This is Arrowhead in the Sav billiard, Cafe Bustelo, in whole milk with a scoop of vanilla latte…sunshine now at midday, but cold. Best to all…
Finally, after 4 months of abstaining from pipe smoking while my dental implant osseointegrated, I'm about to return to pipe smoking, in moderation to start (meaning 1-2 bowls/week to begin with). I expected some sort of withdrawl or cravings, but I haven't had anything except missing the relaxing time I spent with nature, or a book, or with you all, and a pipe.
In any case, this is my last "prohibition" post, and I look forward to joining you again with discussions of what I'm currently smoking!

Some Rattray’s Old G in the Altinay Dragon while watching some Detective D after completing zero walking reps.
I also have an older unopened tin of this blend...still apprehensive about the blend and cut...LOLJust opened a tin of 2018 Orlik Golden Sliced, about to smoke some in a Peterson Rosslare - photo from the moment I opened the tin:

Cheers folks!!
I like the looks of that Vauen, in particular...
PS Luxury Navy Flake in my GPSS first year group pipe.
Just finished smoking year 2014 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style.
G&H Bob’s Chocolate Flake in a Unfinished Savinelli 673
Did a set of walking reps, and smoked two bowls of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Spent a long time chatting with my next door neighbor about finding a real home for Daisy the Feral Princess and Tomato the Brave.
Vauen No 14 in an Altinok. Bowl 21.
Bowl 4 in this today now some Sir John’s flake
Elizabethan Match in an Hansen long stem- so old that the name stamp is only a ghost.

Golden slice in a Ser Jacabo Maxima Maxima 
Thanks! I received it in this years Secret Santa exchange. It’s a great pipe.
Started the day with Haunted Bookshop in a Tekin.
Followed by Brown Clunee in a George Boyadjiev.
Later it was 2017 Cumberland in an Altinay.
And I’m ending the day with Bayou Morning in a Sasieni.
