Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am off to work with a bowl of D&R Raccoon’s Friend in a pre-1980s straight dark brown Comoy's Sandblast 186 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Going to listen to Jack Armstrong, The All American Boy from my radio collection.

Haunted bookshop in a clay.
I bought 2oz H.B. Maybe I am a fans of English, Balkans and V/P, still can't like this "bold burley" after drinking a few bowls. Sometimes it has the taste of cheap cigars, which is not bad, but it is just a simple and rough tobacco, lacking a sense of hierarchy, like wine bibber's strong wine.
I won't buy it again. However, it will not be wasted. I will save it for my mother-in-law's visit. Maybe this "bold burley" can effectively drive her away.

mix it 50/50 with Boswell's Northwoods or similar Frog Morton-esque blend.... Haunted Woods. It works (for me!). puffy

Had a light snack, and am smoking Wilke No. 72 in a pre-1974 dark brown straight Larus & Brother Co. Signature billiard with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem with the initials LCR on the top of the stem. This blend was smoked by Walter Cronkite. Fed Daisy the Feral Princess and Tomato the Brave. Haven't seen much of the striped cats the last few days, although I think they've when I was doing something else. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Close to finishing this bowl of AceFour’s VaBur in the third pipe I ever bought ($1.95), a 1974 smooth straight French briar Hadley NEBPC apple with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Have enough for one more bowl. This'll do it for me today.

@Scottmi Good advice! By mixing some Latakia and Oriental to improve the taste of burley, I really think it will suit my taste. But with Morton Frog? Is it a waste? I can't bear to open my last 100g can, unless someone makes McClelland return to the market. However, it is very feasible to use C&D's own products to develop a "haunted pirate". still have 2 pounds of Pirate Kake. This will be the plan for tomorrow.
Today, I unexpectedly found that this little keywoodie 08a is very suitable for C&D Bayou Night. I should buy another 4oz for this pipe.WechatIMG228.jpeg
