About to light up my Huseyin Cor Hawkbill meer with some Captain Black.

I've had off-and-on problems with tongue (and lip) bite, less lately since I've slowed down the rate of my smoking by a considerable amount. Yeah, finding certain tobaccos now more the problem, and some very short stems, but I think this is more technique than an inherent problem. Your pipe and it's qualities caught my interest. . . . . source? Inquiring minds want to know.
After Post PS . . . . it's a pretty good looking pipe to boot!
G&H #7 Broken Flake in a Kaywoodie Flame Grain Meershaum lined ‘72’ Canadian. With a cool glass of water. 
Currently puffing on my second pipe of D&R Two Timer today, in a Falcon Extra. 
As far as plain and simple honest Burley blends go, I really like Two Timer! It's a little nutty, a little woody and earthy, and a lot mellower and smoother than Pegasus or Haunted Bookshop.
Daughters & Ryan describes Two Timer as just double toasted Burley, though I do think there's a little bit of Virginia in the mix since I occasionally get a little grass or citrus flavor not typical of Burley tobaccos, but it makes for a pleasant enough VaBur blend. I don't know if this is one I'll want to keep and continue smoking over the long term, but I am enjoying it a lot today!

Bill Bailey’s Balkan Blend in a Jorn Larsen No. 7 Dublin.

Another round of Cowboy Coffee in the IMP bent egg.
The background scenic shot looks a little like a golf course under construction. Just sayin'.... perhaps the spectre of Sir Cretinous is haunting my bookshop?
Terrific backup pipe, I might also add.

I like it alot. The bowl size gives a good hour of Haunted Bookshop first thing in the morning. This was one of my first Peterson's that I bought.
OJK in an Irish Seconds System 302.
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and have passed the quarter mark of 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 Peru Penachi Fair Trade Organic, neat, is my drink.
I went to the kitchen for more coffee, and saw a certain intruder at the window wanting out of the sprinkling mist. In the last photo, said intruder tried his hand at stealth without success. I never said Tomato the Brave had a lot of brains, the silly fella. But, he did end up on my lap.

McConnell Scottish Flake in a Rainer Barbi.
Elizabethan Mixture in a new to me 2020 Peterson Sherlock Holmes Baskerville. I haven’t embraced the P-Lip in previous tries but I’m going work with this one more to get used to it.
Little unbranded bullcap I picked up for $12 shipped
Just a city park (technically a retention that fills with stormwater).The background scenic shot looks a little like a golf course under construction. Just sayin'.... perhaps the spectre of Sir Cretinous is haunting my bookshop?

Still rocking the J07, have I mentioned how tasty I think SG Kendal Plug (unsliced BBF) is?
Stumbled on a lone pouch of Salty Dogs at the local B&M and thought I'd pick it up to see what all the fuss is about.
Cube cut some up and dropped the pebbles into a Dunhill 4103. Initial reaction is that I think this might actually be worthy of the hype. Kind of reminds me of a deeper, darker OGS.

Now smoking and reviewing Rivertown Tobacco Works Oak & Ember in a 2003 medium bent Ural meer with a lined and etched egg shaped bowl with a silver band and a pearl brown acrylic saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Yesterday was a pipe of EMP in my Viking billiard and today I’m changing things up with MacBaren Vanilla Crème loose cut in a Savinelli Canadian.
F&T Waterloo No.2 in a Peterson 1910.
Some KB Ven Banana Bread in my Morta Radiator.
