5lb Baby

[mortonbriar]

There are a few special moments in life, and holding your 5lb bag of tobacco for the very first time is definitely one of them! Ain't he cute though?

Picked up four of those last year during a sale.

Awwww! It looks just like its dad. It strikes me that I weighed a little over 5 pounds when I was born, which was preemie in those days, but today would probably not even rate in an incubator. The doc still proclaimed me "perfect," which was kind. You aren't giving out cigars, are you?

 

[elasmo]

I hope it grows up to be 100+ lbs one day

 

[sandollars]

Is it a Boy or a Girl?

Check under the LEAF

[mortonbriar]

Is that whole leaf Izmir?

Yes, he is! (very proud Papa)

 

[Country Bladesmith]

So are plugs in the future?

 

[leonidas]

...where did you adopt it???

 

[supdog]

Are you going to roll some cigars or process it for the pipe?

 

[mortonbriar]

So you adopted a Turkish child?

Actually, we like to say he adopted us.

Home grown burley, various virginia whole leaf, maybe a cheeky 1% of latakia and a whole lot of Izzy will be getting plugged!!!!! Probably various virginia/oriental ratio plugs too, I have some other oriental leaf to play with....
