Just ordered Peterson Pipe notes XL5s and 4oz of Stokkebye night slice, 4oz of GH Brown Twist and a tin of Former Private Flake. Tried to mail a package with 3 pipes that need work to Canada but my local corner store post office does not do international packages so I will have to wait to send the box.

My restock of Belgian chocolate arrived. They won’t ship if it’s going to be more than 90 degrees anywhere between them and you, so I have to figure out in the early spring how much I need to order to make it past the hot weather. Made it to late October this time.

Out of boredom as much as anything else, I decided to check eBay and see if that guy I bought from the last time had anything interesting. (Lawitzke told me his name, but I've forgotten it.) Danged if he didn't have another birth year pipe, and danged if the auction wasn't ending in less than 90 minutes. Danged if I didn't win it.
It's a Dunnie Root Briar 360, which is a straight prince. My other princes are of the bent variety. It's about a Group 2 size, I'd say. Should be here in a week or so.

It's all mostly somewhat your fault, still. |

Arrived: a couple ounces of Wilke Santa's Blend to try. It's a cherry/chocolate kind of a thing. Thought it might be something I'd be willing to smoke a bit of indoors this winter.

Nice grain. Yup, it’s Chance. Yup, it’s group. That’s what the 2 in a circle stamp means. Happy smokes! |

Arrived: The birth year Dunnie Root Briar prince I snagged on eBay last week. For a Group 2, it's pretty big. Almost a 3.

Ordered an electric foot warmer to use in the workshop this winter and it should be here on Wednesday. Warm tootsies, warm body. True. I sit in the workshop for hours in the cold early mornings and have had problems keeping my feet warm. This foot warmer is like a fuzzy envelope with heating elements on both top and bottom. The feet simply slip inside. I hope this is the solution. |

300 round of soft point in .30 cal carbine.
Wanted some of the really top notch defensive rounds, but they are hard to find.
The M1 carbine is the wife’s bedside gun.
