Older Folks and Vaping Front Porch - Part 5

[Kodak]

I have only had one mix that I was never ever able to adjust and make vapeable. It was an extract that I made to vape and it took me several days to get the taste out of my mouth...

I had one that made me gag and then I literally couldn't taste anything for almost 2 weeks. It was bad! Had a grape flavor in it. Apparently grape flavors put my mouth into sleepy mode for some reason I have the grape flavors from FA but have been hesitant to try them lol.

Here's your answers....
1. Definitely the big sister

Most Definitely!! And I luvs my big sister!

2. STOP RUINING MY REPUTATION!!!

Hahahahaha!!! Nope! Little brothers are SUPPOSED to be bratty!

3. And there's one I'm not happy with that I'd like to be *sigh* (shambles off mumbling about stupid berry cobbler that won't do what it's supposed to).

I've tried it, and it isn't bad. I've still got a bit left, but want to run it through a dripper to get a better feel for it, then I'll let ya know what I think... so far, I'm thinking that a little Inawera Biscuit will bring out the bread flavor a little more, and a certain Little Birdy recently told me about FlavourArt Joy, which should help to bring out the crusty flavor, also.

4. You honestly want me to tell you about the other 30 or so that didn't work out? Or the fact that I actually gagged on the taste of a few of them?

Hahahahaha! No, that's okay... I've had my fair share of those experiences, myself!

5. At least you have someone to bump you out of your comfort zone...I had to do it all by myself!

{{{{{{{{{{Kodak}}}}}}}}}}
And you've done an AWESOME job of it!!!

6. I have been...don't know why either. Oh...and if you bump up the lemon percentage then it doesn't taste quite like an iced lemon cookie anymore...more like a lemon bar. Don't know why. And yes I tried it during version 14 lol.

To me, it's perfect the way it is now! I just know that Mike's been using some pretty lemony and limey flavors lately, and the cookie recipe is a bit more subtle. It's exactly what it should be as an iced lemon cookie, though. It isn't s'posed to be "in your face" lemony.

I'm out....no purple Wonder if that pink would match my Noxus though.....I have been toying with the idea of getting the Pink Cloupor Mini +, but I kinda like this one!

Yep! You need a pink Fuchai! It's awesome, and Element will take your moneyzzzzz!!

Hey if anyone is interested I talked to my friend in Germany as to whether they were still shipping to the US with all the new laws and he said most definately. They had to change one of his stores to a "Food" flavoring only store and you can still get Baker Flavors there. If anyone thinks of ordering let me know because I will give you his email address and he will make sure your order is addressed properly. The Germans have a different method of addressing but he will get it the good old American way. The new site which is open now is baker-flavors.de. They accept PayPal and shipping via DHL is about $15 and takes about 3 weeks. His prices have gone up but you also have to remember most of them only require 2% flavoring so a 10ml bottle makes 500ml of juice

 

[garyoa1]

Yeah I get DIY from quack's and they're now labeled food flavoring.

 

[2legsshrt]

You also have to remember that the prices you see include a 17% VAT which if it is still like it was is removed when it is going to the US.

I actually have a tester bottle of Joy sitting right now so I can get an understanding of what it tastes like as a standalone (also have Metaphor, Labyrinth, Up, Glory, and a couple more of the "special" flavors). After I found out I really like the Summer Clouds, I got all the others. But I won't use them until I can get a sense of what they are first.

You know me...I like to matchy matchy all of my mods and tanks...and now drippers and mods apparently. It drives me nuts using the pink Noxus on a black mod *sigh*

Sweet! I'm definitely going to have to delve farther into the FA flavors. At least I finally gave in and started picking up some of the Cap and LA flavors, though... Whenever I mix my next batch of Brickhouse, I'm going to sub in Cap Vanilla Custard instead of the TFA and see how that comes out. Might even do half and half, because that my give it a little more depth? I don't know... just rambling, I suppose...

See?!!? You definitely need a pink Fuchai... You'll get more battery life than you would from the Cloupor. (And honestly, I think you'll like the button placement better on the Fuchai.) Not to mention, the onboard charging circuit in the Fuchai is pretty awesome... if your wall wart is strong enough, it allows the batteries to be balance charged at 2A each! It recharges VERY quickly!

Thank you, Cathy! I'm glad that y'all made it home safe, and that everyone is happy! Maybe things will be back to normal for y'all for a little bit, or do y'all have another show coming up soon?

Home this weekend, next week and the following weekend. Then off to St Charles, IL for the Doberman Pincer National Specialty. One of our best shows of the year. The big plus this time is my father lived in St. Charles, and I still have a step-sister near by. We are going to get together. Haven't seen each other in over 30 years! We have kept in touch, however. It will be a GRAND trip - my birthday falls in there too so can't think of a much better birthday present than to see my step-sister!!!

Makes me wanna go up there and skin a doctor...

I guess it's better than if something was wrong and they didn't test her.

I honestly like the Cap Vanilla Custard better than the TFA (I've secretly subbed it in the Brickhouse I made a couple of weeks ago). And stop trying to enable me! I have to go pay $200 when I pick up the kids phone from the repair shop today Total screen had to be replaced *sigh*

That sounds like a wonderful trip!! And it's really great that y'all will have a bit of time at home to rest and recuperate a bit, too! I got to see my sisters and nieces/nephews several months ago after not seeing them in over 15 years, so I can only imagine how much fun y'all are gonna have. You're right, that's a Great Birthday!

Hahahahaha! Well, I guess I'll have to give that a shot, myself. I may end up making a few other substitutions and changes, too... that's the great thing about DIY... it's constantly evolving. Even changing your own favorite recipes.
Awwwwww. I'm not liking the phone repair bill, though. Okay, I'll stop pokin' you. I ended up having to replace my whole phone a little while back. Ended up buying a cheapie pre-pay and transferring it to my network, but now I've canceled that to try and cut down on expenses... this lack of overtime and recent pay cut is making things a little tight. Nothin' we can't handle, but I never really used my phone much anyway, so no sense in paying for it when I don't really need it.

I had to cut back on phones when I first stepped into semi-retirement. I picked up a trac-phone for $15 and $7 a month for 40 min a month. And if you do not use them they roll over. I currently have over 700 min saved up. Service is not good around here if I get to far out in the boonies, but works fine everywhere else.

Stay away from their smart phones- money trap, but their flips for - hello and text is just fine. PM me if you want to ask more...

 

[3mg Meniere]

Same for me-- cheapie cell for texts. Landline for quality communication. Not official until tomorrow.

For me I have fallen in love with FW flavors. I think they are smooth. I also think they are some of the better ones out there. I use a couple of TFA flavors in my favorite recipes, but usually use FW flavors for all my recipes.

 

[skullblade789]

For those that like pipe flavors take your favorite pipe tobacco and soak it in PG. Let it sit for a while. Like 6 months. Then add the pipe extract to vg and nicotine. So far it is really good. I let my liquids steep for a bit as well. I made a liquid that was really good. It is a black cherry, creamy coconut, bourbon, and vanilla. I let it steep for a month and it is really smooth. For some of the liquids made it may take a good steeping for the flavors to mature.

 

[Kenna]

Just as long as it's the color and not the batteries!

Sparkle, flash, poof!

 

[Kenna]

@Kenna are you still here or have you headed out for treatment?

I was gone. [emoji12]

 

[Kenna]

Something like that would make me reconsider my reluctance to buy a large mod. That is really nice.

I love mine. Not enough to push you over the edge? How 'bout this one?

 

[skullblade789]

I love mine. Not enough to push you over the edg=? How 'bout this one?

I love that.

 

[Kenna]

Guess she headed out for her treatment. Damn I wanted to wish her well this AM.

TY, Legs! It went well today. I was feeling the anxiety creeping in this morning so I didn't chance it. I took 1/2 of one capsule of my med right before I left. By the time I got to the Dr I was very chill. The fact that the usual RN wasn't there didn't phase me. I just showed her where to stick it, & dozed off. Of course the chill stuff has almost worn off & I'm left here with that steroid thing. Ugh! I'm wanting to mix (again) but last time was a craps shoot. (That looks like about 1.75%, or was that ml? Whatever, now I need soma thisun, & a little of thatun. Shake & PSS! Calculator? That's in the lappytop. What's my password? Dammit.
