***What Are You Smoking, December 2025?***

Cake, coffee, burley, cob, and some chickens in the background.

Decided to get them when eggs were as expensive as beef. Now that egg prices have gone back down, I might break even in 6 years

More C&D Redburn, this time in a Peterson apple. Last night's mix of sleet and freezing rain has turned the driveway not so much into a skating rink but more of a luge course. We got lucky here; no power outages or falling limbs in our area. Not so much for those East of us.

Glad you kept the power. Nothing much worse than those type of extreme weather conditions coupled with a loss of power and no idea when it will come back on. When I was a kid, it made for a real adventure. Fortunately, we had a fire place and dad always kept plenty of wood cut so we stayed warm and cooked on the fireplace.
Currently, in the south, it's still unseasonably warm.

But they are still good for keeping down the number of some yard pests like ticks, etc.

Adrift in the "Daft Days" between Christmas Day and New Year, when those of us blessed with leisure are apt to forget what day it is A post-breakfast smoke of Rattray's Sterling Flake, in a Rattray's Old Perth cutty, with black coffee and a tot of Wood's "100" Navy rum. I'm finding the Sterling improves on acquaintance but still seems to me to lack the harmonious complexities of the Peterson's Irish Flake. What the two seem to have most in common is a similar proportion of Va/Ky mix.

I never know what day it was even before Christmas.

A small consolation prize. They’re basically amusing pets now. At least I now understand all the chicken idioms I’ve been using my whole life

507c folded and stuffed for the second bowl in the Jobey GC. A wonderful smoke.

On this 3rd morning of Christmas had a bowl of Carolina Christmas (another great sample provided by @TubbyInTweed ) in a Jansens of New Orleans belge with black coffee. The coffee is New Mexico Piñon Coffee I got from my son’s girlfriend for Christmas that is super good! Must get more, both coffee and tobacco.

The sun has just broken through the clouds, going to be another warm day.

Can confirm - warm enough I’m outside in shorts and t-shirt at the moment. Was going to fire up the solo stove but thought, what’s the point ?

I hope you all enjoyed Christmas and got to spend some time with those most precious to you. For those of you who didn’t, for those of you who work all through the season, for those of you who struggle with the blues this time of year, may peace be with you.
