Things like this make your weekend.
I had overall what I would considr a pretty crappy weekend. All sorts of things going wrong but two things made it all worth it.
The first was my good Colibri lighter no longer holding gas, it blew a seal and was cracked so I think someone dropped it on New Years. Anyhow, the awesome thing is that my wife was out later in the day and dropped into one of my B&Ms and talked to the owner and came back with a new badass torch for me as a surprise using her personal budget since things will be tight this year. I'm a lucky guy....
The second thing was the same owner of the B&M lives right in my neighbourhood, like a 5 minute walk from our place. Today we hung out at my place in my "Cigar Loft" above the garage. Damn cold day here in Toronto, -15 Celcius, with windchill its -27C but it was great to have a few heaters on and enjoy even if we did need to be wearing our winter clothes.
He brought 2 Sancho Panza Sanchos for us to enjoy (9.2", 47 Ring). Talk about a smoke you need a few hours for! It was perfect. I offered him a glass of 10 year Laphroaig and I h ad a glass of Century 21 small batch Canadian Whisky (Aged 21 years). We played chess (He beat me both times, I think he was sharking me!) and chatted about life and it was the perfect way to relax on a weekend despite the weather. Fantastic!
This is what life is all about to me! I just had to share this great experience.
