to their support after the 9/11 attacks. The number of FDNY lives lost from illnesses since 9/11 now exceeds the death toll of 343 from the day the Twin Towers fell.

It certainly fits the bill with an amazing scent from Ben and the Darkwing base from Vida.

Have you tried Armonía?

Now that you mention it, I’ve been missing the scent too. Maybe I’ll use it tomorrow…
