I was still hungry, so I ate some strawberries, and am smoking year 2012 Prince Albert in a 2020 smooth light brown, slight bent J. Everett straight grain chubby author with a spalted birch ferrule and a black saddle vulcanite stem in the military mount style. Dunno if I have another smoke before bed time or not.

Passing the first third of this bowl of year 2018 D&R Windsail in an 1890s-early 1900s dark brown smooth straight JD (Joseph B. Desjardins) billiard with filigree metal work with an amberish saddle stem and orific bit. I'll end the day with this smoke. Reading while this bowl lasts.

Good Morning!
Another cold, cloudy start to the day, all the chores are done. I'm enjoying my morning GLP Westminster in a bent MM Apple Diplomat along with a cup of coffee. The first morning of the Pease tobacco sale on smokingpipes.com I put 2 one pound tins of Westminster in my cart, went to log in and when I was done added a tin of Horizon. It brought me back to my order page which informed me that the Westminster pounds were out of stock! I got a half pound and some Gaslight and Spark Plug plus a few more tins to avoid shipping and submitted the order. By the next morning there wasn't a tin of Westminster available in any of the three sizes! My order is scheduled to arrive Monday and shouldn't have to endure any freezing temperatures before being delivered.
 
Good morning BoB! I'm having EGR in the Re-Gent with my coffee this morning. Melting temperatures this morning but a forecast for our first real snowfall starting Sunday night, up to 6" - so we'll get about 2". It's a start. I took a day off physio yesterday, raided the Christmas cake and ate a whole Dagwood sandwich alone. I feel guilty. :confused:

Good morning,
I just got in from work,Luckily it was an easy day, I didn`t sleep well and my wife and are both dealing with a cold. Anyway, Smoking a Bari Wiking bent Rhodesian, Capt black copper,mug of DD coffee. I am going to take some cold meds and hopefully sleep some. These 6 am work days are getting to me lately.
 
Good evening my friends and fellow BoBs. It's been quite a while since I last posted. We have had some horrendous storms here in the UK. Four named storms in the last few weeks to be precise, leaving devastation and flooding in thier wake. There has been two separate floods in my village alone. So I have been a busy bee, helping out where I can, which isn't much, but I can man the refreshment tent, and serve tea, hot soup and snacks.
At this moment I'm at home, wrapped up nice and snug, and about to fill a Meershaum with some self blended Tom Bombadil, A mixture of Virginia, Cavendish and a topping of Rum & Maple.
I hope everybody has a great weekend.

Zippo, good on you for helping out. But that's what we former warriors do, right. Even with the chemo treatments, I still volunteer at the Bethanys Gait equine program for vets with PTSD. Very rewarding. Hope your village can recover soon. Keeping you in our prayers.
 
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. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Fed the ferals and my cats. Abner the Eager wanted back out, but the others are inside for now.

Enjoyed a tall stack of cinnamon raisin French toast with unsalted peanuts and a golden delicious apple on the side. I've passed the half way mark of 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. Lavazza Classico, neat, is my drink. Watching a documentary about moon landings.

The weather is a little warmer, so I took Jacksie for a walk. I enjoyed another Black Friday acquisition, D & R Windsail Silver in a Jansen's N.O. bent volcano with saddle stem. The tobacco was quite dry, so at least it was easy to light and keep lit. The bag note and taste are both quite pleasant. I jarred 12 oz. and the other 4 oz. I put in a humidor with a humidifier in the lid. I look forward to trying it again in a day or two.

Watching my local Texas Longhorns play the Bulldogs in a snooze fest. Fortunately I am ready to fire up a Ser Jacopo rusticated straight billiard certain to wake me up. SPC’s Mississippi River in the bowl. A classic Manhattan with a cherry on top (technically sunk to the bottom) is nearby. Go Horns!

Almost finished smoking Low Country Carolina Christmas 2024 in a medium bend fumed tan crackled year 2020 Ahmet Govem reverse calabash meerschaum with a military mount silver band and black acrylic stem. Working on a review of this blend.

Fired up the little Lorenzetti with a bowl of Haunted Bookshop while I watched some Netflix. Had a jigger of scotch with it. Making dinner, porkchops with onion, garlic, and carrots in a can of mushroom soup. Should be ready in another half hour. Had a bowl of Oriental Silk in the big Lorenzetti earlier. Seems that I pair these two pipes in rotation fairly frequently.

I'm going to try out this
GDB Digby "Orahwood" London with a craggy blast finish c1940-1950 I won on ebay with a bowl of Lord Nelson. I'll take a better picture later.
Basil's making Shepherds Pie with stew meat, brown gravy, red potatoes and creamed and roasted corn. He usually tops it with pie crust but the gluten free thing is cramping his style.
I'm starving so waiting for dinner will test my patience.
