A bowl of some unknown goodness in the freehand pickaxe
Listing this some minutes early: Drucquer & Sons Prince’s Blend in a 1977 straight black rusticated Sir Brent billiard with a silver band repair and a brown pearl grey acrylic stem.
2012 Anniversary Kake in a smooth medium bend 1979 Chippendale (Charatan second) Rhodesian 49 with a black vulcanite stem. Working and listening to the MLB talk on the XM.
Just finished smoking C&D Burley Flake #3 in a 1980s Peterson 314 Full Bend black Sandblast system pipe with a black vulcanite p-lip stem.
Heine's Blend in the third pipe I ever bought ($1.95), a 1974 smooth straight French briar Hadley Apple with a black vulcanite stem.
Almost half way through this bowl of Stonehaven in a 1998 smooth medium bend Peterson Limerick 69 with a nickel band with a black vulcanite p-lip stem. A bottle of Sprite is my drink.
Just finished smoking Stokkebye Natural Dutch Cavendish in a 1970s medium bend smooth Ben Wade Golden Walnut freehand with a black vulcanite stem.
G&H Brown Flake Scented in a 2013 bent MM Missouri Pride Legend with a yellow stem.
Almost finished smoking St. James Flake in a straight sandblasted pre-transition Barling Exel 249 Fossil T.V.F. black billiard with a silver band and military bit.
Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem.
No pipe for a minute or two, been a little busy and a lot blaa-ed.
But I've been eyeballing that Oriental Blend, and I'm thinking I have
a DG Savoy with my name on it.
St. Basil’s Ivan the Terrible in a 2003 smooth medium bend Peterson Sherlock Holmes Series Baskerville with a sterling silver band and black vulcanite p-lip stem.
So, I finally finished filling out my mail in ballot. California, the land of propositions, (and no, I'm not talking about the ones from bleary eyed women with bad teeth in the skid row area of town), where anyone with a few bucks and a stack of signatures gathered outside grocery stores can get their proposal on the ballot. The ballot this year was 6 pages long and came with a voter's guide the size of a phone book. I've been reading and doing online research for two weeks now, but I'm finally done with it. Now for a bit of relaxation and a bowl of R.O's Acadian VaPer in a Mark Tinsky rusticated bent bulldog.
Now smoking aged Hal O’ the Wynd in a smooth three quarter bend 1970s Charatan Belvedere 4211DC with a black vulcanite double comfort stem. Ice water and bergs is my evening drink. Watching the World Series.
I'm thinking Dunhill London Mixture in a Dunhill Canted-Dublin.......
(might get in trouble with the room note on this one).....
Sure glad it's a nice night, weather wise that is.:dork:
C&D Engine #99 in a Comoy's bent bulldog
The last of my stash of year 1978 MacBaren Dark Twist Roll Cake in a 1988 smooth full bend Peterson System Standard XL 315 with a black vulcanite stem, nickel band and p-lip.
I've spent several hours this morning and this evening putting up bulk blending tobaccos in jars and ended up with a little bowl of leftovers from the pan after handling each batch. That mix is what I just finished smoking tonight in this Hendon billiard. The mixture was very tasty although I'll never be able to recreate it. It was smidgen of this and a smidgen of that; can't stand to throw away the leavings.

C&D Corn Cob Christmas Blend in a 1979 no name French briar smooth full bend egg with a black vulcanite stem.
Two bowls of Captain Black original back to back, I think that will
hold me for the night.........................maybe
Half way through this bowl of Old Colonial in a medium bend beater 1979 Aalborg natural freehand made by Nording with a black vulcanite stem. Have enough left for a bowl or so.
Part way through this bowl of STCoP Dobie’s Four Square Virginia in a 2016 PSF POY quarter bend black sandblasted Vermont Freehand egg with an aluminum band and amber tortoise saddle stem.
Just finished work and this bowl of Sir Walter Raleigh in a medium bend 2002 MM Legend cob with a black stem.
Last smoke of the day is 1970s Edgeworth Aromatic (Red) in a light brown 1979 rusticated medium bend Italian Sir Jeffrey Dublin sitter with a flared top and yellow stem. Relaxing and listening to some jazz.
I never can either. Sometimes the mix is good, sometimes not so much...Quote:

Having my 2nd cobful of a mix of Lane 1-Q and Latakia, about 60/40 mix. Is good. We recommend.
Half way through this bowl of Jim's Va/Bur in a 2015 Basil Meadows Bing Crosby Merchant Service replica with a smooth straight thin shank, aluminum band and black ebonite stem. A bottle of Mist Twst is my drink.
Puffing Fribourg & Treyer Cut Virginia Plug from a just-opened tin. This lightly-topped stuff is so smooth and so tasty! I've not seen anyone else on the forum mention it, but you owe it to yourself to give it a try. Nice room note, too.
I have been ill this past week and even missed a couple days work (very uncommon for me). Have not had a bowl of baccy in nearly a full week. Finally am back close to 100%.
So needless to say, I am really enjoying this bowl of Solani Aged Burley Flake in my Savinelli Punto Oro Mr. G. Really hitting the spot.
Now smoking Rich Dark Flake in a straight sandblasted black billiard 2013 PSF POY Kaywoodie with an amber colored lucite stem.
Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 1982 black sandblasted paneled slight bend Savinelli flat bottom sitter with a black vulcanite stem.

A couple minutes away from smoking 12 year old Penzance in a 1990s smooth Peterson Captain Pete XL80 bulldog with a black vulcanite stem and p-lip.
Just finished packaging the items from the auction, ready to go to the post office tomorrow. Now to settle back with a tall bowl of C&D Tuskegee Airman in a MM General and catch up on the football scores.
Ever run out of the 1-Q, hit me up =PQuote:

P&C Russ' Monthly Blend Kaleidoscope in a Comoy's bent bulldog
MacBaren Navy Flake in a 1981 Ascorti Black Billiard Business with a military bit and pearl gray acrylic stem.
Today has been a nip bippy around here. So I figured it was a good day for my "comfort food".
Captain Black Original and Royal, and then just cause I'm an a$$, I enjoyed a Sancho Panza
Double Maduro cigar. Of course I had another bowl of CB Original after that.
