Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am smoking Ken Byron Ventures Mr. Christian’s Royal Pudding in a 2003 medium bent Ural meer with a lined and etched egg shaped bowl with a silver band and a brown pearl acrylic stem. Working on a review of this bend while I watch the ball game. Astros and the White Sox were rained out.
A third of the way through this bowl of year 2014 Astley’s No. 44 in a smooth slight bend dark brown 1940s-1950s Comoy’s Blue Riband 228C prince with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
I’m smoking SG Best Brown in a cob, with ice water to stay hydrated. My daughter is home on fall break from her University. She’s informed me that she’s craving Thai food, so I guess I’m having Pad Thai for supper.
Smoking 2013 Astleys 44 in my new Rubio. If ever there was a pipe that I'd remotely consider keeping for art and not smoking, this would be it. Pictures don't come close to doing this pipe justice, the combined Birdseye and straight grain is unreal.
