Well, that didn't take long. So I loaded up my Hardcastle's Crown bent billiard with Arango Balkan Supreme and refilled my coffee. 🤓

A busy week has kept me away from the briar or cob and bowl. I've been organizing and cleaning in storage areas, and now have a break with Half and Half plus PS English Oriental Supreme mix in an MM diplomat bent apple with Typhoo Extra Strong tea. The stem and shank are loose, so time for bees wax. Jarring tobacco this morning got me motivated to mix another batch of Bluff Blend, so hopefully that will be on the menu later.
 
Almost half way through this bowl of pre-2014 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 in the military mount style. Fed my cats, and all the ferals except for the absent Abner the Eager. Watching The King of Cool documentary about Dean Martin. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am half way through this bowl of year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Gold Star Hawaiian Kona Extra Fancy, neat, is my drink. Went out to walk a little to test my foot and leg, and everything's finally healed up. Got the mail, and saw a very happy Abner the Eager hiding behind my car. I picked him up and he purred all the way to the food bowl inside the house. Harry the Hairy seemed a tad jealous, but he'll get over it. Tomato the Brave is eating, too. Daisy the Feral Princess is snoozin' on her blanket. We're getting ready to watch one of our favorite movies, Rio Bravo.

Wet and 60F, so ceasing busy outside work and having a bowl of Bluff Blend in an MM General with forever stem and sencha tea. This time I added a couple of pinches of C&D Habana Daydream. I will likely watch college football the restvof the day. I'll break that up with looking at some trail cam pictures, as I saw a big buck on the Bluff today. Glad my white vinegar cleaning of one cam's battery box worked, so I can have videos too.
 
Confession, Old Joe Krantz knocked me on my ass. Definitely more punch than I expected. I read your review, Jim - now I have a benchmark for moderate to high nicotine content. Still a good smoke, I like the flavour. I have to remember to use it in a small to medium pipe :) .

Putting together a bowl of Crooner in my Rossi Canadian.
 
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, cod and snow peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm close to finishing this bowl of year 2018 Mac Baren HH Burley Flake in a straight smooth dark brown 1918 Pre-Republic Peterson’s Dublin 2 apple with a silver band and a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

Now smoking year 2021 first production Watch City Simply Orange Virginia in a black sandblast medium bend Peterson POTY 4AB No. 182/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Time to clean a few pipes. Harry the Hairy is walking around the house trying to figure things out. I was surprised to see him use the litter box since he acts like he's never been in a house before we started letting him in for short periods of time.
