AND HAPPY ST PATRICKS DAY TO ALL!!!

Heading out back for some Irish Coffee to start this gorgeous day with. Pipe is an old 1940s Irish Peterson 440 filled with some of the last of my supply of Frog Morton Cellar tobacco. ( Ill be so sad when its all gone as its not obtainable these days... sigh:( ) Just for grins I threw an old Tape of the Norman Blake "Whiskey Before Breakfast" album lol!

Put some soda bread in the oven and the rest of dinner is ready to warm up. Ill be back later For a good food and Guiness picture... Hummm which green hat should I wear? Maybe a tweed cap Instead

By the way my Mothers family surname is Carr... Some from County Cork down south and some from up in Ulster ( they were actually some of the Scottish Kerrs that migrated to Ireland in 1700s. They Anglicized the Kerr to Carr and later actually intermarried with real Carrs..... When my great, great, great Grandfather migrated to America in the 1820s he ended up in Putnam Co Tennessee ( guess it was actually still North Carolina back then). He found some non-related Carrs already living there and decided it must be a good place to live if they havent run the Irish off. lol To this day in Cookeville Tennessee, there are several Carrs.... half related and half un-related

…last of my supply of Frog Morton Cellar tobacco.
I have a few tins of Cellar & a few of On The Bayou. Do you have any Scottish Woods or Legends? Or maybe Greg Pease‘ Gaslight?
Put some soda bread in the oven…
I was thinking this morning of my Grandma’s fried mash potato cakes.

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day all!

Under a Keith Bros derby & behind some Green Buffalo flannel.

Ive just about run out my supply of some of the best old cellared blends and have been restocking with blends that are not at risk of dissappearing (Boswell Northwoods, Countryside, Magnum blend, mm965, Presbyterian Mixture, Petersons Nightcap, Early Morning Pipe, and C&D Morleys Best. Also still have some H&H Harvest Moon, Lux Navy Flake. For more aromatics, Ive always liked Lane BCA, 1Q, Cult Blood Red Moon, C&D Autum Evening, Erinmore Flake, MacBaren Vanilla Creme, A little Sutliff Vanilla Custard, 4th Gen 1897, Boswell Christmas Cookie, Paradise, and Boswells Best.

Im in no danger of going smokeless, just having to investigate readily available options. I kinda of drifed more into English Blends a few years ago ( more peruque and latakia) but lately have been dabbling a bit in Aros...)... I also have a serious case of PAS ( pipe acquisition syndrome). Mainly old Perersons, but Ive picked up several big Danish pipes....Nordings, Leifs, Georg Jensen, Ben Wades, Holms. Getting ready to design and build a much bigger pipe rack. Im almost out of room ( dang that sounds just like my Hat problem lol)
