Thats a fine looking pipe you have there DC What are you smoking in it?

Tell her that "old" and "classy" have a very subtle but distinct difference.

Or tell her you were practicing your Gimli impression.

my favorite house blend from my B&M. not sure what all is blended in it, but the pouch smells like a camp fire and it smokes with a slightly sweet yet campfire'esq flavor. reminds me of being a kid and sitting at the campfire with my parents after dark drinking hot coco or hot vanilla.

As to my issue with the stem coloration just spent 30 mins with some wet 1500g paper and its all nice and black again. I will try to polish it tomorrow with some steel wool, then hit it with some wax.
