Dirty Donuts are so Good.
In my experience, you have ZERO chance of convincing SWMBO that pipe smoking is "OK". But at least now she (usually) does not curse when she knows I've been smoking a pipe. But I try to do it only while she is not home and I clean myself up afterwards.
I'm pretty lucky I guess. The wife let's me smoke a pipe in the house and occasionally, I will past the pipe over to her for a few draws from it herself. I do keep my pipe smoking in the den and also have a Rabbit Air HEPA air purifier in the den as well.
Cigars however, are outside only, or at most in the winter time, I can lift the garage door and have the Kerosene heater going.
