The Rest Of My Christmas Haul!!!

[petes03]

Well, me and the wife exchanged gifts tonight, since I'm gonna have to work nearly all of next week. I figured I'd have something else pipe/tobacco related, and boy was I right!Some of you may remember the Meer Queen GS calabash she gave me a couple of weeks ago, well this is the rest of what she got me. Now granted, I did give her some hints, but a lot of this she picked on her own, and the only ones that are not new to me are the Mazatec (my daily go-to these days) and the 10 To Midnight. The rest are all new to me, and I cant wait to try them all, I've actually got a Mac B Navy Flake drying right now! Oh, this wasn't all of my gifts, just the tobacco related stuff, anyway, here they are;
1x 100gr. Mac Baren "Navy Flake"
1x 100gr. McClelland "Christmas Cheer 2013"
1x 100gr. Mac Baren "Honey & Chocolate"
1x 50gr. Dunhill "MM 965"
1oz. H&H "Marble Kake"
8oz. H&H "Mazatec"
8oz. H&H "10 To Midnight"
And 1 Pipes & Cigars 2014 calendar!
Now, it's off to the basement to fire up that flake! Merry Christmas to all of you!

Thanks guys! She's a great woman!

Excellent haul. Congrats!

I've tried both of the Mac Baren blends so far, and they're both pretty dang good! I'd say they'll be very good once they have some good jar time on them!

Hahaha!!! Eat your heart out, she's all mine!

 

[petes03]

Of course, there are some days I'd let you have her in a minute! Some days I might even pay you to take her! Lol! But most of the time she's a real sweat heart!

 

[petes03]

Just thought I'd post a pic of the pipe she gave me earlier this month, just seemed right to have it with the rest of the stuff.

I think your wife really really really really really really likes you! LOL. :D

Well played, OP's wife!
My girlfriend did the same for me. Got me this nice savinelli billiard that came a few weeks ago and she let me open it. Then after I opened it, she said, "There's more..." and left it at that. Today, she told me a package should be arriving. I wanna leave work early....I can't handle all the suspense..

 

[petes03]

Thanks guys!

Aquilas, sounds like you got yourself a keeper there yourself!

My wife just went to the mail box a few minutes ago (which neither of us have done in a few days) and found a surprise! A P&C box with my , nearly forgotten about, back ordered tin of Mac Baren Burley London! Wow, the gifts just keep on coming!
Merry Christmas everyone! Be sure to smoke a bowl tonight for me, since I'll be at work! I'm gonna try to squeeze in a bowl or two before work though.

Nice Pete! I smoked my little calabash the other day after reading your thread. Great little smoker. Looks like a great score, way to go wife!

 

[petes03]

Thanks Dave! I'm planning on smoking it again tomorrow along with that Peterson billiard I bought from you at the Chattanooga show (great smoking pipe BTW)! Hope you and yours have a merry Christmas!

BTW, I love that pipe rack in the pic. Did you make that or buy it?

That's actually just a picture on the front of that calendar, Yaz.
