BTW - the tobacco is also good for keeping some kinds of garden pests away from plants. I spread them around the plants I see signs of damage from the little critters - and it does help!

As far as my ashtray - I have several that were either given to me, or acquired very cheaply. I smoke outside, and tend to leave them on the patio. I'm afraid to spend big money, because most have suffered the effects of being exposed to the elements...
