| Hi,
I am getting over a cold and after a two month hiatus from pipe smoking, I picked up my cob and started with a bowl of Peterson's Irish Oak, though the cavendish was too molasses-like, and then CAO's Midnight Ride, but didn't find the leather/saddle soap flavour to my liking after such a long period of not smoking, and the fact that my cold is still effecting my sense of taste and smell. So today it's a bowl of Charles' home mix he calls "American Scottish blend". This hit the spot. It has a nice touch of nutty sweetness and is burning easily in my flowered Meer.
Gotta love this time of year. Yesterday was Spring-like, cool and comfortable, today the warm front moved northward and it is humid and warm. Time to go sweat in the garden.
Regards, Lisa Marie |

| McB's Navy Flake in a Svendborg Padouk. I like the hint of honey that pops up now and then. A fine blend of burley and other goodies. But that high nicotine buzz!

| Since yesterday's American Scottish blend tasted so good, I chose a Virginia, McC 5100, which is a blend I haven't smoked in many months. It isn't burning as easily due to the nature of the cut and moisture content. I should have let it dry out overnight. Still, it hits the spot while smoking it in a Denmark made HAJ pipe.
