Not far from finishing this bowl of 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. Simply Lemonade is my drink.
 
Now smoking Wessex Gold Brick in a smooth 2002 medium bend eight sided panel top straight grain Rinaldo Collection Silver Line F Egea 05 Titania bulldog with a black acrylic stem. Got a plug of it, but not quite all of it fit in a jar, so I have enough for a couple of bowls while I age the rest of the brick.

Almost half way through this bowl of Peterson Summertime Blend 2015 in a 1975 medium bend sandblasted looking, smooth on the sides yellow Pioneer meer with a black vulcanite stem. A bottle of Mountain Dew made with pure cane sugar is my drink. Time for Mad Dog Russo.
 
Almost finished smoking D&R Ryback Gold in a 1980 medium bend black sandblasted silver band Peterson Donegal 805 Bulldog and a black vulcanite p-lip stem. This blend taste good, but burns fast. Small bowl, too, but I'm almost finished with the sample.
 
Now smoking year 1936 Briggs Mixture in a 1977 straight black rusticated Sir Brent billiard with a silver band repair and a brown pearl grey acrylic stem. A bottle of Bubble Up soda is my drink. Just got eleven new to me blends to review. Have to figure out what pipes to smoke them in.

First try of Sutliff Elizabethan Match. Got this back in '14 and promptly forgot about it. Had it today after work in my trusty Tinsky '15 BoB POTY.

Very pleasant VaPer. Ribbon cut which was at the perfect moisture level for me. Packed well and drew fine with just a few re-lights and tamps.

Looking forward to getting to know this more as it opens up after opening the jar.


Cheers,

RR

Relaxing after a wonderful pizza dinner with a bowl of Robert McConnell Ripe Honeydew in an egg shaped medium bend smooth Burgundy colored 1985 Caminetto with a black acrylic stem. Watching Mannix.
 
Now smoking the last of my open stash of Penzance in a 1990s smooth Peterson Captain Pete XL80 bulldog with a black vulcanite stem and p-lip.
