    Best City for a Pipe Smoker

    Ah yes, now I see a n north Rhine westfalia where I live smoking in any gastronomy is strictly forbidden. But in other federal states there are still bars under 75 square metres, without serving hot food smoking can be allowed.

    Best City for a Pipe Smoker

    Give me a hint please, where are those bars located? I don’t know any public bar, where you can smoke inside over here. But that one is true, Pfeifen Heinrichs is the place to go for pipes, tobacco and cigars in Cologne. And there are still a few tobacconists around that sell pipe tobacco.

    Autochrome Photography

    That’s a book with the work of Heinrich Kühn a widely unknown german pioneer of photography. He was into early autochromes and other pittoresque techniques as gum bichromate around the beginning of the 20th Century.

    Autochrome Photography

    The drawback of the rangefinder Leicas and lenses was triple the price of a Nikon or Canon flagship of those times. Never could afford one.

    A Stilton Dinner

    I’m a big fan of Stilton, just a different league compared the French, danish or Italian blue cheese. Though most of European blue cheese is alright in their own terms. It depends a lot on the cost and quality you can get. Not every Roquefort or Gorgonzola is ripening to its heights.

    Isn’t it a moonwalk thread? What an unforgettable moonwalker M. J. was, and what a gifted musician and composer.

    Gardening Talk

    Grape tomatoes are early, this year we have them, they are early. I don’t count them as real tomato because I stuff them in my mouth every time I pass by and see some red ones. They don’t make their way into the kitchen.

    Anyone Have Any Thoughts on Cooking Carp Steaks?

    Not only polish, in Germany it is as well a Christmas dish and New Year’s Eve. It’s a great tasting sweet water fish spread all around Europe. There are several recipes.

    Travel Bag

    I have a domke camera bag, very thin very smart because it lacks of the usual padding those bags have and carry my Nikons and several lenses in that bag for years now on a daily basis, separated from one another only with a minimum of pvc foam and fabric. Of course I carry the bag close to my...

    Bulging tins

    Bulging is good. Just look out for the Swedish Hering speciality Surströmming, known as most stinking fish in the world, exploding tins included: https://www.surstromming.com/surstromming-challenge.html

    Travel Bag

    It’s okay and the price is much cheaper than any of the so called pipe bags. Who needs padding?

    ***What Are You Smoking, July 2023?***

    First I intended to make a poker but messed up the shank on a wood lathe. I cut it of and made a different short nosewarmer like pipe with steel tube and a handmade stem from an ebonite rod. It smokes very well, this time a burley blend, Ralph‘s Burley Cup from Tom Darasz in Kiel.

    I also was surprised, but there you have it. It’s not cheap.
