Smoking a bowl of GH Kendal Dark in a Comoy's Guildhall billiard.

I am not a frequent aromatic smoker but that Rivendell is good.
 
Celebrating wife's BD with mimosas and blueberry scones. Pete Rosslare packed with McB plum cake for after. Trying to emulate Sid's great pics. Don't think I have the artistic touch that he does, lol.

Sutliff Voodoo Queen in a meerschaum bowl Falcon.

First pipe in several days as I've been under the weather. Interesting that with my nasal passages being all dried up from Diphenhydramine that I'm smelling and "tasting" via retrohale different nuances than usual with this blend. The Perique especially prominent today, both pepper and prune/date, also a little more of mocha flake. Makes me wonder if folks living in drier climates like Arizona experience tobaccos differently than those of us from more humid climates. Could account for some of the differences with tobacco reviews. ???

I can tell you without question when it gets hot outside like 90 or above, nothing tastes any good. Everything to me loses it's character and is bland and boring. Not worth smoking a pipe when it's like that, and I smoke outside exclusively. Maybe other zoni's have a different experience, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it. So my pipe smoking goes down to zilch for ~5 mo/yr.


Cheers,

RR

Not quite up to Sid's standards without the lovely backdrop of Greece, but . . . maybe one of those awesome Prescott sunsets with the pipe in the foreground? That would do it!

I'll try for one of those soon. Sunset was awesome as we left our favorite steakhouse in Dewey last night. Should have taken a shot.
 
Fantastic day. Rivendell and coffee this am. Mimosas and scones for brunch, McB lux navy flake in a Pete after. Guacamoli, salsa and margharitas for afternoon appetizers. Cairo and cav blend in Stanwell pipe of the year after. My own concoction, french bread with pesto sauce, tomatoes and provolone cheese under the broiler for dinner. Red wine of course. Now FMOTT in an 80s vintage Sav Estrella Non Pareil for dessert. God I love this woman. In my garage nook once again wondering when the Doc says I can ride again. Wishing all you guys the same joy and happiness.

I switch over to mostly burleys and a few aros that I like. But we are in the mountains so don't suffer the heat you guys have in the valley.
