Sleepy Suzy got on my lap, and we both had too short a snooze. I'm smoking year 2015 D&R A.B. Rimboche in an undated slight bend, smooth flame grain Wessex Standard egg with a brown accent on the black vulcanite saddle stem. Going to clean a few pipes.
2020 Newminster 400 in a Radice Silk Cut 55
Nightcap in the dedicated Peterson SH Baskerville
Thanks, Mark! That was a gift from my Dad a few years ago. I already had one Santambrogio, and he knew I really liked it. I think he picked a great one!
Have fun on your upcoming adventures with your visiting friends!
Grocery run for last-minute dinner items. Decided to break in (rebreak?) my Black Friday estate Peterson tankard w/Old Gowrie.
Gawith Hoggarth’s Dark Birds Eye in a Savinelli Silver 606 EX
Driving home with the Stokkeby halfzware Amsterdam Shag in the Briarlee Illustrious.
Now really enjoying what’s gotta be my favorite belt lately, a 50/50 mix of GH&Co’s Black and Brown sliced twists in a Kildare 53.
Full moon looks small to the iPhone, but pretty big to the eye.
Speaking of pretty big Gracie’s getting that way, 9 months along now and the bun in her oven is about the size of a German Shepard.
…. And she matches my pipe well.

I have the Peterson Rua plateau filled with some aged Mac Baren Club Blend for a long smoke.
Just opened a tin of Low Country Carolina Christmas 2024. This is my first time smoking this blend. The pipe is a Savinelli Pipes & Tobacco Magazine POY 2007 (24/75). 
Just popped a tin of 2011 McClelland Christmas Cheer. Pipe is a GBD Virgin grade billiard.
Smoking SPC Plum Pudding Christmas Spirit '23 in a Chacom Christmas 2025 bent brandy. Warm mug of glühwein on the side. Feeling extra Christmasy tonight! 
Red Headed Ed sounds like the guy you wouldn't want to cross at the pub!
Peterson Deluxe Navy Rolls in a Nuttens Bing and an Americano

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and green beans dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm almost half way through this bowl of year 2014 FVF in a straight smooth brown year 1923 Dunhill A billiard 60 patent March 9.15 with a tapered black vulcanite stem. This pipe is from the estate of David Cuneo. Community Coffeee, neat, is my drink. Sleepy Suzy is by my side. Molly Danger is snoozin' on m'lady's lap.
I talked to my friend John today. Norton the Nosey was unhappy being in his car on the way home, but once they got inside, he was fine. John said that Norton hasn't stopped purring since then, which is no surprise to me. He's eaten two cans of wet food yesterday and today. He's playing with cat toys. He slept next to John when he went to bed. The happy li'l fella is acting the same way that he did when he was here.

Breaking out some seasonal stuff. WCC Santa’s Sack in a Rubio.
