***What Are You Smoking, July 2020?***

My dinner was a salad, two big French cut pork chops and mashed potatoes. As this is a "diet free" weekend, thanks in part to the scheming fella who sent us a Collin Street Bakery pecan pie and a fruit cake - first fruit cake I've ever liked. I usually hate them - I had two slices of pie with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream, and one slice of fruit cake. M'lady added to the drama by a slice of Chocolate Decadence Napoleon, which I ate almost half of. I'm almost half way through this bowl of year 2012 Rolando’s Own in a smooth straight early ‘60s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. Watching episode two of "Grant" with Sleepy Suzy on my lap. Molly is snoozin' on m'lady's lap.

Collin Street Bakery is a stop I make any time I’m headed that far west on I-20. They have lots of fantastic pastries and such in the bakery, too. And yes, they make a damn good fruitcake.

McClelland Red Cake in a Ben Wade 'Walnut' with a little leftover Rich Dark Flake from last night at the bottom of the bowl.

 

[Country Bladesmith]

C&D Gentleman Caller in my deer tongue cob, a bent Legend. After this one I guess I’ll go get cleaned up for church. I’m content to just read my Bible on the porch swing and not have to wear a mask ?
Wife wants to go though. Happy wife, happy life I guess. ?‍

Planta 2012 Marula fruit aromatic, in a Ropp red stain smooth straight apple with silver-color band and deep red stem; this is one of my favorite aromatic blends, an acquired taste I've learned to enjoy. Marula fruit ferments and elephants are seen to get intoxicated on it.
