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

    I am thoroughly enjoying your PAD and TAD journey. At least I think you are suffering from both of these noble afflictions. I’m right there with you, enjoying the ride.

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

    Gawith Glengarry in a Meer. C&D Bayou Morning in a Peterson 338. Trying C&D Visions of Celephais for the first time in a brand new Castello, seems like a good tobacco to break in a pipe, haha. It’s been open since July but every time I’d open the jar and get a whiff I’d just say “Not today my...

    Recommendation for Returning Pipe Smoker who Loves Cigars

    I only bought one batch of Dark Plug and it didn’t have Lakeland essence but I’ve heard that folks have tasted the essence on their batch. I think sometimes there is cross contamination going on. Part of the charm of Gawith. They also make Dark Flake Unscented which I think is Dark Plug sliced...

    (1974) Peterson’s 01S Silver Spigot - Detailed Restoration (Long Read 7 Parts And Over 100 Photos)

    C&D Bayou Morning in an IMP Meer. So far this is one of my favorite VaPers. I still have to try the flake version, Chenet’s Cake, Exclusive, and Stratford.

    In the immortal words of Conway Twitty, “Hello darlin’, nice to see you.” Don’t be scared Paul, I’m talking to your pipe, not you. Love me a tall rimmed bulldog.

    Recommendation for Returning Pipe Smoker who Loves Cigars

    Taking into account your enjoyment of Eight State Burley(I really like it), Red Flake with Perique, and Nicaraguan cigars(my favorite), I’m guessing you like tobacco forward pipe tobacco with exceptions of course. C&D: Old Joe Krantz, Haunted Bookshop, Kelly’s Coin, their Burley Flake series...

    Quiet Nights Help...

    I need to revisit it, I went from liking it to thinking it is a muddy blend that requires all the stars to align to enjoy it. I haven’t given up on it because I have a feeling it’s a blend that might click one day.

    Breaking in this Castello 23(?) KK with year 2015 GL Pease Jack Knife Plug. This blend reminds me of a more natural tasting Old Dark Fired. Naturaly sweet Virginias with the earthy, spicy, and smoky Dark Fired Kentucky. It’s not as deep or sweet as ODF but it tastes better to me. ODF has this...

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

    C&D Pegasus in a Savinelli 320 KS Punto Oro and black coffee. Next up will be the Griswald’s family tradition of picking out our Christmas tree. I really wish my last name was Griswald, I would have named my son Rusty. Gord has his Skippable Drivel and I have my Random Scattered Thoughts.

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

    Am I the only one who noticed the bird food called Real Fat Balls? Gross. Even the tweety bird is looking like “what the hell are you trying to feed me?” You know what, I think every single one of you saw the name but are too high brow to mention it.😜

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

    C&D Rajah’s Court with some Gawith Dark Virginia Cavendish added to it. Savinelli Spring 316KS. Y’all are some smokey mofos, pages and pages of smoke but don’t worry, I’ll like each and every post.

    Peterson POYs From a Decade Before Peterson Started Making POYs

    Congratulations, she is a looker for sure.

    C&D Rajah’s Court in a Celebi Meer. Time to buy some Christmas gifts for the loved ones.

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

    2012 Christmas Cheer in an IMP Meer. Getting ready to smoke some chicken. Reflecting on all of my blessings, there is so much to be grateful for. Of course I did my fair share of bitching and moaning today but I’m making an effort!

    Gorgeous pipe as usual. Your collection has inspired me to purchase higher quality pieces and one day have a proper collection. Considering its age, how is the Old Gowrie holding up?

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

    Gawith Dark Virginia Cavendish in a Savinelli 207 Noce. It is nice to be back amongst my somewhat anonymous online friends.

    What's For Dinner?

    I call this Ragu, some call it Gravy or Sunday Sauce. It’s braised beef chuck roast, pork shoulder or butt, and I add sausage. Pecorino and parsley to garnish.

    Taking My Leave

    God only made one Chasing Embers, you are a true character. Your wit and knowledge will be missed. Your presence loomed large in a positive way. I wish you and your family nothing but the best going forward.
