Getting ready to watch the broadcast of UFC on ESPN: Derrick Lewis vs. Tallison Teixeira, taking place at the Bridgestone Arena, in Nashville, Tennessee. Having Seattle Pipe Club Plum Pudding in a Briar, Sweat, and Tears (BST) Large Curve (LC) Swan Neck 3/4 Bent Billiard.

My little 1:12 scale room isn’t quite done. I’m waiting for several items from Spain, that were already supposed to be here, but got delayed in transit/customs; they will supposedly be here early next week, but I was anxious to share my little project sooner than later. This started out as a nod to @AreBee with his Syroco thrift store find, and @PaulRVA ’s little Oriental rug, often featured in his pipe photos. I posted a photo with a Syroco chair pipe rest and a less than ideal Oriental rug without real fringe a month or two ago. @Choatecav was following with interest. Not wanting to do things half-assed, I dove down the rabbit hole and decided to take things to the logical extreme and make this fun with all sorts of details (that are mutable). I got a little rug with fringe and decided I needed a room to put the chair and rug in; a smoking chair needed an end table next to it; a table needed a lamp; walls needed wallpaper, outlets and light switches, and so on. @Briarcutter was absolutely right—this could go on forever adding different items; I followed his prompt of mentioning pets, and decided my room needed to include a 1:12 scale version of our Chihuahua, Wasabi. The picture frame on the end table has pics of @JimInks and @sablebrush52 for now; other members might make appearances in these spots in the future.

Hard to get pics with the horrendous reflections. Maybe one day I’ll be able to remove the glass and get better pics..

As you can see, tons of detail. Almost too much to take in with these poor, strained photos.

Passing the first third of this bowl of year 2024 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. Fed all the cats except for the absent Abner the Eager. Watching the Yankees-Phillies game. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
