This is the third or fourth name for this recipe. FOR RECIPE, SCROLL TO BOTTOM BEFORE TWEAKS!

Now a fifth. As I started to type I had to tend to chores and those little tasks that crop up from time to time. 'Cept laundry. I can always turn the dryer back on for 10 minutes to iron that load of delicate flannel shirts and jeans.

I'm changing the name. Not the title. The other day I decided to change the name of some of my recipes as I revisited them. They weren't public yet, so it didn't really matter. It wouldn't matter if I did it afterwards either.

I'll get to the name change in a bit. First I want to talk about Watermelon. I have recipes with different manufacturers.

I really, really, really, like watermelon. In the summer I'll buy two at a time. I'll take them home, cube the innards and pack the cubes in those plastic server bowls with the lid. I could have 6 or 8 stacked up at a time in my fridge. Just about every day I'd grab a container and eat the watermelon.

Now I'm here to tell you it's good for most of ya. I would always sprinkle the tiniest bit of salt on the melon and it would taste sweeter. Too much and it's ruined. Sorta like a squeezin' a lemon over a honeydew melon, the taste changes. Not only does watermelon have good stuff like the vitamins, its loaded with water. (Believe it or not.)

I'm talking about Watermelon the vape flavoring in this recipe, and I don't think salt nor lemon will help this one.

A few days ago I was a witness to a "watch me pull a rabbit out of a hat", trolling. I didn't know at the time what the rabbit really was, but I didn't give it my worry. Thats when I changed the name to Troll juice. (Spoiler : NOT my final name for this recipe).

This morning I chose Witches Hand. It's still not sticking. Couple reasons. I didn't want brew, or potion, and kinda didn't want any visual of a hand in a vape tank with my recipe. I liked this recipe, though it needs some work.

Can't be a dissin' on people who believe in witches. Or Voodoo, etc. I did watch the movie "The Wizard of Oz" quite a few times and there was a good witch in the movie named Glenda. (Spoiler 2 : NOT the name of the juice).

I didn't want TROLL juice either. I knew when I made the Troll name, it was going to be a "trolling" to a very small private group of friends who would understand and laugh with me. (Spoiler 3 : You're not that significant to me).

Trolls are loveable cute little figurines usually made of rubber with a wild colored hairstyle. I like those troll's, they are mischievous, for those that believe. I'm part Irish and "wee (pun) believe". (Spoiler 4 : Thats a clue).

So the flavor of Watermelon in vape. Ugh!

The struggle was real. (This is an example where some diy mixers are saying, I don't have that brand; and other's are saying, I've got that flavor and brand, with a smile). It happens when you look at someone else's recipe.

I didn't care for the first 20 Watermelon flavored juices I mixed. That's a lot of work for a mixer.

The recipe isn't a Conspiracy Theory either. I'll get to it. (SPOILER - You've got it, not the name either).

The Watermelon flavor ingredient for vape is interesting. I wanted a hero in this recipe, and maybe I could have finished this recipe and found it. What I do know, is its a flavor AND a nuance. Really similar to my Kiwi recipes experience. (Spoiler : It's not Irish).

It's the elusive transparent tape on my desk that grows legs and scurries away when I even think about reaching for it.

Back in the day, I'd read about vape and make a shopping list of flavors for my weekly or biweekly order. There will always be something new to try your first couple years of mixing.

So lets explore the recipe. It's not Harry Potter or Merlin. The magic is if it fits your taste. Ballpark on this one for me.

Not Witches Hand.

Not Troll Juice.

Not Glenda.

Not Irish ?!

Not a Conspiracy.

"Whatcha vapin'?"

"Yard Gnome."

I could of said Garden or Porch or Desk Gnome. I like this recipe enough to want to play with and enjoy it.

"I was all out of those plastic yard pink Flamingo's".

Yard Gnome

LA Watermelon. 4%
Tpa Ripe Strawberry. 4%
Tpa Blueberry Xtra. 4%
Tpa Bavarian Cream 1.5%
Tpa Graham Clear. 1%
Tpa Sweet Cream. 1%

WHAT?!?!? NO MARSHMALLOW ?

I have entered the twilight zone.

Tweaks. I ask myself why BVC and not another cream. Why Ripe Strawberry instead of Sweet Strawberry? Why the Blueberry Xtra? If i mixed this up right now and vaped it I could tell you my direction, but it's been years since I had this.

Now I kinda wish I had the fresh ingredients so I could mix this and satisfy my own curiosity. It's diy.

has nothing to do with vaping (or your recipe) but just wanted to mention about salt on melons... try "salt substitute" (potassium chloride) for some reason it taste great with fruits... especially melons!
I've used it when I was told I had blood pressure issues. It is good. I'm back on real salt now. :)
