Enjoyed a tasty Jazz apple, and am almost half way through this bowl of D&R VIP in a 2004 smooth long shank Trever Talbot Ligne Bretagne Faite en Bretagne 4/3 lumberman with a black vulcanite tapered stem. Working and listening to the ball game.

Probably poured a little heavy on the Macallan 12. But it’s Friday. Why not? Plan this weekend is try some balkan/oriental stuff I have. First is some Wilke 515 in a Ser Jacopo. Great smoking pipe. Making this blend sing. I don’t think I’m a liquor topping guy but this is making me reconsider
GH Dark Flake in an 1894 H. P. Bulldog with Amber Stem
A break with a bowl of Chendol/cendol
Those from SE Asia (Malaysia/Singapore especially) or those who have travelled through those countries will be familiar with this favourite regional dessert. Green noodles made from mung bean flour and pandan leaf extract (a fragrant screw pine or pandanus - the "Asian vanilla") in coconut cream and palm sugar (gula Melaka) syrup. ?
Next bowl - Sillems Green
In another Anne Julie designed Stanwell Shape 35B. This one an unsmoked sandblasted Danish Sovereign Shape 935 (bottom pipe of this trio)

About a third of a bowl left of Prince Albert in a straight smooth walnut 1927 KBB Kaywoodie Drinkless 86 dublin with a tapered black vulcanite stem. This model was only made in 1927.
Vincent Manil Reserve du Patron in a dragon claw meer
Late night bowl of Sutliff Virginia Slices and some Star Wars action, just kicking back.
Pegasus morning and evening. One smoke of Old Gowrie in between.
Capstan Blue Flake in a MM/C&D Carolina Gent. I think I may end the day with this smoke.
Just finished smoking Wilke No. 24 in a smooth straight brown 1949 Yello-Bole Century Model Lovat with a nickel band accent on the black vulcanite saddle stem.
Now smoking Wilke Golden Sceptre in a late 40s, early 50s straight black sandblasted Wagner British Thorn 495 (Comoy’s second) pot with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Enjoying some Escudo in a pre-Rep Pete X105 this morning as I water the yard. Supposed to hit 109F today, but the breeze is blowing this morning and it’s quite pleasant.
Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am almost half way through this bowl of D&R Raccoon’s Accent in a pre-WWII straight smooth brown The Lumberman Special (Comoy’s) with a tapered black vulcanite saddle stem.
Warped Scarecrow in a Peterson rusticated mini-calabash.
Just finishing this bowl of Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a 2015 Basil Meadows Bing Crosby Merchant Service replica with a smooth straight thin shank, aluminum band and black ebonite stem. I did finish the first page of a Betty and Veronica story. Fed Suzy, Molly, Daisy The Feral Princess, and Shy Stripesy, who has returned this week after not seeing him for a long time. Now, I wonder what happened to his big brother, who I haven't seen in almost two weeks. I know he has another place to go so I expect him back sometime.
Last smoke of the day is Wilke No. 515 in a smooth dark medium bend 2021 Peterson Heritage Brown POTY 4AB No. 45/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. This was the blend Basil Rathbone smoked. Reading baseball box scores.
Peretti No. 8 Flake in a Savinelli Menta shape 614KS
Just got off work and I’m relaxing with a nice bowl of GH Scotch Flake in a Clark Layton Dublin with a rum and coke on the side. I whipped up a few new tampers last night at work. Two out of Osage Orange, one out of Leopard Wood and a few hammer forged nails.
