@Carol Nice one! Did you have any problems lighting it like on that windy day when I went to see the Sealed Knot? Dad says I spent all day trying to light my pipe

Thanks, yes and thankfully those little 4" clay Cutty pipes are even less expensive than a cob, so I bought a handful of them just for tasting/sampling/sipping individual tabaks with.@shermnatman Nice pipe - be careful not to break it
I have to say, I love the pureness of the smoke which the clay offers and really is perfect to deeply evaluate and consider all aspects of a tabak, free of any influences of a beloved Briar smoker from the rotation. - Sherm Natman
@shermnatman I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of times I've smoked a pipe not made of clay
, but I've lost count of how many clays I've broken...
Good morning, guys. Smoking the first third of black parrot now, in a Charles Cobbler MM, and a shot of bourbon before lunch. This morning my sister-in-law left. I gave her a bottle of bourbon, told her to have a few drinks just before doing yoga exercises. It was a frenetic week at home, this woman is pure nerve. Last night we had pizzas for dinner, I ate so many slices, I was about to burst. So we couldn't have a few shots of whiskey in the living room that night as a farewell. My angry sister-in-law called me a hungry weasel with no brakes. So we didn't take pictures to show here. Maybe another time. I wish you a happy Sunday. May God protect and bless you always.
Well, it really was, you stinking, stinking, hungry weasel. Yeah, that's what she said to me. Just sent a WhatsApp my sister-in-law, to remind me of the insult. I would have liked to kick his sweet ass, like a fresh cauliflower. We're still smoking this delicious black parrot. It really is lovely. But I don't think I would ever marry her. I mean my sister-in-law, not black parrot.

Enjoying a nice bowl of F&T Cut Blended Plug (compliments of @hoosierpipeguy) in my ‘67 Dunhill Duke.
What a wonderful blend. Thanks, Mark.
What a wonderful blend. Thanks, Mark.
Smoking some Old Gowrie in an E.A. Carey billiard.
Large bowl of Davidoff Flake medallions in a Ser Jacabo Maxima bent egg. I recently traded away all my Jacabos except for this great smoker. Still love the brand, just had some bad luck with a couple of estates.
Not-so-early morning pipe in my Danish chimney (Christmas gift from my son).
Good afternoon. After lunch, a Galician stew, with red wine also from Galicia, from the small winery of my father-in-law, in the old days you had vineyards. A modest home production. Everything went to hell, with the death of his son, a good military academy. Now just a small winery. Smoking now a bowl of Capstan Blue, in a MM Charles Cobbler, wonderful tobacco for after lunch, we accompany it with a good rye whiskey of high graduation.
Old Joe Krantz Blue inna cob while a gobbler mocks me from the pasture
More Kendal #7 shag in the Grabow bulldog with coffee. Beautiful day expected again, so I'm headed out to fish, again. BIG10 wrestling finals later this afternoon so a shorter trip. Enjoy your Sunday everyone! Go Penn State!
Sir John's Flake Virginia in an Altinok. Bowl 62.
I’m curious about the stummel sans stem in the foreground. What is it? Are you cleaning it? Working on making a new stem? Is it a paperweight?
Mac Baren Vanilla Flake in one of my homemades.
First smoke in my new Castello Sea Rock. My own blend. 
Good Sunday morning all. Up way too early again for the footie. Starting with WCC 558 in an unfinished Savinelli 644.
