A bowl of Robert McConnell Scottish Cake in my Lorenzetti Senator shape P150.
A couple of minutes away from smoking Ken Byron Aged FVF in a 2014 Savinelli Gaius smooth brown slight bend 320KS author with a tapered black acrylic military mount stem and ferrule. Working and listening to You Bet Your Life.
Listing this early so I can concentrate on work for a bit: Jim's Va/Bur in a 2015 Basil Meadows Bing Crosby Merchant Service replica with a smooth straight thin shank, aluminum band and black ebonite stem.

I was outside earlier, in a 60 degree Chicago Spring evening, enjoying a bowl of HU Brullende Leeuw, in a MM Country Gentleman.
Listing this one early, too: GLP Montgomery in a very ugly reddish color 1980 medium bend Lorenzo Leganza Sigma 8635 etched rough top and black vulcanite saddle stem. Taking a very short work break to brew some Community Coffee.
I had left the butt of the Montechristo 75th Anniversary cigar on the table of the patio the other day. The metal grating exposed it to the air to dry. It had drizzled overnight and washed away some of the tars that accumulated.
It sat in the sun the other day for several hours drying. It was such a tasty cigar, I wondered...
I took a sharp knife and cut it into fine strips. The inside was still a little damp, so I let it sit to dry a little more.
I had 3 grams of tobacco, so I blended it with 3 grams of unflavored Black Cavendish, and 6 grams of Bright and Red Virginias, some Stoved and some just aged. Gave a little shred to make it uniform.
Was wondering if it was gonna taste like a wet dog... it’s actually pretty darn good. Cigar notes, deep tobacco, a fired note, sweetness from the Virginias. Loaded into an old Yello Bole Large bent Billiard.

A bowl of Mac Baren Plumcake in my Brigham Chinook Bulldog. This is rapidly becoming a favourite.
Enjoying a bit of Heinrich’s Curly Block in this Stanwell Omega.️

Now smoking Ken Byron Ventures’ Watch City Ventures Crumb Fu in a 2019 straight smooth brown Merchant Service “Bing” with a nickel band and black vulcanite tapered stem.
Been away from my Meers for a couple months (I seem to smoke them more in Summer. Don't know why really) so I decided to have some Mac Baren Mixture Scottish Blend in my Ali Lions Head Meer. She's starting to color. Came to me white as snow. Been working on getting the color for about 2 years now. Need to keep working that.
Solani Silver Flake 660 in Peterson Christmas 2018
Dang, that is a nice shape. What shape does Peterson call that? I have the same year Christmas pipe, but a straight apple shape. Yours has a very nice blast and color.
Tanks, is an "bent apple" sandblasted
your Ali Lions Head Meer is gorgeous
Just finished smoking Ken Byron Ventures Sakura in a 1986 three quarter bend Bacchus face CAO meer with a dark tortoise shell colored tapered acrylic stem.
Final bowl of my day is a C&D Pegasus in a largish no name basket Meer with a replacement acrylic saddle bit and medium rich ️ whilst checking in on the day’s developments so far.
