What Are You Smoking Pages.

Merry Christmas to you and yours! A wonderful day here. The wife got me ( with a little coaching from yours truly) an unsmoked Peterson Sherlock Holmes sandblasted Squire 2021 Christmas pipe. GLP Westminster will be the maiden voyage. A glass of Chardonnay is at my side. Cheers!

Did a little snacking, and am smoking year 2010 Mac Baren Burley London Blend in a 2001 black sandblasted three quarter bend Rinaldo Lithos YY bulldog with a tortoise shell acrylic saddle stem.

Chiefing on Heine's Blend in a SMS Meerschaum lattice billiard, turkey just came out of the oven.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, haddock, snow peas, pot roast dinner with strawberries for dessert. I've passed the first third of this bowl of year 2016 Sutliff 507-C Slices in a sandblasted medium bend 1950s Reuben era Charatan Deluxe 11 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

Now smoking year 2016 Peter Stokkebye Luxury Navy Flake in a straight smooth brown post-1964 Parker Super Bruyere 88/F group 3 bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Watching A Christmas Carol starring Fredrick March and Basil Rathbone.

3 Nuns Coins in a MM cob. Home for the night and Basil's making a gluten free pizza for dinner.
I hope you all had a wonderful day and Santa was nice to you.
If you got coal then hopefully it was in a ring or earrings.
Time for a little Christmas TV.

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2010 Amphora Original (Brown) in a full bend barley sandblast Peterson 125th Anniversary 1898-2023 No. 172/330 302 brandy military mount with a silver band and a black vulcanite p-lip saddle stem. Fed all the ferals although Tomato the Brave only ate dry food. He usually gets wet food around this time, but he's gotten very finicky lately, and mostly turns down wet food, including the kind he was always happy to eat. Oh well...

 

[JimInks]

Listing this a few minutes early: several years old Dunhill Elizabethan in a straight smooth, dark brown patent era 1952 Dunhill Bruyere ODA apple 806 B124 with a black vulcanite tapered stem. Getting ready to watch the 1938 version of A Christmas Carol. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Tomato the Brave is snoozin' at my feet. Sleepy Suzy is by my side.

Christmas was a success. Got a new edition of The Hobbit to add to my collection. And the wife remembered that I wanted the new Case knife. In celebration, I smoke some Rouxgaroux in my Ron Powell blasted author.

 

[Singed]

Smooth Black and Golden Cavendish in my Horn meer and then to bed.

 

[JimInks]

Did a little snacking, and am near the last quarter of this bowl of 1990s Edgeworth Ready Rubbed in a medium bend dark brown 2017 Don Warren 17 smooth straight grain rough top Dublin with a multi-brown cumberland stem and ferrule in the military mount style.

 

[JimInks]

Cleaned a few pipes, and am half way through this bowl of year 2014 Astley’s No. 55 in a 1915-1920 straight smooth dark brown BBB Own Make 150 apple with a silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem.

 

[Sid.Stavros]

Hello from Athens-Greece, today we have rain and 52 'F here.

I am smoking Charatan No. 27.

 

[Balisong]

Good Morning!
The chores are done and I caught up on yesterday's post before having a piece of homemade leftover Pizza Dolce, aka Ricotta Pie, for breakfast. Now I'm enjoying GLP Westminster in a bent MM Apple Diplomat along with a cup of coffee.

 

[JimInks]

A quarter of the 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 Sleepy Suzy and Molly Danger. Fed all the ferals except for the fashionably tardy Abner the Eager. I know I'll see him soon, though.

The missus gave me a pipe for Christmas: a post-transition Sasieni 4 Dot Ruff Root Dark 6 Diplomat with acrylic saddle stem. I had picked it out at Blue Room Briars. I'm smoking CS Choctaw and drinking a cappuccino.

 

[Singed]

Spoiling myself with Breakfast of Champions again. Some holiday "whiplash" - tired from the holiday hype, just laying back and coasting today.

Wonderful pipe, E.

 

[Eutychus]

Wonderful pipe, E.

Thanks! It's lovely to look at, and this first smoke is great. It seems that the post-transition Sasieni's are not rated as highly as the pre-transition pipes. I have no basis for comparing, but I think this is a fine pipe. I don't see new Sasienis for sale, so I suppose they didn't survive the transition.

Never did have that pipe yesterday that I spoke of in my last post. But it was cold and rainy all day yesterday and it was and it was a perfect day to sit inside, eat, and drink.

I'm sitting outside having some Plum Pudding in a Peterson 303 Sandblast. About near to perfection, even after stopping for a while to chat with a friend and having to relight.

Right now it's about 50°, no wind. Wonderful weather to contemplate God's rich blessings and watch the dogs murder each other for fun.
