What Are You Smoking Pages.

Up early and although it is still dark, the temperature is pleasant. So I'm on the patio with a book, a cup of Kirkland Colombian, and my Barling Sovereign bent acorn with saddle stem filled with KBV Burley Morning Pipe.

It's light outside, and I've refilled my pipe with more KBV BMP, and my cup with Lavazza Perfetto.

I have had this Ropp for like 10 years and decided to give it a go and crack a new tin of Rattrays. Unfortunately it still tasted of when I cleansed it way back then with everclear.
A few more bowls and it will be allllll good.
Its a nugget of a pipe thick walls and feels great to hold so it will be a regular I reckon.
I really ,really love the profession mix anyone that wants to try a mellow english blend this one might be good in my opinion.

Cool pipe, and I guess a cherrywood. I've been thinking of trying to make a cherrywood, since I have a big tree down. I have a little Ropp acorn that smokes great, and I'm hoping to get a smoke in it today. I've wondered about that blend, and almost got some last order.

Good Morning!
Chores are done and lighters are filled. I'm starting the day with GLP Abingdon in an MM Apple Diplomat and a cup of coffee. It looks like an April snow storm is heading our way.

This morning finds me on the porch with black coffee and PA in a Oscar/Sav billiard 111 ks from the 1970s. This pipe has an unusual grain pattern. I have named it “hurricane” because of it.

Yeah, I'm up. Working on coffee and a first bowl. Didn't sleep much and I'm sputtering but my feet are on the floor. Wish me luck guys, once I get some coffee in things should smooth out. H&H in a Legend cob to start.

Smoking a Winslow Lovat, Lane LL-7, Horton`s k-cup. Cloudy day with rain on the way.

I think LL-7 is an underrated tobacco. I was a big fan of Captain Black Copper and when Lane Limited stopped making that and the grape I was too late with stocking up on it. I have a case of assorted CB tobaccos in the 12oz tubs. So I was a little disappointed I didn't get any Copper tubs and a friend who is a blender told me that LL-7 is to CB Copper in the way that 1-Q is to CB Royal. Even though it's not the exact recipe, it's very close. And he wasn't fibbing, it was very close to CB Copper. The cut is a tad different, but to me it tasted and smelled like it's Captain Black counterpart.

Couldn't sleep, so I got up, fed the ferals, and my cats, and have a third of a bowl left of Leavitt & Peirce D.P.E. in a slight bent black sandblasted post-1940 KBB Yello-Bole Cured With Real Honey Imported Briar with a reg. mark in a circle canted egg with a tapered black vulcanite stem.

Found a brass ferule of some kind, and wouldn't you know it fits the stummel of my MM country Gentleman. I also darkened the shank.

Man, now that gets me on the hunt for something like that.

On the bluff checking out rain effects and hearing distant thunder. I couldn't find an acorn (those squirrels ; -)), but did find an acorn cap for this little fella-a Ropp Virgin De Luxe acorn with KBV Verge Engine Overdrive 2022.

A third of the way through this bowl of year 2019 Ascanian No. 1 in a straight smooth dark brown 1930s (Comoy’s) The Exmoor Pipe 283 chubby Rhodesian with a tapered black vulcanite stem.

Good morning,
Smoking a Pete Baker street, CAO Bella vanilla, Mug of Yukon coffee. Rain here.

Smoking some Country Squire Baker Street in a Falcon while waiting for my lawnmower’s battery to charge.

Me too

Good morning BoBs. Trying to finish up a bowl of Urban Cowboy in a Don Carlos huge bent dublin with morning coffee. Hard to do with Augie in my lap and Charlie wanting to play fetch, lol. Nice day here. Heading to the ranch to ride later.

Good Afternoon my friends. I'm well late to the meeting today, and I humbly ask for your forgiveness, as well as your condemnation of Nurse Ratchet and her assistant Igor, who not only made me late, with the sadistic stabbing of her syringes. ( I swear Mrs Z has smaller knitting needles ). But then she and Igor
moved me into positions, that the human body wasn't designed to be in. Dang I hate Tuesdays. OK OK I hear you saying, stop whinging Zip, and tell us what your smoking.
So today my friends I have a copious and well deserved amount of Rangers beautifully blended Urban Cowboy in a Petersons Christmas 2022 XL90. And once Mrs Z gets me settled in my den, I'm going to light it up, and puff away all my woes
Have a great day y'all.

Zippos gifted Condor in an Aldo Velani smooth poker with more CR coffee. Soon as I finish this have to get breakfast and tack up for the ranch.

Starting off my smoking day with a 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 brgs is my drink. Watching Mad Dog Russo.
