I didn’t think that Z would get kicked before relative newcomers like Macduffs and Talent. Also, a remarkable rally by Noble Otter which seemed to be in trouble when I went to bed yesterday, and what’s going on with Mammoth? I’m loving the horse race aspect of this format.
For today’s theme, I’m going with Courtney’s soap. SW has one of my favourite bases and I enjoy the scent. The theme also reminds me of a misunderstanding I had for the first months in the hobby, where I naturally assumed that Catie’s Bubbles was being made by some lady called Catie, I learned about Chris and how he basically created the brand to prove a point about vegan bases in the 2021 LG podcast, at least that’s the narrative I remember now. I could also have gone with CGC, another brand that I enjoy a lot, but today felt like a Pomona day.
