Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am smoking year 2021 first production Watch City Simply Orange Virginia in a black sandblast medium bend Peterson POTY 4AB No. 182/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem.

I am going to continue working on my Edward G Robinson. First bowl was magical. Last 3 haven’t been on that level. I wish I could remember what pipe I smoked it in. Any advice. I am sipping it slowly. However I sat down my last bowl and came back to it and the last 2/3 bowl was closer to the first bowl.
A small to mid-medium bowl works best for me.
 
Now smoking Seattle Pipe Club Gentleman’s Rum Vanilla (Limited Edition) in a medium bend fumed tan crackled year 2020 Ahmet Govem reverse calabash meerschaum with a military mount silver band and black acrylic stem. This crumble cake aro goes on sale March 19th at 6 p.m. Working on a review of this blend. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Enjoyed a tasty Snap Dragon apple, and my last smoke of the day is year 2013 Capstan Blue Ready Rubbed in a smooth dark brown post-WWII Comoy’s Grand Slam 340 patent billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Running low on this tin.

Great looking pipe Professor!
Thank you. I have been looking for this one for quite a while, but they usually sell within 15 minutes of listing. I tried the more available Peterson Barley 106, but the one I ordered came with a noticeable fill on the front of the bowl, so I just returned it. I lucked out finding this Supreme. It smokes like a dream!
 
Good morning my friends. Still not up to having a smoke, but I'll get there.
Thanks guys for all the well wishes an advice. Thanks to @ftrplt. My Mum also had that recipe. We called it a "Hot Toddy".
Although I have 2 sugars added to it. But I agree it works great. God bless our Mums. Enjoy your day, and your smokes my friends. And in the words of another famous pipe smoker, Gen MacArthur.
"I'll shall return"
 
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am nearing the last quarter of this bowl of year 2000 VaPer Three Nuns in a 1938 straight black grain relief Dunhill OX Shell bulldog with a silver band repair with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Haven't smoked this first year Ascorti pipe in a long time. It was always a VaPer Three Nuns pipe back in the day. Lavazza Classico, neat

I've had another lapse in posting. Been a busy bee lately. Just got my first Peterson last week, and first P-Lip. I've got John Bull smoldering right now.

So, how do you clench one of these things? Or don't you?

With the P-Lip, it kinda depends on your tooth pattern!! I finally found that "sweet spot" between my uppers and lowers on the right side of my mouth!!! Left side is hopeless!! It does take some getting used to!! FWIW, FTRPLT

A third of the way through this bowl of pre-2014 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
