I had a very pleasant meeting with my Saturday afternoon ZOOM-mates. I smoked my GBD Militaire 357 prince filled with some rather old and mellow Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend.
With all the recent post about coconut water, I chose to try some Bai coconut water in a tumbler of bergs. Very refreshing.

I love Bai coconut water also!

Got a late start to the day, and am half way through 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. M'lady fed Sleepy Suzy and Molly Danger. I fed three ferals. I'll look for Abner the Eager when I go walking. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Dark Bird’s Eye in a Peterson 80s. Would complain about the hot weather but to me 80f is ten degrees too hot. Don’t know how some of you survive this season.

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.

The love emoji isn't good enough. I especially like the wallpaper and the pipe's pipes. Galaga and Wasabi takes it over the top.

I preferred “Defender”…

Defender was the greatest arcade game ever!

Toscana Toscanello between bowls. IMHO not bad, but I’m not really a cigar guy but would maybe like to be. I have a hard time wrapping my head around 10€ for one Stick. Just really looking for something between bowls to stay away from the Vape.

 

[JimInks]

Did a set of walking reps on this hot and humid day, and smoked a bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in a slight bent black pattern etched 1977 Lorenzo Lorsan Sigma level top billiard with a gray swirl acrylic saddle stem. Didn't see Abner the Eager. Watching the Braves-Cards game as I wait for lunch.

 

[Mortar0341]

HB in my favorite pipe......again. drinking sweet tea. Cabbage pot was delicious. Rain cooled the air down a little, but now it's muggy. I'm gonna try to get another pipe in before the skeeters come out, and probably call it a day.

Some Union Square aged 3-ish years in a Nutten's Bing. I am going to have to get several tins of this to age.

Good day all! Started with KBV Matured Fragrant Virginia in a Nachwalter flame grain Lumberman. Shared a plastic lawn chair at ring side for this afternoon's violent lightening storm with Drucquer's Red Lion in a dedicated Upshall P square-shanked Poker.

C&D Eight State Burley in a Becker Billiard and Diet Coke on the side.Enjoying watching the Cubs spank the Yankees ️ again.

 

[JimInks]

Enjoyed a tall stack of cinnamon raisin French toast with unsalted peanuts and a big golden delicious apple lunch. I'm half way through this bowl of 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. Gold Star Peruvian Macchu Picchu, neat, is my drink. The Braves-Cards game is in a rain delay, so I'm watching the Yankees-Cubs game for now. Getting ready to post my C&D 25th Anni reviews.
