This morning, Sir John's Flake Virginia in an Altinok.
A quarter of the way through this bowl of C&D Warped: Scarecrow 2024 in a 1986 three quarter bend Bacchus face CAO meer with a tapered dark tortoise shell colored acrylic stem. Working on a review of it. The white burley seems stronger this time. Watching the Tigers-Guardians game.
HU Tobacco - Nebari in a Radice and a Cup of Joe.
Bosun Cut Plug in an IMP Poker

on the side.

McClellands Bombay Court in a Willmer AAA brandy shape.
Besides a few MB and GH/SG aros, they’re mostly hot air and disappointment. I do keep a jar of RLP-6 on hand for those times I’m reminiscing about the early days of my journey into pipes.

Settling down for a nice bowl of Cornnell & Diehl's Small Batch Sun Bear Black Locust. I love this stuff, but reserve it for especially trying days, since I didn't buy enough of it when I had the chance. 
I actually enjoy it…but hearing about the tongue bite it can give I smoke it in a pipe with a filter and it works for me. Maybe give a filter a whirl and see how it goes.
Now smoking year 2013 Capstan Blue Flake in a post 2007 Castello straight brown Sea Rock KK US made in Cantu (Kimo) apple with a tapered black acrylic stem. Wrote a fair amount of review notes, and cleaned a few pipes while watching the ball game. Just fed the extra hungry Sleepy Suzy, too.
Settling with some Lancer Slices after a long day at work. In a cheapy bullcap 
Enjoying some Bayou Morning in my new to me Rossi Vittoria Billiard and some IPA. The experience is a bit different from the cobs that I'm used to, I feel the Rossi tends to gurgle, unlike cobs.
Mac Baren London Blend '22 in Peterson Irish Harp X105 Smooth Billard with a cup of Green tea while checking out the Northern Lights. (The pink/purple band above and to the right of the green light) I'm happy I was able to see it with all of the light pollution here.
Chenet's cake in an Eltang long shanked Dublin snail I got at novelli.it.
Well, lookie what showed up on the porch today...

This is a second Celebi pipe. After trying out a lower priced model previously, I decided to give one of their higher end pipes a go. This deep lattice reverse calabash is a looker with the silver trimmings.
First bowl is going to be 2010 Stonehaven.

Had some bite for sure, most toppings are off putting to me, this one had a weird metallic sweet taste, I’d happily donate the tin to you if you want it.
