What I Found On My Kitchen Table... Revealed!

[twangthang]

Well a week or so ago I posted a picture on some mystery packages my wife left me on the kitchen table for my birthday. I waited and waited, and finally the day has come!

The wife threw the scent off the bottle shaped object by telling me it was French. And she wasn't lying...exactly! It is French Oak.

The pipe is what I asked her for and she hit the nail on the head.

Your wife has excellent taste!! Happy Birthday, and enjoy BOTH of your gifts! What tobacco are you going to use to christen that Peterson?

Congratulations on the new arrival sir! As a general question to everyone, how do scotch and whiskey tend to pair with pipe smoke?

What a fine pairing for the birthday gift! Kick back and enjoy! :clap:

Congratulations! I think we were all going to riot if you didn't reveal what was inside the packages soon...

Gentlemen, please insert the word "cunning" in place of "thoughtful" and read your posts again. Twang, whilst all of us here admire the wonderful gifts you have received and wish we all had such a wonderful and thoughtful wife as it would appear that you do...Do not be fooled! She has out flanked you without your knowledge. While you sit there mesmerized by the stunning brilliance of that exquisite pairing, you did not even notice that she has raised the gift giving bar to astounding heights right before the holidays! At least you as a pipe smoker have time to pack a bowl and contemplate the issue. You must not be outdone. All kidding aside, you have a good woman and she obviously cares a great deal about you. Enjoy your gifts and Happy Birthday.
