Did a set of walking reps and smoked a bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in a slight bent black pattern etched 1977 Lorenzo Lorsan Sigma level top billiard with a gray swirl acrylic saddle stem. Tomato the Brave walked part of a lap with me and kept wanting attention. Daisy the Feral Princess wanted attention, too, but she stayed on the deck. Harry the Hairy went somewhere after eating.

I noticed you smoke those Toscanos now and then. I've seen them at my Cigar store, I might have to try one sometime.
Enjoying the other half of that Toscano Garibaldi now while on lunch break.

@MortarMessiah, My favorites are Antico and Vecchio. Cut them in half and get two 30-45min smokes. Most cigar shops have the flavored Toscanellos, they are nice but you pay the same price for 5 halves as you do 5 wholes in the regular Toscano line. DM me if you wanna chat more on them 😀

A beautiful afternoon for Peretti Ebony 🖤 in a Vermont Freehand Cherrywood Morta. Very nice, indeed. It's really warm here today, nearly 15 deg above normal. It's 82 degrees today!

Gold Star ⭐Papua New Guinea coffee with cream. :coffee:

🎾 Enjoyed the championship match of the WTA Finals out of Riyadh this morning. Great match. 🎾

I think you will like them. They have a bit of a different taste to conventional cigars and are of course, smaller. You will get that feeling of wanting to wear a wide brim hat and squint, like Clint Eastwood in "The Good, the Bad & the Ugly."
I agree with everything but the wide brim hat and squint thing 🤣 For me, they fill the desire for a bowl of HH Dark Fired Kentucky with some coffee and have the simplicity of light and go.

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am smoking 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 Jamaican Estate Reserve, neat, is my drink. Going to post the four C&D Wintertime reviews soon. And then, I'll clean a few pipes if Sleepy Suzy lets me. She's taken up all the extra space on my chair and purring up a storm. Earlier, Tomato the Brave wanted back in to eat some more so I put Norton the Nosey in the bathroom. He hates that. After Tomato ate, he laid down near my feet and might have stayed in, but it was unfair to Norton to keep him locked up and unhappy. I let him out and after a minute or two, Tomato decided to go out.

I don't want a flavored cigar even a little bit, but if they got a good natural cigar I might like that.

Jim, as I follow the evolution of the coexistence of the cats, it sure sounds like there is a bit of "peace in the valley" coming about. In this post you have four cats, one being the new fella, Norton the Nosey, in the same room at the same time. I would have to say that is progress. Do you agree?
Not yet. Cats generally dislike new to the fold cats. More often than not, it works out in the long run, but that's not something that you can count on. Daisy the Feral Princess and Tomato the Brave have been round here for six years, and Molly Danger still hates them. Sleepy Suzy warmed up to indifference. Neither have anything to do with them and vice versa. All the cats dislike Harry the Hairy and he's been around for about a year and a half. None of them ever liked Abner the Eager.

Currently there are six cats around. As much as we adore Norton the Nosey, we are trying to find a home for him. it would be in his and our best interests. If we fail to find him a home, we'll have to keep him even though there's plenty of stress to go with plenty of joy that he brings us. He's a happy, playful, loving, sweet li'l fella and deserves a home without the drama.
