Morning smoke of Amphora Original brown in an Ashton XX Old Church long Canadian
Did a little low calorie snacking, and am at the half way mark of this bowl of Watch City Jim’s Golden Ticket in a year 2018 black PBS medium bend Peterson Sherlock Holmes Series Baskerville with a sterling silver band and black vulcanite p-lip stem. Tomato the Brave ate plenty, and jumped on my lap for attention, and a thank you before going out. Harry the Hairy's back inside to nibble. Daisy the Feral Princess is still by my feet. Sleepy Suzy is by my side. Molly Danger is in bed.
I've passed the first quarter of this bowl of year 2014 Uhle’s 00 in a 2015 straight smooth dark brown Peterson Irish Harp 150 bulldog with a silver band and a tapered acrylic cumberland fish tail stem. Harry the Hairy wanted to play with the rope so we did until he got tired. Then, he got bored and went out. Daisy the Feral Princess got up to eat, and is back by my feet.
Gasparini + GL Pease Barbary Coast
Now smoking year 2020 D&R VIP in a 2004 smooth long shank Trever Talbot Ligne Bretagne Faite en Bretagne 4/3 lumberman with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Tomato the Brave came in to eat and and snooze. Daisy the Feral Princess is still snoozin' by my feet.
Haunted Bookshop Cake in a Pete SPD 2011 69.
@Benedict Munsinger That is a beautiful pipe. The rich, chocolate color contrasts nicely with the silver ring, and I do love that type of ring. I am not familiar with Gasparini, but maybe I should be.
Could not resist a Southern Draw Manzanita on this beautiful night.

Last smoke of the day is year 2020 Angler's Dream in a 2018 natural smooth medium bend Peterson 03 apple silver spigot military mount with a tapered black acrylic fish tail stem. Reading while this bowl lasts.
A bowl of Pegasus in the Jirsa workhorse and off to run errands.
I smoke Mac Baren Classic in a 1947 Dunhill Billiard Shell.
Wow. I've never been there. I remember seeing the rock from afar when I did the first phase of training in the army in February 1991.

! The ring is actually nickel, not silver — but it doesn’t diminish the aesthetic harmony at all. Gasparini pipes have a distinctive Italian character and this one smokes beautifully.
Peterson Christmas 2012 xl90
Robert McConnell – Marylebone (Heritage Series)
A refined Scottish mixture with Cavendish, Latakia, and Orientals. Ribbon cut, no added flavorings.
Medium strength — smooth, balanced, and quietly elegant.
Among RMC blends, this one stands out for me — consistent, nuanced, and satisfying every time.
