    What Are You Smoking Pages.

    Had a bowl of cult blood red moon in a mm cob. Desert for breakfast. Hours after, I had a bowl of my mixture 965 match in another mm cob. Now, after lunch I have had a bowl of captains nuts also in a mm cob.

    Question about canning jars

    I use them too. I wash some and others I use just having blown any dust out of them. I don't think they're all made the same. Some have a film, some have a funny smell, others come out clean and perfect. If you didn't notice the problem before, you're probably fine.

    Suggestions wanted

    There are better and more qualified opinions to be found here but ill give it a go. TCS's website calls Tidewater a light Virginia. If it were me, I would add some burley and unsweetened black cavendish. From there, I would taste it and see what direction I want to go. Perhaps adding a little...

    Good morning and happy Monday BoB, Today I had a bowl of Weybridge in my mm cob. Gosh, this blend smells just like putting your nose into a bottle of white vinegar. The smell is really strong. Tastes fine though. I had a great conversation with a coworker about selling things we make in shops...

    Good morning BoB, Captains nuts in my mm cob. Last night, I spent hours in the latrine when I wanted to be sleeping and it's not over yet. I'm so out of it, I nearly brushed my teeth twice this morning. Earlier, I thought I had seen somebody here say they were drinking sencha. When I say I...
