    I recently got a few of her flavorings and noticed that some are very perfumey. What is your experience with these flavorings?

    On another note, I have about 54 new flavorings coming today. No idea where I will put them.

    Another question for all you mixers, what do you do with all the sft's you make? I am ending up with a bunch of mixes, some I use in other mixes but can't keep them all. Do you dump the ones you don't like much or???

    The only time I did some sft :oops: I used them as a start for a recipe - just added the other flavours, then beefed it up to 20ml or whatever I wanted the mix to be. But as I've only done two sft's so far - it hasn't been a big problem ;)

    I notice the same. Sometimes I am pleasantly surprised by the taste after a tank has sat overnight.

    I call this rta Steeping :D

    Still seems odd... if your browser will get you to their site, regardless of the OS, it should be able to get you a number... maybe another Apple monopoly... must use THEIR card?

    I can use my Citi card with Apple Pay — even Citi states this. I need to check on the Apple side though to see if Apple will generate virtual numbers for a Citi card. From Citi website Windows only so must be the program they are using has not been made compatible to work with Apple.

    I got a ton of notes done, went to Walmart and CVS but no mixing time. I mean, it's been NUTS. I may get done after like, some extra effort tomorrow. I had a few days where I saw few kids and just sat gibbering. Etc. That may work in my favor.

    IDK I'm a natural over sharer I guess. That plus, I MEAN when are you ever gonna hear such a story again. For a smart person I am sort of "Special" in the southern way.

    I told the husband about it! He was like "Oh GOD Anna do I have to come take care of you now or something?"

    I was all like proud, "Nope, it's ALL taken care of."

    He was like, "I mean, in the future."

    I was like, "Well, I can't make promises in the future regarding my future MISTAKES but I did pick out a very nice bowl with a LID to use for my meds like, in the FUTURE. I don't think you have to worry about MORE coils or anything. That sucked." Then I talked about the wonderful safety my higher power had accorded me with the laxatives and he was like, "You would just do anything to avoid being wrong wouldn't you."

    I told him my prescribing doc and my evil doc were wrong, and I was an unfortunate but resilient casualty and he was like, "Um we can talk later."

    I mean l wouldn't tell strangers, or ESPECIALLY acquaintances those would be the worst to tell. I would not get a T shirt made.

    But sometimes you gotta say what happened. LOL

    @PJReid — I mixed your version of Shattered Lemon. I really did not know what to expect with VT Lemonade Clear — this is very good. I should have known this coming from you. I did add 1% FA Marshmallow for my sweetener. Thanks for sharing your version that I am enjoying. Another lemon recipe has been added to my collection.

    Got it. Essentially an app, hence the OS limitation. The brief glance I took when I found the APay info, irrc, did say it / you could. Good luck!

    Wandering lost in the Valley of Recipes, I have written down maybe 20 I'd like to try...
    If I do not return in a month, send a search party !
    (Pink Panther... Tiger's Blood... who comes up with these names ?)
    Sometimes it's hard to think of names so you have to get creative.

    Sometimes it's hard to think of names so you have to get creative.
    A woman I work with who knows I make eliquid told me lornfully how she can't find her favorite e-juice anymore, like they stopped making it, and could I try to make it if she brought in the little bit she had left and let me try it. I told her to keep her juice (which in retrospect I wish I had tried at least a few drops) and I did some research trying to find a clone recipe.
    The liquid was Drip Co. Unicorn. It's supposed to be like a Starbucks fruit frappe, apparently. I think they did stop making that flavor (Drip Co.) and I even sent them an email asking for the recipe, no response. I didn't expect one lol.
    I couldn't find a clone recipe I trusted and Drip Co. didn't have a great breakdown of the flavors... So I kept looking around.
    There is another e-liquid that is also modeled after the Starbucks drink - Jimmy the Juiceman's Unicorn Frappe. That one I found a pretty detailed description of the flavor profile. Mixed berry with sour or green mango. This made sense because the work friend described berry with an unusual sour note.
    Looked at mixed berry flavors for a while, then got hyped on Forrest Fruit and made that the main fruit flavor. Found one sour mango flavor and thought I was on to something.
    It turned out very well. I have named it (and I realize, now, that I just typed a page in response to silly names for e-liquid) Fruity Frappe and have made it a few times. The woman at work never actually said how it compared to Unicorn, but I gave her a 10ml sample and she wanted 100 more :) . Said it was really good. Three guys at work razzed me pretty good about the Fruity name.
    I'm not going to post that recipe right now, but it is on elr.

    Now you should teach her to mix unless you want to be her permanent supplier.
    I offer to everyone who asks. Once a month or so, another person at work get 500mls of a basic Rainbow Candy single flavor mix at 10%, 3mg nic, max VG. Just last night I dropped what I was charging him, told him it's still double what I spend to make it, and explained the three ingredients and how easy it is to make it.... for the third time. I think I'm wearing him down. :lol::lol:

    Somewhere between here and there
    Sometimes you have to make the price uncomfortable in order to get people motivated. I’d mix some for a friend but if it was repetitive like that then I’d at least be making a profit on it. Your time is worth something as well as materials.
