    Hello fellow Pipe People. I used to hang out here a lot in 13-14 but had a financial crisis so the tobacco went first. Even though I hoarded quite a few tins and jars, I'm going to end up running out. I'm really into Virginia,and VaPer flake. So I decided on building a nice cellar again...

    Re-Starting Pipe Smoking

    I took a 6 month break and to me it's like riding a bike. I even started back on the tobacco I started on. I am glad I started smoking a pipe again. I really enjoy it.

    A Bad Tin

    I just received a tin of Mac Baren Dark Twist Roll Cake that was missing the dark center in the middle of the coins. I emailed Mac Baren and told them I was not pleased with the tin I received and attached a picture of the tin. Do you think I'm in the wrong? I want the tin replaced.
