Sometimes I make things that aren’t food or drink. I’ve been stuck figuring out a stem for this pipe for years. This week I had an epiphany. It’s slow going but a good way to burn a few hours a night in the shop. #PipeMaking #PipeSmoker #PipesAndTobacco

Between work and cat watching, managed to do some cooking. Whipped up a quickie nikujaga and vegetable fried rice. The youngest’s boyfriend loves nikujaga. He’s done well with culinary exploration. If you’re gonna eat here, you’ll get a highly varied cuisine. #Food_and_Cooking #foodies

Waiting for my experimental clear ice to temper, then I’ll crack a rock off and pour 2 fingers of overproofed wheated bourbon and get back to cooking
