What Are you Smoking 07/2019?

It's safe to say that this is the best bowl of Mississippi River that I've had.

Stokkebye Natural Dutch Cavendish in a shop pipe.

Relaxing after a wonderful trout and potato salad sinner with a vanilla ice cream cone for dessert. Part way through this bowl of year 2014 Saint James Flake in a smooth straight Lane era Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. Getting set to watch Elementary.

Now smoking Sutliff Prince Albert Match in a 1980s straight smooth Big Ben pot with a nickel band and a black vulcanite saddle stem. Working and listening to Art Garfunkel.

Now smoking D&R Raccoon’s Delight in a 2004 Stanwell EM 2004 black sandblasted straight billiard in a gold accent ring on the shank and gold “s” on the black tapered acrylic stem.

Now smoking old Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 1982 black sandblasted paneled slight bend Savinelli flat bottom sitter with a black vulcanite saddle stem.

A few puffs of Voodoo Queen in a Briar Spirit

About a quarter of the way through this bowl of old Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 1982 black sandblasted paneled slight bend Savinelli flat bottom sitter with a black vulcanite saddle stem. A bottle of Cheerwine made with pure cane sugar is my drink.

Now smoking year 2010 Dunhill Flake in a slight bend 1968 group 4S Dunhill Shell 475 cherrywood with a black vulcanite tapered stem.

Relaxing after a wonderful lunch, which included a foot long Nathan's Dog, a hamburger, and some terrific llama jerky. Eating the latter was an incredible experience and I'm glad I have more for later. Now smoking F&T Special Brown Flake in a smooth straight WW2 Pre-Republic Peterson Sterling Canadian with a sterling silver band and a black vulcanite p-lip stem. Finally, a day that isn't insufferably hot, and it looks like we're going to get a bit of rain, which we could use.

Waiting on coffee to brew and then finishing off the bowl of Voodoo Queen. I've been looking forward to it all day.

C&D Yorktown in one of my JB Eggs.

Afternoon, gents. C&D Crooner in the old Savinelli Bing's Favorite. Espresso. Low-sodium V8. Cool water.

Had a necessary snooze and am now smoking the last of this sample of year 2012 FVF in a 2002 black sandblast full bend D.R. Ardor Urano Fatta A Mano with a slightly tapered far side of the bowl and a black acrylic saddle stem. Ice tea and bergs is my drink. Watching Mad Dog Russo.

I'm guessing Voodoo Queen is a perique-heavy blend? haha

After snacking on a tasty cherry danish, enjoying a bowl of my go-to Arango Balkan Supreme in the XX Ashton Oldchurch squashed tomato. Cool water. Will be time to feed the kitties afterwards (Squeak, Mama and Sam.)

About to take it to the livingroom for some serious smoking. 

Connoisseur's Choice followed by a now drying bowl of Erinmore, then we'll see where the road takes me. 

Also thinking about ordering some Chinese food.  A send-off to the good life before diving back into ketosis.

Actually, it's not that bad. Its mellow and everything mingles nicely with eachother. When I first ordered it, i was honestly expecting a lot more perique.

I havent smoked any in a while because all of my jars are cellared for later. I picked up 8 oz last week and I dont see this bag lasting too long.

Waiting on this triple digit heat index to at least get down to 99. Once that happens I have a bowl of Marble Kake waiting for me.
