Enjoyed a tall stack of cinnamon raisin French toast with unsalted peanuts and a golden delicious apple for lunch. I'm half way through this bowl of year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. The last of this bag of Gold Star 50th, neat, is my drink. All the ferals have eaten.

About to fire up a bowl of Sutliff Count Pulaski in a Brebbia 8311 - my favorite pipe. Local beer on the side. Also pictured is Arlo standing guard in his corner and Opal in her usual stick-eating spot.

A sad day as I poked a hole in the bottom of my cob while cleaning it with a poker… RIP.

Anyway, Merry Christmas and happy holidays, everyone!

First time trying a sample of 10 year old LJ Peretti Yuletide...well, I imagine I'll be trying this at some point today. Been drying it for an hour plus, and it's still just as moist. If I can get it in before the rain, I'll consider this day a success. Looks like it'll be a white Christmas tonight! 😍 🎄

This bowl will go in a Savinelli Mattone 614 faux-Hungarian, and is dedicated to my paternal grandmother, who would be 106 today.

Happy belated Festivus everyone! I got a lot o' PROBLEMS with you people!!!

Passing the first third of this bowl of Seattle Pipe Club Give Me Liberty in a straight smooth medium brown pre-1920 straight Marechal Ruchon & Cie. Royale apple with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem. This will finish the tin.

The son of a neighbor owns an Alaskan Huskey. He got loose and almost got Harry the Hairy. M'lady helped the owner save Harry from the dog. Harry's okay, but he's hiding somewhere. He'll get special attention when we see him. I couldn't help but think of what would have happen had we not found homes for Sam the Scamp or her scampers. Daisy the Feral Princess and Abner the Eager have been inside. Dunno where Tomato the Brave is, but I know nothing happened to him.

Close call. Glad he got away safe!
