So, I forgot to post this yesterday. My daughter had friends over, then we ordered great pizza, then parents came over, then there was Bourbon. Yeah, got a little happy.
Had a bowl of several things I blended. Black Cavendish vanilla, Orlik Golden Sliced and a touch of Perique.
I will be smoking this most of the day in preparation of pucks and pipes. Basically just my friend Aaron and his family coming over to my house to watch the Capitals outdoors series game tonight. My wife likes the smell of copper so I can smoke it in the house, she lets me smoke everything in the house but with an extra smoker this will be the smoke today.picture is just me trying to make my wife and Aaron’s wife laugh. They think the pipes make us look like old men.
@Charles, thank you sir. My Carolina blue look, lol. This pipe is amazing. It's Rossi Rubino. It's a larger bowl and I can make it last like 45 minutes
Doing one of my favorites: A bowl of Molto Dolce in a Knute freehand I purchased at Jost pipe and tobacco store (downtown St. Louis = long gone) in 1968...
I went skydiving today to commemorate my 50th. Now I’m breaking in my new Abb’s Artisan Pipe with some Frog Morton. @Corey562 I couldn’t wait until my actual birthday. So I thought I’d smoke the first bowl after today’s adventure! It’s been a good day.
@Londy3 — Wow!! How can you be older than me?! You look much younger! You’re like Bilbo Baggins. Do you have a ring of power hidden somewhere? If so, good. Keep it secret. Keep it safe.
Just popped open a can of Granger and smoking it in my Savinelli Baronet, also opened a 1lb. box of Newminster Navy Flake to cellar and some to smoke, @Londy3, you look sharp, @jfreedy, happy birthday, I still remember when I was 50, nice pipe!

@motie2 I’m almost 100% sure I was Frog Morton in another life.

@pipeman83 -- That picture was taken in Lake County Ohio during the summer.

I get the hype. I've tried 3 different Esoterica blends in the last 24 hours. Exceptional tobacco
I call this one “Talbort Manor”. Definitely much better than my 2 previous blends with my cellar.
