Almost half way through this bowl of Uhle’s 00 in a straight smooth brown post-WW2 LHS Purex Superfine 74 Canadian with a metal screw-in tenon and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

PS Luxury Twist Flake in an Edward’s Algerian Briar#709 Pot.
Just finished smoking Wilke No. 111 in a straight smooth medium brown 2016 Brigham Klondike 16 bulldog with a tapered black acrylic stem.
Now smoking Wilke High Hat in an undated black sandblasted straight made in France Silvermatch Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
I’m intrigued by the framed photo in the background. Back story? Is that signed by John Ritter?
Starting off the day with a bowlfull of G&H Co Best Brown 2 in a Falcioni with a meer bowl
Now Smoking: 50% Hearth & Home's Louisiana Red ribbon-cut, boosted with 50% Sutliff TS-20 Perique granulated, in my dedicated Yello-Bole Standard 8-Panel Brylon Tester/Beater-Pipe.
I claim absolutely zero inventiveness on this Oh-So-Satisfying experiment, as all I did was amp-up the already included Perique level to better match my personal interpretation of the catalog description of this well-loved Russ Ouellette dual Red Virginia VaPer, and that of my notoriously Nicotine and Perique-hungry palate.
My test results are best summed-up with this question of you, my dear Brothers-of-the-Briar:
Have you ever found yourself smoking a bowl in the utter stillness and quiet of 4am, when no one else is home or they are fast asleep; and, you are exclusively in deep, deep commune with your pipe... You, your pipe, the gently glowing fireplace, and the magnificent blend you are smoking is all that exists; and, for the moment, the world could not seem to be more perfect - feeling that you have effortlessly caught the elusive tabak muse as you sip you pipe?
I can only hope this feeling lasts through the up-coming re-load. - Sherm Natman

Hello fellow pipesmokers.
It's a cold and rainy day here in Denmark, so I will stay inside with some hot black coffee
I'm smoking My Own Blend nr. 111 in my Altinay rusticated billard silver spigot - a lovely blend in one of my favorite pipes.

Fed Daisy the Feral Princess and Tomato the Brave, and I snacked on a few unsalted peanuts. I'm passing the half way mark on this bowl of year 2016 Peter Stokkebye Luxury Navy Flake in a straight smooth brown post-1964 Parker Super Bruyere 88/F group 3 bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. I may end the day with this smoke.
Yeah smoke rings or squares, triangles. Is anyone out there gotten diving deeper in the science of blowing smoke rings?MM Emerald Country Gentleman stuffed with Country Squire Old Toby.
A very pleasant smoke! I bought the CS Middle Earth sampler back in 2020 but havn't gotten around to smoking them. I decided to try them all over the next couple of weeks and thought it most fitting to start with Old Toby.
I only wish I was good at blowing smoke rings!
Smoked some SWR and a bunch of my home blend. The SRW Original I had stuffed pouch and all in a jar a couple of years ago. Trying it for the first time, I like it a lot! Pretty mild though but maybe I'm branching out this year.
What do you think of this weird looking Musicò I decided to buy today? I've never quite seen a pipe with such a disjointed looking bowl. I love it!

Starting the day with some MacBaren HH Burley Flake in a Sunrise Dublin.
Amphora Original in a Mark Twain.
Ascsnian#2 in Comoy Grand Slam patent small biliard
Hello again.
Continuing with My Own Blend no. 111. This time in an Altinay translucent meershaum billard with bamboo.
This is my last tin of this wonderful tobacco - damn now I have to pay a visit to the Danish Pipe Shop again
