They are delicious. Come in a 3 pack of beans, carrots and asparagus. Got them at the Costco.

Monday at last! Kicking into gear with Telegraph Hill in my Merchant Service Short Dark Cutty and coffee. (fun with filters: negative, emboss)
Ellipsis flake has become a new favorite of mine. Smoking in a 2016 Hackert.
Match Victorian in the Briarlee Illustrious driving in to work.
Now on to GLP Cumberland in a Ropp MidCentury 513 blasted Dublin.
Happy Monday y’all!

Enjoyed three double egg, ham and cheddar cheese open face sandwiches and a golden delicious apple for lunch. I'm near the half way mark of this bowl of year 2016 D&R Two Timer Gold in a smooth straight late 1970s Charatan Special 4148DC Reg. No. 203573 pot with a black double comfort vulcanite stem. Gold Star Nightwish, neat, is my drink.
Filters can be fun. This combination lets us focus on the SHAPE of the pipe, which is indeed elegant and bold. Continue to have this kind of fun!
Now, this looks like a great morning "wake up" combo. Don't remember having seen this pipe before, but things DO happen fast on this thread. Love it!
Always love seeing this beautiful pipe. The narrowish bowl, and light amber color give it real character!
Thanks. It has changed since that photo. The ppe wasn't smoked then. I'll take a photo of how it is now, and post it soon.Always love seeing this beautiful pipe. The narrowish bowl, and light amber color give it real character!
Doesn't look like the same pipe, does it? Hope this doesn't spoil it for you.Always love seeing this beautiful pipe. The narrowish bowl, and light amber color give it real character!

Now smoking year 2024 KBV Mr. Christian's Haunted Virginia in a straight, black sandblasted 1980s Comoy’s Mark-2 G * 6 (4) bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem.
Well, did a bit of catchup and "like" posting, and commented on a few pipes that caught my eye this morning.
Three smokes since last post. I'll give them to you in retrograde order. Right now, as I type, my usual cheap stogie. A Phillies Blunt grape flavoured. Enjoying it with a cup of cold coffee.
Followed my instincts of last nights post, and my final smoke of yesterday was indeed Magnum Opus in my wonderful "Li'l Pete". I really wish I could make out the actual designation on this pipe, but it's smudged (probably a second) but . . . . "Li'l Pete" will do until some expert enlightens me.
This is my very best "sipping pipe." You don't "draw" on this one. Smallish bowl, small draft tube . . . . ya sip on this one. From the beginning (after break-in) this marvellous little pipe took to complex lat-based fodder like MO, Bengal Slices, and other similar Balkans. I love these tobaccos, and this is the tool I go to now with my re-alignment. Sat back and actually relaxed for well over an hour . . . . let all the troubles of the world go by. This is a great Brahms Symphony pipe.
Began my morning by watching a few news flashes (
) with my usual MM STC Miniature Cob, for a decent 20 minute smoke (which was more than enough given the "entertainment", with my own home brew (now in rotation) Gord's Grape Mix, which is a nice foil to the usual morning cherry.
I'm about to return to the "gnus" and see if I actually saw what I saw online, or if it was only a bad dream. Crazy. Will finish the rest of the cigar whilst doing so.
Leave for stitch removal and other goodies at 2:00 PM. Hopefully they'll remove this hideous catheter, as well, but . . . . it is what it is. Will definitely in any case have restricted mobility for a few days at least, but looking forward to a visit from a few friends tomorrow or day after, hopefully to "break in" my new outdoor backyard picnic table with an as of yet undecided smoke. If it stops raining and warms up. As my English side says, "It's bloody cold out there." Summer has not yet arrived, and the days are getting shorter.
I shall return. Have a great Monday, one and all!

It sure is. Look at how the grain pops out now. The original gloss didn't last more than a year. I got it on my birthday in 2021, and smoking one bowl a day for most of that time sure made a heckuva change. Same goes for the Heritage brown and the Terracotta. Even the Ebony shows a little grain now.No, but it's still a looker!!
