Beautiful and touching story. Thank you.
Roto, glad you are having a nice Christmas and time off, however short. Enjoy!
The seals just look like coated paper, some kind of plastic like stuff. Mine are sitting upright in a box in the freezer. I think I filled 8½ bottles d brought one full the half bottle home with me. Still haven't used all of the half bottle. When I shake it it the liquid beads up on the inside of the lid.
The weather here is pretty much normal for here. Sometimes the cold starts hitting in November, sometimes we don't get any lasting cold untill January into February.

I publicly proclaim that any and all photos of my waning time on earth be shared if they demonstrate and highlight the love and devotion of my loved ones.
Do I want a pic posted illustrating my involuntary leakage... no! But, Matt's sharing is ever so much about love, tenderness and respect!!!
Was Gen. Eisenhower wrong for allowing the Jewish holocaust victims photos be published? Ummm...?
Are the ads showing a smoking former cheerleader wither and die before our eyes on TV PSAs cruel? No, she wanted to warn and awaken the rest of us. Ummm...
I don't want to die, but it will happen. My dignity will be a non-issue if I'm in Doree's mom's situation. If I fall over without their ordeal, I and my family will have another blessing to be thankful for, regardless of circumstances!
BTW, I do have a DNR with only a couple of stringent caveats. Patty and my daughters know well my wishes...
Doree and Matt,
You may not have any idea how much your photo impacted my day. But, so help me, it was beautiful and touching!
None of us want to die. But one day... the expiration date is going to come... and when it does, so be it. If any of us had it our way, we'd all live forever... but it just isn't so. So, with that being said... Props @MattB101 for posting the photos. At least it shows some respect... and quite frankly, IMO, it shows that you have some honor / respect for the person despite her condition. If someone were to take a picture of me and put it up here at the end of my life... I'd have no issues with it. It will serve as a reminder - to those that believe they are indestructible - that they are very, very wrong.
At one time in my life I believed that... and still to this day, I sometimes wish I was.
Ain't it Purdy out today
It's getting to look a lot like Christmas

I don't know why this reply came out like this with my pic but any way they don't leak right and don't taste right. They sure would be easy to fill. Do you put 100mg nic in them. I'm thinking of putting my nic in them. Flavors I can easily put in the polywhatever cone and I like that.
Legs, that is so beautiful! I know it's a pita for you, tho. Did the plumber come plow the driveway? As long as the driveway is clear just batten down the hatches & consume mass quanities of hot chocolate!
Today in Suncrest WA and still snowing. White Christmas.
No leaking, no taste so far, & 100 mg/ml nic. @Debadoo has had hers longer than I have. Hoping she shows up to say.Ain't it Purdy out today

Yep and he stopped by last night to see if we wanted him to do it again but we are fine he said just call and he'll be here.
Awww, {{{{Doree!}}}} & {{{{Matt!}}}}!! Every little bite helps. I think it must be the nurse.At the nursing home with mom. Doree is feeding her lunch. Her mom isn't eating well but, she's eating well today. Maybe it's the "nurse" feeding her. A nice Christmas Eve if for no other reason.
You guys are the only ones I even feel comfortable sharing these things with. Love you all.

I am thinking of getting another Reauleux RX200. Once you have the chip figured out it vapes as good as my $200 mods with Ti. You just have to remember that the joytech chips have to be set at about 500F to get a good vape. Or you can fool the chip about the resistance of your mod and come up with the same results. Excellent like I said. Also thinking of getting a Koopor Plus with adjustable resistance and TCR. Amazing chip in that both are around $50. These chinese are coming out with some amazing stuff.
Wow, Janet! I wish I could stand up long enough to do that! I would love to try it! But I would crater 15 minutes into it & it would be ruined. I am jealous!I think I've got an hour while Miles sleeps and everybody is off doing whatever. So, here's the recipe for the Dobos Torte.
Batter
7 eggs
1/2 C sugar
1 C flour
pinch of salt
1t baking powder
Beat 1 eggs & 6 yolks with sugar till sugar melts (5-10 minutes)
Blend in flour
Beat egg 6 egg whites & salt till stiff.
Fold in yolk mixture.
Grease and flour the bottom side of cake pans. Spread batter (always scoop from the bottom) on the floured pans 1/8" about thick.
Bake at 350 degrees till edges start to turn golden - about 3 minutes
Carefully remove the cake layers to cake rack to cool.
Clean pans and re-grease and flour and repeat until batter is used up. (a generous coating of Bakers Joy works, but still has to be wiped clean before spreading on a new layer of batter)
Spread layers out and cover with wax paper if you're going to do the filling on day 2.
Filling
3 C 10X sugar
1 C softened butter
1 t almond extract
2 t strong coffee
1 t cocoa
1-2 T whipping cream
Whip until light and fluffy
Candy topping
Put 1-1/2 C sugar in a small heavy pot and put the pot on medium heat until the sugar melts. It'll take awhile. Don't stir until the most of the center section has melted. As soon as it's all melted and golden brown pour over the top layer.
Assemble the Cake
Spread a thin layer (1/8-1/4") of filling between each layer of cake until you have 9-12 layers. Save the best looking layer for the top. Trim the outside of the cake with a serrated knife if necessary. Add 1 t of cocoa to leftover filling and coat the sides of the cake.
Put the best looking top layer on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and spread the Candy topping on the layer to cover. Work quickly because this will harden very fast (and it's very hot so be careful).
Heat a knife to almost glowing and score the candy layer into 16 sections (where you'll be cutting the cake layers later.
Put the candy top layer on the cake and touch up the filling/icing where necessary.
We usually make the layers one day and assemble the next day. It helps to have 2 people making the cake layers.
