***What Are You Smoking, November 2022?***

Now I got it, as I looked Maotai up, it’s a high percentage Schnaps. I had it once after a chinese dinner. Only a few amount goes a long way.

Also the chinese family that celebrated someone’s birthday next to us, halving dim sum, some soup, fish and chicken feet got the Schnaps. They were well on the way, shouting and laughing. They drank a little more. Nothing wrong with the strong Schnaps.

53%ABV, I can drink 450ml before I lose consciousness

Good day all! Starting this frigid Florida morning (50 degrees) with Peterson Elizabethan Mixture in an Upshall P Dublin with smooth rim and pencil shank with tapered stem.

Almost half a litre, that’s a lot. I hope you don’t try that to often. It likely will blow your brain off.

What a machine, are you a professional caterer. I use that one once in a year, or so. Not that much into Crêpe anyways.

The real reason i purchased it is because my daughter turns 7 next month and wants a Paris themed party.

But yeah, I have previously worked in hospitality, and whenever we see a second hand commercial grade appliance in good condition come up cheap we jump on it. I have a sandwich press/grill which is the centre piece of an annual pipe meet here. I guess now we can do a dessert version

You are absolutely right! I can but I won't, not an alcoholic.
After finished a cohiba short, it's time to go to bed with Schubert's gute nacht by Joyce DiDonato.

Friday evening here... The workday was not so hard, weekend is coming, so I have time and mood for a longer smoke, therefore I loaded one of my 2 largest pipes, a Schrauf's which I bought from their store in Nuremberg, Bavaria. They also make house blends. In it I have SG Westmorland Mixture, an especially tasty tobacco, in my opinion. A very nice end of the week for all of you, good people.

Ah yea I understand, in the Bretagne they do it as dinner, with bacon cheese and whatever comes along.

But my favourite is Crêpe Suzette. It takes some time. Delicious with slices of fresh oranges and some orange zests fried in a prepared pan of candid sugar, butter, and a certain amount of orange liquor like Grand Marnier. Let the Crêpes soak into it.

Maybe I fetch my crepe pan on sunday.

HU Balkan Passion in this S.Bang - finished after I got to work this morning, so I get to stash the pipe in my old 8-9-8 cigar box in my desk drawer.

Almost half way through this bowl of year 2014 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. Watching Mad Dog Russo.

A bowl of good old Derringer in a Blakemar Briars Litchbruyere smooth antique stain bullcap. It might be time to order another bullcap from Mike as he has moved his operation from his shop to his home place.
This time maybe a brown blast that compliments a tortoise lucite stem?
Hot Belfast tea with a splash of milk to wet my whistle.

late morning smoke, Edward G Robinson blend in a Wilke smooth Canadian, perfect with a dark roast and half & half cream. No activity scheduled today so a walk a pipe and a book. Life is good, going to order some Santa’s chocolate covered cherry crème from Wilke for the holidays.

Did a set of walking reps, had a fun chat with the neighbors, and smoked a bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem.

Swam some laps, cool out but pool is heated to 88. Now enjoying a simple bowl of PA in a cob, just looking at the woods out back,trees turning colors,dropping leaves, we do have seasons here.

 

[JimInks]

Not far from finishing this bowl of first release 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. Lunch and coffee follow this smoke.
