***What Are You Smoking, January 2025?***

[TN Jed]

And thank you all for the birthday wishes. It was a quiet one, just me and the dogs right now. My wife is taking my oldest back to Ft Leonardwood currently, with our younger son. He wasn't supposed to have to report back until Saturday, but because of the weather, they CO called and moved the date up to today. I had to work, so the dogs and I spent last night having a few bowls while I poured over seed catalogs for this spring's garden. Exciting, I know!

Happy Belated Birthday!

Smoking and reviewing C&D Firebird Flake (Small Batch) in a 1960s Austrian meerschaum bent apple with a tapered yellow stem. Daisy the Feral Princess is by my feet. Sleepy Suzy is by my side.

What is that thing? Looks like a power drill with a chainsaw attachment.

Battery powered mini chainsaw. $12 Temu special and works really well.

Smoking a tasty bowl of C&D Opening Night from 2020 in this Savinelli Gianduia ...I will always buy the big can of this stuff, such a great blend. Taking the Mrs. out for a drink at a local brewery, then I think I will probably succumb to some panicked-out tobacco purchasing lol -- cheers folks!
