After finishing with mb: Virginia Flake, which by the way, I have to say that I like this tobacco more and more, it surprises me more and more, I have this sensation of catching a sweet aroma, like honey, baked bread,toasted cereal. Which is incredible. It recently went up in price. And thank God I have a good amount sleeping in my closet. Well, that said. I start smoking with another tobacco. Amphora Full, in a MM General..........A can that has been open for several months, has already breathed quite well and has darkened somewhat. With a smell of chocolate and honey......i mean mac baren virginia flake...........With a cup of black coffee and a small glass of brandy........
Love the hoodie, I’ll wager Newhaven Missouri is a much nicer place than Newhaven East Sussex. Shit, Gary Indiana is a nicer place than my Newhaven so it’s gotta be ?
A rare outing for my Aristocob, originally designed for Flash Gordon I think. I’m in the mood for something strong so it’s Bayou Night and some Goslings Black Bermuda Rum while I watch The Simpsons. 
Lunch break in the heated garage in a few! Approximately century old Comoy's Lions Head in amazing condition with some Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake!
Did a set of walking reps, and am close to finishing this bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite stem.
After lunch smoke- C&D We Three Kings in a year 2009 Boswell full bend, Brandy with hand carved accents on the bowl. Vulcanite stem. A nice cup of strong, Kenyan Black tea on this frigid Idaho day.
Glengoyne 21year old with some Presbyterian in a POY 2022 Terracotta finish
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am half way through this bowl of Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation Evening Flake in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson Ebony POTY 4AB No. 422/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Gold Star Jamaican Blue Mountain, neat, is my drink.
Mac Baren HH Balkan Blend in a Savinelli 606KS Bianca.
Professorial!
This evening's smoke is an EE2 "olive cob" pipe, simple as it can get, just an olivewood bowl and a bamboo stem, with Amphora Special Reserve no 8 in it.
I observe that a big percentage of the forum members have facial hair, which gives the opportunity of experiments, variations, styles and other men's fun stuff. I used to have beard or goatee or moustache for decades. Now, nothing. They tell me I look younger. But I feel an emptiness on the face. It's almost sad...
Anyway, pipe is (always) a comfort!

Now smoking year 2016 Orlik Golden Sliced in an early 20th century Gordon Special Bruyere 49 apple with a triangular shank and black vulcanite stem.
Afternoon bowl of Rattray Bagpiper's Dream in a Wilke smooth Billiard with pencil shank and pinch-waist stem size 4 (caution: this blend ghosts).
Franklin's Tower in a Savinelli
Capstan Gold in a Castello great line fluted dublin.
Ran into a difficult programming problem at work, trying to loosen up some synapses with some Capstan blue in a Kaywoodie Birkshire
