Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of C&D Scarlet Cache (Winter Reserve 2024) in a 2002 IMP smooth full bend egg shaped meer with a black acrylic saddle stem. Writing a review of this blend. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Scarecrow in a Savinelli Saturnia 707KS.
Influenced by a post from @jbfrady in the "Opening A Tin" thread, a bowl of Robert McConnell Red Virginia in a Crown Jewels pot. A bit more chilly out today, but I really do enjoy this weather. No sweltering, no bugs.
This morning, Sir John's Flake Virginia in an Altinok.
Listing this early: C&D Kringle’s Delight (Winter Reserve 2024) 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.
Afternoon smoke and coffee with my Ismail Baglan Old Man Meerschaum and some GL Pease - Chelsea Morning.
Rouxgaroux in a Peterson Jekyll and Hyde
Dragon Flake in the Viprati Sabbiata and a Pilsner. Listening to some Phil Lesh & Friends
Back home and working on finishing off this jar of Bluegrass. A few pipes should suffice for the task. 
KBV Colonial Reserve in a Savinelli Linea Piu 3.
Relaxing with a bowl of Hh BK in my 1936 171 bruyere…. after a big day of staining.
Had just enough Cairo and Dark Flake Unscented left to fill a bowl. Seriously unimpressed with my blending skills.
Capstan Blue Ready Rubbed in a Miscoi Canadian 
Will have another McClelland beauty for my Nov Pipe Club Brothers.
Sept = McClelland Royal Cajun Special
Oct = McClelland Oriental #1
Nov = will bring McClelland Arcadia 221 ('08 tin, maybe '03?), cracked open couple weeks back to let it breath, since it hadn't had a breath of fresh air for at least 16 years, maybe 21
I'm enjoying the couple bowls I've been sampling, but not sure my taste is "sophisticated" enough to fully appreciate. NOTE: Nov meeting, I'll be bringing all 3 McClelland's!

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, striped bass, and snow peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm half way through this bowl of year 2015 Mac Baren Modern Virginia in a medium bend, smooth dark brown 1950s Peterson 999 Shamrock chubby Rhodesian with a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Watching The World Series with Sleepy Suzy by my side. Dunno why it is, but whenever I eat a salad, she sits there and watches every move I make while I'm eating it. Silly cat!
