CS Cowboy Coffee in the IMP. An IPA, seemingly made for this pipe, on the side.

Gawith Hoggarth’s Dark Birds Eye in an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard
Thanks Scott! I feel like I lucked out on scoring that one.
Friday Night Enjoyment:
In a Peterson System Standard 309 Donegal Rocky Fish Tail - enjoying some Mac Baren Mixture Scottish Blend that I misted with some Johnnie Walker Red Label about 3 months ago. Periodically, I'd open the tin, stir it up a bit, then cover it again. I used an older McClelland tin with the plastic lid. This experiment turned out good.
I'm planning on another try with rum ... using some Virginia with a touch of Perique & Latakia. Assuming this also turns out good, I'm thinking of another future experiment with some good Canadian Whisky.

Off to work with a bowl of Wilke Little Round Top in an undated straight smooth brown pre-Republic Peterson’s Sterling bulldog 150 with a sterling silver band and a black vulcanite saddle p-lip stem. Listening to the Dodgers-Rays game.
Forgot to mention = my (above) Friday Night Enjoyment is being accompanied with a bottle of Mickey's Malt Liquor. Somebody earlier on this thread posted a pic of a bottle of Mickey's and me being easily influenced by the Power of Suggestion thought "Hmm, I haven't had Mickey's for a long time" --- hence, an immediate purchase of a 6-pack with subsequent visceral enjoyment. Anybody doubting my capability to be influenced by a pic should see my reaction to a pic of a bowl of chili ... which, by the way, there's a pan that's been simmering on the stove last two hours.
This is a pipe I made several years ago.
I had gotten some small blocks of Algerian plateau to practice with. Once this one was done I stuck it a desk drawer and forgot about it.
So today when I came across it I figured I’d fire it up. Sort of a small Dublin. And it smokes great.

Today, Sutliffe 507-C in the Vauen Olaf bent egg, then Pete Pub pipe, then Barontini 1/2 spigot bent billiard.
Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of year 2020 C&D Virginia Gentleman in a straight smooth dark brown pre-1940s Comoy’s Jost’s Olde English Supreme J299 Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Nearly done with some K&K Caribbean Blue Graham in a Northern Briars large lovat. Soon, I'm gonna be working on tunes for a fill in bass gig tomorrow night.
Love it (!!!). Appreciate these pics that explain your earlier comments.
But with Gracie being "the Lady in the yard", and thinking what's involved for me when trying to pick out just the right kind of Valentine's Day candy for the Lady Friend, I'm wondering if this Dark Sails mixture was destined for her Thumb's Down? NOTE: Good thing it wasn't a Balkan! Not that I'm trying to tell you anything about girls.
Maybe her reaction would be different with something sweeter, such as:
