Relaxing after a wonderfully obscene amount of home made pizza withe oatmeal raisin cookies and a bowl of vanilla bean ice cream for dessert. I could still eat, too! :) Anyway, I'm a quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2012 Rolando’s Own in a smooth straight early ‘60s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

Gawith Hoggarth Best Brown #2 in the new Falcon Extra that just arrived in the mail today. puffy

I absolutely love the new pipe, though I gotta say I do find Best Brown #2 to be a little bland and uninteresting. I feel like it needs a bit of dark fired leaf to give it some character and spice it up a touch.

I ended up dumping out the bowl of Best Brown #2 halfway through, giving the pipe a quick clean, then refilling it with Kendal Dark and smoking it down to ash. Now that was what I actually wanted to smoke! 😅
