Had a wonderful pork chops and black-eyed peas dinner with a big slice of ml'lady's freshly baked chocolate meringue pie for dessert. Just finished smoking Peretti No. 8 Slice in a 1979 brown grain etched Lane Era Charatan's Make medium bend calabash shape 483DC with a black vulcanite double comfort stem. Got a short nap in, too.
Eating another slice of pie, and then will smoke Stokkebye Natural Dutch Cavendish in a 1970s medium bend smooth Ben Wade Golden Walnut freehand with a black vulcanite stem.
Celebrated Sovereign from 2003 in a Savinelli 602 sandblast. This was a favorite tobacco from back in the day, and I kept this tin intact for 15 years. Popped it open this year on the wife's birthday, a special day as any.
Now smoking the last of this sample of year 2000 Escudo in a 2002 black pebble finish straight Cavicchi C. Fatto A Mano Billiard and a black acrylic tapered stem. This pipe seldom gets smoked by me, and this will be a long smoke. Phone chatting with a good friend.
Had a light snack and am now smoking GLP Montgomery in a 2002 straight grain Karl Erik Ekstravagant A medium bend freehand sitter with a small horn ferrule accent and black acrylic saddle stem.
Last smoke of the day is Angler's Dream in a slight bend 1984 Stanwell Antique 124 grain etched with a smooth front with a black vulcanite stem. Watching The Conspirator, which is a movie about Mary Surratt.
