    There.. I did it.

    I’ll leave most aros out to dry at least overnight. Some more.

    I Asked an A.I. Image Generator to Show me Pipe Smoking...

    Is he holding glasses in his other hand? Might wanna put those on. He’s gonna poke an eye out!

    Rehydrating OLD Cigars

    I’m not the sentimental type. Not a bad idea though. We’re going camping for Father’s Day. I’ll rehydrate them and fire one up around the fire. If they suck, I’ll toss them in and put something nice in my pipe.

    Watch City Old Dominion Tins

    It’s double the price of regular Old Dominion. Could the cut make THAT much of an improvement? Maybe. I’ll never know.

    Rehydrating OLD Cigars

    I really don’t think I’ll become a regular cigar smoker. I’m happy with my pipes. I just found them and thought I’d ask y’all’s opinions before tossing them.

    Favorite Morning Blend

    I don’t usually get a morning smoke, but on the occasions that I do, I’ll usually grab a vanilla aromatic. HOWEVER, I’m currently working through a tin of Saint Espresso, and believe it or not, it goes rather well with coffee.

    A Match for Capstan Blue?

    Country Squire’s Faulkner Flake is rumored to be close.

    What's For Dinner?

    Since winter is giving us one last kiss goodbye (damn snow), I decided it was soup day. Had a ham bone in the freezer, so I made a pot of split pea and ham with some toasted cheesy garlic baguettes to dip. Come on, spring! Any time would be great.

    Any Big, Angled Lighters Out There?

    For use with churchwardens only if you value your eye brows.

    Any Big, Angled Lighters Out There?

    This little Visol has been a workhorse. I’m not careful with it AT ALL, and three years in hasn’t failed me. The side wheel makes it super easy to strike. Paid $50 for it.

    Any Big, Angled Lighters Out There?

    😁😁😁😁😁 I’m only kinda joking. I keep my nice lighters in the garage, where I smoke 90% of the time. If I’m out back grilling, I reach for one of these to light up. They work pretty well, actually

    What's For Dinner?

    Homemade chili and cinnamon rolls on this cold, slightly snowy evening.

    Rehydrating OLD Cigars

    Oh wow. I was planning at least a month. I’ll keep your suggestion in mind though. Thanks!
