***What are You Smoking, April 2022?***

[Zero]

Found a little jar of Sutliff Dark Decadence that's been in my tobacco drawer since 9/19.

Enjoying it in my skull and tentacles meer by Celebi with some Prunier VS Cognac:

Man, that pipe looks heavy end to break your teeth. You must have some strong chompers. The design goes with the pool ??

*Heavy enough. Damn fat thumbs

It's heavy for a meer but light for a pipe.

Reiner Long Golden Flake in a Deschane. Find this opened tin, it's had to have been lying around well more than a year. Nearly crunchy dry, I decided to give it a go. This is great tobacco, couldn't just throw it away. It's delicious!

Excellent blend for sure! Lucky you got there in time!

Haunted Bookshop in a Molina Barasso Straight Pot. Watching Rocky V with my wife, because she actually wanted to watch Rocky V. (She hasn't seen this one.)

Enjoyed a tasty navel orange, and am half way through this bowl of Watch City Mr.B’s in a straight smooth dark brown 1933-40 Medico Frank patent 1967585 bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Working and listening to Burns and Allen.

Tuesday evening settling in smoke after a ribeye, mini sweet corn cob, a roll, and some real oj with pulp. Two new to me estates. I'm doing Blend #1 in both. Keeping my fingers crossed that I found some smokers because they're clean and in good shape...regulation in my books. So the one on the left is a Mattox Pipe Shop Eugene Oregon rig. The one on the right is a nice lovat Chancellor. Blend #1 oughtta make for a good test. Switching to Sprite and the stereo.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, giant bowl of chili and two jumbo slices of freshly made apple cinnamon raisin pie for dessert. I'll be working off these calories for several day, I'm sure. I'm half way through this bowl of year 1983 Condor Long Cut in a smooth straight 1870s Au Pacha meerschaum canted cutty with a sterling silver band and amber orific stem. It's my first smoke in this new-to-me pipe, which is now the oldest one I own. The pipe is a little darker than you see in this photo. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

This would have been the perfect post for you to write “glorious condor in a meer”. Congrats on the new pipes, this one and the old Pete apple

CAO Meerschaum Calabash. A true treasure, kept clean and very refreshed. Today, it was Brown Flake Scented.

 

[JimInks]

Half way through this bowl of Wilke No. 24 in a smooth straight brown 1949 Yello-Bole Century Model Lovat with a nickel band accent on the black vulcanite saddle stem.

I'd have written that if I had thought of it.

Thanks for the congrats.

Now smoking Wilke Hearth of Galway in an undated smooth straight medium brown made in France Saillard Lord Clerit lumberman with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Listening to The Jack Benny Program as I work.

Yes, it sure is. I only have one clay that isn't a Markus Fohr. He makes good ones.

@Carol I've had a few Markus Fohr clay pipes and really like them. I've never had any black ones. I'll be taking my church warden when I go to the Redcoats and Revolutionaries event at Cromford Mill in May. I enjoyed getting my clay pipe lit from the forge last year and lit it with a candle ?️ from the fire at Murton Park last weekend.
