Vanilla Cream Flake in a Rattay bulldog. This tobacco is becoming my Corona comfort food. Also note to self: no more late night half drunk browsing of Estervals website... now I have another pipe and 500gr of tobacco on the way that I don't really need.
Union Square and some coffee out on the porch, right now, delving into some early US history after @mawnansmiff posted a question that got the pot boiling in my brain. I’m a history nerd.

Neighbors across the street are up to something noisey over in their back yard. A loud scraping sound, like shoveling gravel off of concrete, followed by a rather alarming *thump* has been emanating from their realm since 8am.
Penultimate bowl of HU Soraya in an Emperor Supreme billiard. The Soraya is a great first smoke of the day and the Emperor billiard is great, though for a "Supreme" grade it has its share of fills. The Empire are hit-or-miss: I have another Emperor bulldog that's just an uncomfortable smoker.
