***What Are You Smoking, February 2024?***

Currently enjoying some Cornell and Diehl - Old Court in my Savinelli 616KS Onda.

I’ve acquired some more country just recently and it completes the farm from a land acquisition point of view but my fert bill this year will be north of $1.5 million, that doesn’t include spreading cost. Like dad would always say “big acres, big bills”.

Smoking Orlik GS in the same pipe as before now.

Wow. I've noticed a significant increase in fertilizer prices over the past couple of years. I live surrounded by farms and love to watch the land being worked. This year tobacco will be the crop in my area. It was soy beans last year. I myself cropped tobacco as a youngster as did my wife. I learned a lot those summers and those lessons helped mold me into who I am today. Farming is not for the faint of heart and I have nothing but the utmost respect for the people who chose to farm. I don't have a farm but I do garden and grow my own produce. My boys bought some land and have a dozen head of cattle, turkeys and chickens and that came from gardening and raising chickens on this two acre plot.

Low Country Edisto that I home "stoved" last year and opened the jar for thr first time since. Tasty stuff! In a Savinelli Linea Piu 3.

Smoking KBV Patience of Dr Silence in a Savinelli Antica Oom Paul. This tobacco is quickly rising to one of my favorites!

PAD struck when visited a B&M last week.. and finally getting around to it! New IMP lattice meer sitter. I like to open a new blend with a new pipe so dug through the cellar and settled on Robert Lewis Tree Mixture. So far so good!

Second bowl in the new IMP is Peretti No.8 Slice. I love that new meer taste!

 

[cshubhra]

Now smoking Shredded whole leaf wild Rustica in my Magnificent Magnum Moretti Morta.

Earlier I smoked Daughters and Ryan Three Sails in a Balandis sandblasted billiard in the morning and CAO Brazilia cigar in the afternoon.

 

[Speak Easy]

19 degrees out. I really should have thought the size of that bowl through better. I will say the 23 Anthology is keeping me out in it. For the time being.

Hi Carol. I think it is this painter. Ivan Konstantinovich Aivazovsky was a Russian romantic painter. He is considered one of the best marine artists in history. Named Hovhannes Aivazian, Aivazovsky was born into an Armenian family in the Black Sea port of Feodosia in the Crimea, living there most of his life. View attachment 289018

Thank you for the information! Will look him up.

Having finished running around for two weeks as a cardiac scare turned into a cancer scare, turned into "That's a harmless lipoma on my chest that's rubbing on a nerve", I return triumphantly to the pipe!

Meerschaum containing my homegrown from last year, spiced up a little with some DFK.

Glad you're OK,
Welcome back!

Ive always used a spice grinder on my plug slabs, but just started recently grinding some flakes up just to see what would happen. Think I’ll continue doing that, makes for a nice easy buring bowl.
