@KORNEY man I love this pipe. Another Miscoi masterpiece!
Getting ready to fire up some 5 year old GLP Union Station in this Alexander Pipes bent egg sandblast. y
Enjoyed three egg, ham and cheese open face sandwiches (two eggs on each one), a Jethro Bodine size bowl of Raisin Bran with extra raisins thrown in, and a red delicious apple lunch. I've passed the half way mark of this bowl of year 2000 VaPer Three Nuns in a 1938 straight black grain relief Dunhill OX Shell bulldog with a silver band repair with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Watching the Reds-Marlins game until the Braves-Padres game starts after the top of the hour. Lavazza Classico, neat, is my drink.
Abner the Eager was waiting for me when I finished walking earlier, so I let him in to eat, and since Molly Danger is snoozin' in the bedroom, I let Abner snooze in the small comfort bed that the scampers used to be in. He doesn't mind being out of the heat.

After popping the tins a couple days ago, I've only been smoking Capstan Gold and Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake. The Capstan is... fine, but the VRC is wonderful! Amazingly rich tin note (my wife and I could swear we smell honey, but I don't see other tobacco reviewers mentioning it), the aroma much bolder than I expect for an aromatic, and much of that comes through in the taste. It's not even a fair fight. Today's bowl is some VRC in my MM Morgan, three coins folded and stuffed with some shake as tinder on top. I have a feeling my mouth would be getting fairly singed if I had rubbed it out, with today's wind.
Anyways, hat tip to @SBC for helping to nudge me toward trying this stuff.

A third of the way through this bowl of year 2014 E-soterica And So To Bed in a straight post-1981 GBD Prehistoric 133 billiard with brass accents, the letter K stamped on the shank with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Have enough for most of a bowl. Watching the Braves-Padres game.
Finishing up the days adventures with some JC’s Double Pressed Kentucky in a clay. 
Sutliff Match Victorian from January 2020 in an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard
C&D Old Joe Krantz Red Label in a Peterson Sherlock Holmes Hansom bent bulldog.
Just finished smoking year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
A quarter of the way through this bowl of Seattle Pipe Club Hogshead Bourbon Barrel Aged in a 1960s Austrian meerschaum bent apple with a tapered yellow stem. Working on a review of it as I watch the ballgame. It goes on sale July 23 at 6 p.m. EST.
