Afternoon smoke with Dana then off to a smallish party where we’ll enjoy crab and ribeye. It’s at a smoking buddy’s house but I’m not sure he has a spot to smoke and the weather will be nasty here tonight so we won’t be sitting outside. Hopefully he heats up his garage so we can have a smoke.

Dinner at our place with some of our closest friends.

Cigar was to be a 2010 Sir Winston, but I'm not-so-successfully fighting a cold, so it will be put off until it wouldn't be stupid and wasteful to smoke it...hopefully next weekend.

The Winnie time was also to be my refection over the past year/resolution time, but I will still take some time this afternoon to reflect.

Happy New Year everyone!

Off to a friend’s place with the family for an early dinner and kids countdown. We should be home by 8pm or so to put the kids down. Movie with the wife and I will likely get into the garage for a cigar. Will probably go with a PSP Cohiba Genios.

Sure glad I tried this Padron 1926 Maduro early.  This is truly the most disappointing cigar of 2018 for me.  I've had probably 2 dozen Padron 1964 Maduros this year.  They are dynamite.  Always consistent, smoooooth.  This 1926 was supposed to be even better, and at a $27 price tag.

First 15min it burned decently.  Taste was good.  More complex than the 1964 but a nice cigar.  Worth the price tag?  Definitely not.  Then after 15min I couldn't keep it lit anymore.  Hooray.  

I will be enjoying one more cigar today before the end of 2018.  I can't end on that atrocity.

Stuck at home recovering from a nasty bug...so no smoking for me tonight. Had planned to enjoy a Partagas P2 from a recent 24:24 - guess I’ll have to wait a bit longer.

Despite doctor’s orders, I am going to allow myself one Victory at Sea, my favorite coffee porter that’s only available in STL a few weeks each winter - was luck enough to find a case before it all sold out.

Well managed to get out as we'd already paid a deposit in advance. Just for food then came back home. Hope this cold doesn't relapse...

But this is the left overs from the meal. We was stuffed!

For us a quiet evening at home with a nice dinner and wine.

Followed by the traditional Monte A from an '08 box and some decent Champagne.

The Monte A typically gets me from dinner until past the ball drop.

The cigar and the dinner.

Have had a terrible cold this entire holiday, starting over a week ago. ?

Missed two parties and Mr Beaver went without me. Hey, he should not just stay home. But no smoking for me because coughing and all that. ?

But on New Years Eve, went to party at wine bar in Toronto after getting stuff from dr and clearance I was no longer contagious. Funniest part was night before I had somehow lost my voice and sound like I am a sexy talker. Or just a real quiet one.

And this is a private wine club so you BYOB. I do not drink wine. I brought 2 bottles of whiskey and a sixer of assorted beers. This can then go in the locker. And this box of Bolivar inexpensive Tubos to hand out because they know I am the “Canadianbeaver’

Ha! Happy New Year!

Thank you! Hope I smoke best stuff by the weekend to make up for it! Fortunately, bourbon is a great remedy.

Cheers!
