Throat much, much better. I'm pretty much vaping as I please again but I'm concentrating on my most recent 6-pack which is 60% VG instead of my usual 70% (and I ordered a 3-pack at 50/50.) It's a question of how to find that happy medium -- too much PG dries out my throat and too much VG gives me a stomach ache. The 50/50 is going to be at 150% because if it turns out to be too VG-ish, I can add a little plain PG (which I have) without ruining the flavor.

Mini-reviewlets.

Custom Chocolate Cheesecake - for someone who believes chocolate is the second most perfect food in the world (soft shelled crabs are first but I don't want to vape them), I've had a very hard time finding chocolate vapes I like. Most of them taste like baking chocolate or chocolate liqueur to me. I don't like those faddish 97% cocoa chocolate bars. I like Hershey's and Cadbury's. So the only chocolate vape ingredient I've found that I like is the one in Deej's Chocolate Taffy and Mellow Chocolate. I asked for Chocolate Cheesecake with that one instead of the "rich chocolate swirls" he usually adds.

The result is very good -- chocolatey and cheesecakey without being too rich, dense or cloying. I'm enjoying it a lot but I don't think there's really a need for it. I already vape Chocolate Taffy (alone and with Peppermint Taffy) and Mellow Chocolate. This has a very similar taste profile to them so it doesn't really add anything to the party for me. So while I'm going to enjoy every drop in this 30ml bottle (and may even lick the bottle clean), I doubt I'll reorder it.

Sybil's Obsession -- this is a very sophisticate blend. You can taste all the elements (espresso, vanilla, chocolate, peppermint and cream.) I love peppermint vapes but peppermint is such a strong flavor it tends to overwhelm anything you pair it with. But deej's magical touch resulted in the perfect balance. I can taste a hint of it on the inhale but it doesn't really show up until the exhale and, even then, it's part of the mix, not the dominant flavor. I've only been vaping this for a couple of days and it's really growing on me. My only hesitation is that I taste something like anise on the inhale. I'm not a fan of black licorice and it's not one of the flavors in the blend. My guess is that it's either the espresso or the way the peppermint expresses itself on the inhale. So, for the first few puffs I thought "no way" but, as I said, it's definitely growing on me. I won't know until I finish the bottle whether it will be a regular but if you like anise and the other listed flavors, this is definitely worth trying.



The orange bottle caps and I don't like each other. I have to fight with them to get them off and fight harder to get them back on straight.

I promise there's no Anise in Sybil's Obsession!

I apologize for not using standard caps on your order... I beg forgiveness!

Morning everyone...I was just checking in to see how things are going for Deej......I have to go back to find his post....so I though I would post first.......Hope things are going well....

I figure I've got a solid week of hammering away at the backlog before I'm caught up.

Some people have decided not to wait and have cancelled their orders... some apologetically, some rather rudely.

I've definitely learned that a significant number of people don't read the notices on the site's homepage...

Otherwise, things are going as well as they can. I still have equipment that needs to be brought online, and some other equipment was damaged in the move and I'm not in a good position to replace it all at once... so... meh.

I'm hopeful that I'll be able to get my pumping equipment back in operation tomorrow or Saturday. That will increase my output 3-fold.

Nothing to forgive. I didn't ask for them. With standard caps you don't get the great drip tips. And I love them. But for some reason the orange caps don't cooperate with me as well as the dark blue ones do. I'll manage. These aren't like the old childproof caps that required a hammer and chisel to remove.

I know there's no anise but there is something that hits my tastebuds on the inhale like a little bit of it. Regardless, it's a lovely, complex flavor. Still growing on me.

I have 3 unopened 30ml bottles of 60/40 and 3 that I've got at least 20ml left in. So I'm good for several weeks. Feel free to put my order at the back of the queue.

Where's my @#!$%@# order!!!!


~ j/k! ~

Deej - Don't worry about the losers who were rude .. it's their loss. And considering the circumstances, you are better off without customers who can't read. Save you headaches in the long run!

You can set my stuff aside til you are caught up, I am not in need at all. Really, I have plenty of deliciousness to vape. I know one order is packing but the other two can be set aside. Better to help a new customer who doesn't know how wonderful the service really is.

And don't forget to breathe!


Hiya everyone else .. hope all is well!

:)

Good morning y'all

Sorry to hear that some equipment got damaged in the move Deej. It doesn't sound like it was an easy move. sigh. I'm good with my order being put towards the end of the list, so that you can fill orders for new customers and people in dire need. Both newbies and people low on liquids will then realize that they need to try more flavors and always make sure they have a nice stash of tasty stuff. :D

Now that I've slept on it 'n' everything, Witch and I have decided on a new policy.

If it takes us longer than 1 calendar week to get your order out the door, we will be adding $25 in Rewards Points to your balance. Doesn't matter what the order size is, as long as it's a paid order. Orders paid entirely by Gift Certificates won't qualify.

We're doing this to express our deep appreciation for your patience. It'll also keep us REALLY focused on getting our turnaround back to what it used to be.

This goes into effect immediately.

Incredibly generous. But shouldn't you wait until you've caught up with the moving backlog?

Favor needed.

The Paper Conservation Department at the Philadelphia Museum of Art (aka my sister and her staff) spearheaded a project to standardize the descriptions of art works on paper. They've been working on it with paper conservators at a dozen or so museums for ages. It's online and they need hits. (Clicks from unique email addresses will be counted.)

If you get a chance, click here: Guidelines For Descriptive Terminology For Works Of Art On Paper and then on the PDF. Thanks.

You can read it if you want (and if you can understand it.)
