Attempting to wake up. Some Revor Plug in my Kaywoodie ought to help.

The VA twists from before. They didn't dry all that well so I put them in a tin, heated it up slightly and left it for a few minutes. Still has the same sweet smell.
I packed them down my clay.
The charring was very sweet and pleasant. I didn't untwist and rub them up enough so it was hard to light and the smoke was very sharp. Probably too much moisture as well. It has something Oriental to it but there's also something else that I can't really make out. The sharpness really takes the fun and taste out of it. Got a third left but I'm dumping this bowl. Next time I know better.

2012 Wessex Gold Virginia Flake in a Rad Davis Apple.
Peretti Tashkent in a Brian Ruthenberg to start the week.
Good day all! Forgot to post yesterday; tried Peterson De Luxe Navy Rolls in a MM Cob; the cob added a bit of sweetness but masked some of the more delicate flavors for my allergy-challenged taste buds. Starting today with beloved Peterson Flake in a large Tilshead Semibent with tapered stem (a 7 1/2 inch flake pipe).
Today's Mid-Morning Smoke: McConnell Flake in a Dunhill 3421 Zulu shell briar, along with my handy Rodgers of Sheffield pipe knife and 1950's Nimrod Commander pipe lighter
Having Peterson Early Morning Pipe in a Peterson 999 Rhodesian with Silver Ferrule and P-lip Stem from 1998.
C&D Sun Bear Black Locust in a Wolfgang Becker wasp.
Now smoking C&D Stratfordshire in my cob that is dedicated to English blends. I dunno if anyone else dedicates cobs, but I just sort of fell into that pattern with this one when I bought it.
Not far from finishing 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.
2013 Brigham Klondike gold in a Rad Davis Billiard.
No, I didn't smoke that. One of my two bagpipes. Thought it would get a cheap laugh.
Enjoyed a nice late morning bowl of St. Bruno RR in my Musico.
Going to have Cornell & Diehl Palmetto Balkan Small Batch (1879/3000) in a Savinelli Punto Oro Corallo 621 Bent Dublin.
2017 SJF in a Savinelli Trevi 606 KS while the maintenance guy destroys what’s left of my sliding glass door “oh i guess that part wasn’t supposed to come out”…..
Serenity now … serenity now ….
Serenity now … serenity now ….
2013 Capstan Blue Flake in a Jack Howell Dublin.
