What Time Is Your Favorite Time to Smoke?

[mso489]

After meals and later in the evening, not so much in the morning for me.

On weekends, in the morning with a cup of coffee after breakfast. Weekdays, as soon as I get home from work, recapping the day and planning the next with my laptop. Industry or leisure, the pipe works well with both :puffpipe:
Right now isn't bad either, perusing the forums before dinner, a quiet Sunday afternoon with a good pipe full of Elizabethan mixture.

As soon as I get home from work, around 5:15 pm. It offers a great "transition time" from work mode to family mode, so I don't bring the stress of work life into the house with me.

These late-in-the-summer nights when it starts to get a little bit colder during the evening and you can sense the difference in the air. On the porch or down in my woodshed with the pipe of choice.

Saturday morning when everyone aside my wife is still sleeping.

Late night every day when everyone AND my wife is sleeping
Morning pipes while driving with cup of coffee. Afternoon pipes when driving back home.
Actually anytime whenever no one bothers me and i can have a peaceful smoke

All day. Anytime.

In late afternoon and evenings. I'm not a morning smoker. Although many people are, I just can't get into it.

I prefer to partake in the evening, sitting with a pipe is a nice way to end the day.

I mostly smoke in the late evening while out for a walk. This often coincides with a gabfest with JimInks and I refer to the conflation of phone call and urge to smoke as the "Jim Effect".

1-2 bowls a week. Friday evening after dinner, Saturday after lunch or after dinner.

I haven't smoked cigarettes regularly in 30 years. If I still did a morning smoke with coffee would be automatic.

I sleep late and occasionally still have my litre of coffee by the time I light a pipe, but it is into the afternoon.

All of that said, I prefer after dinner for a few to several bowls. I love a room full of pipe smoke. I am careful enough to think before I smoke, as I do not want to fall asleep with a lit bowl. So, I have my cutoff time, which is by 9 or 10 pm.

My favorite time is whenever I can corner someone to smoke with me. It's harder than it sounds. After that, my favorite time is any time I can squeeze in a smoke. I have two dogs to walk, so it is almost impossible to smoke on my dog walks now. grr.

Mine is around a camp fire either on a shooting or fishing trip, camping in the bush or on the beach. I only smoke my pipes away from the public either out in the never never or at home or around a few friends places. Strangely, reformed smokers wife's ask me to come inside to smoke because they like the smell, like grandpas. I bet a lot of you guys would have had that same experience.

12 pm with my cup of hot filter coffee and 7 pm after all work is done. ...almost religiously.

Sometime I might have a 3rd bowl during the weekend.

 

[instymp]

Now that I am retired, start in the AM & smoke till I go to bed.

I love a few bowls right after school whilst doing homework. So relaxing and takes the edge off of a long day!

Saturday morning, right before work.
There's a nice little park by the lake and if you get there early enough you can watch the sunrise. It's also the only time I can enjoy a pipe. Something about the taste/smoke/sunrise/quiet/solitude.

 

[sumusfumus]

I try to smoke my pipe after lunch, between 1:00 PM -2:30PM....and then again, right around dusk. Love sitting on my back deck, alone, and love to smoke especially if it's a cool, breezy, evening. Indian Summer...the best! Autumn in New York can be quite lovely. The stench of filthy streets, car exhaust, and the smell of hot sidewalks seems to drift away with October's refreshing breezes. Years ago The Drifters sang a song called "Up On the Roof". Good tune. But my magical respite from Life happens on my back deck. The briar gently tempers my solitude, and the aromatic tobacco smoke evokes pleasant nocturnal reveries.

About 30 minutes after sunset: it has started to cool down, the crickets are chirping and the early stars start shining through the last traces of dusk in the sky. It’s also not as hot outside, the kids are quiet inside, and have I mentioned it’s a little cooler outside? Smoking a pipe outside in Texas in the summer...

I enjoy my morning smoke with coffee so much, I spend a good hour doing it. Then the several smokes throughout the day are wonderful. Finally, I smoke a third of a bowl driving my woman to work around 11pm, and the rest on the drive back. On occasion, I'll have one more bowl before I sleep. Those are my favorite times to smoke.
