Overwhelmed!

[Nyxie]

Ok , I have decided to jump head first into DIY and I always go looking at the site and then I get over whelmed . Can't I just have one of everything?

But seriously though. I keep looking and adding to my cart and taking away and I just don't know what is good to start with.
I look at recipes and think yes I will start with that and then get to the site and lose my mind LOL.

Hi Overwhelmed

You are NOT ALONE.. i am overwhelmed everyday as i have so many recipes in my head.

here is wher eyou start.

get some key flavors that will go in a few recipes like bavian cream then think of what you want to make and get some flavors that will mix into a few of them.

START SLOW..... this way you can write down what you are doing and dont JUMP into the DEEP end of the pool.... swim your way there slowly.

hope this helps dawn

LOL Dawn , I can't swim. I will have to be pushed off the side LOL
I will just have to copy recipes that I know I want to make and then make my shopping list and stick to it. I know that sounds like a stupid thing, as if I had not thought of it before, but I get side tracked by all the yummy goodness and thoughts of what if I can't mix, maybe I should order what I know will taste good alone. Then I go nuts and forget what I was there for.
I will try to make an order again and actually get through to check out LOL.

One important tip that I didn't seem to learn till I was 40ml deep in juice. You can mix small 1 - 3 ml batches to test a flavor before you decide to make a huge amount. I think I still have 10 ml of my menthol Bavarian cream blueberry stuff (which tasted god awful)

 

[dawnmarie]

lollllllllllllll..

you can still save it...bavian blueberry. menthol..

ok the bavarian is like a great vanilla. so blueberry and vanilla is a good thing. now th ementhol well... hmm

I would add strawberry.
hugss dawn
