lissa: What flavors did you order?

 

[lissa5168]

Kona Coffee Milkshake and Black Cherry Marshmallow.

Mmmmmmm, good choices! Remember to take the cap off and let them "breathe" for about 24 hours, allowing the alcohol to evaporate. It makes a big difference (to me anyway)!

I have the best results (especially with the all VG juices) by opening up and letting breathe an hour, recapping, then steeping in the ultrasonic for an hour. After that, I take the caps off again and let them breathe overnight a couple of nights.

At that point I will usually drip to sample, but most high or all VG still needs to age a bit for my taste. Some have surprised me though and been ready at that point.

It's cold here and snow half an inch today...didn't stick to the roads but is still on the deck and grass. I came home and put on a big pot of chili...should be good here in an hour or so.

 

[lissa5168]

Chili sounds yummy!

 

[kittypie]

Yum chili is right! Topped with some cheddar cheese and a dollop of sour cream...yum! Sorry, but I'm super envious of your snow!

 

[lissa5168]

I am envious, too. (All but the snow!)

Kittiepie, I just saw we are only a few hours apart. I'm in East TN. In fact, we are headed your way to the Ikea store there soon.

 

[MemeNPop]

Chili Sounds fabulous but I'm not so psyched about Chilly!

Heard we might get a few flurries Kittypie

 

[MemeNPop]

lissa5168 are you near Knoxville? I met some awsome vapors while I was in east TN a couple of weeks ago. I almost went to the vape meet in Knoxville but we ended up heading back to NC too soon.

 

[Iowa Gal]

You know...I complain about it every year..and there are times it's overwhelming but I do enjoy the four seasons..each has it's own beauty. I love winter comfort food chili, stew, ham and beans ...yummy

 

[Angiebubs]

Kona Coffee Milkshake and Black Cherry Marshmallow.

Yum! Some of my favorites-for me, both of these were even better after uncapped for a day or two then shaking for a couple weeks-continue to get better with time!!!

Yep! About 25 minutes away. That's my "home group" ... I was out of town for the October vape meet, but that's the first one I've missed since they started having them. We almost had a chance to meet!

 

[MemeNPop]

Lissa5168 That would have been awesome. I really wanted to go and we left there about 2 hours before the vape meet. But we had a drive ahead of us so we just couldn't stay. My husband was doing a job in Lenoir City and I visited Mike who has a shop there. He was Awesome!! I am definitely going to stop in at the new store he is opening in Farragut on my way home to Oklahoma for Christmas.

 

[lissa5168]

Yep, Mike is a great guy! There is also an awesome shop off the 407 exit on I-40 on the flea market building. You would love them!

You'll have to tell me when you head this way again. Maybe we could meet for a bite to eat. Likewise, I'll let you know when we head to Charlotte. Love meeting other ECF'ers!

 

[MemeNPop]

Sounds Great! I would love to meet some other ECF'ers too. Do we have vape meets here, Kittypie?

 

[kittypie]

Maybe some flurries tonight, Meme! Did you stock up on milk, bread, and eggs? At least we won't starve, we can always go to IowaGal's place for leftover chili, right IG? What's that you say? No leftovers? Bah!

I haven't ever been to the ikea here. Kitties don't like shopping, except on the internet.

Madvapes has a vape meet at their brick & mortar store every once in a while. I'm super shy and socially awkward in person, but I would love to go to one if someone I "know" is going to be there. I'll give them a buzz and see if they any have scheduled!

Have a wonderful day, VVers, and stay warm!

P.S. Speaking of chilly weather...LouP we be missing you!

 

[Angiebubs]

its 16 degrees out right now-and THAT is warmer than when I was outside earlier letting the poor chickens out!!

 

[kittypie]

Whoa, Angiebubs! Now that's cold! Poor chickens...I'm such a sap I'd probably let them come inside. How many chickens do you have?

 

[Iowa Gal]

Kitty there are plenty of leftovers We could whip up a little corn bread and have a feast. We're a little warmer than you Angie at a whopping 27...but no wind today which is such a nice break.
