I just got most of my geekvape stuff into one box. I have barely touched it
No, I guess it just sounded like a lot. I go through probably about 3ml a day.
It was a lot of work for a fairly modest return. I look forward to the day I find some recipes I like enough to be able to mix 30 or 50 mls at a time. Measuring will be a lot less finicky, for one thing. With 15ml mixes, just one extra drop of a potent flavor can throw things off.
I want to make black pepper ice cream but not enough to order all I'd need. I had it once as a gourmet desert in a restaurant once and couldn't get over how good it was.
Notes. 10:10 to 7:30. I am so glad I got it over with. Had a feeling, the holiday season is not healthy in any way. Oh well, of such weeks bonuses are made.
I am antsy too about overseas stuff. Any black Friday will have to be in the US. did not have time to fully investigate my two outstanding overseas orders today. Tomorrow.
I got antsy though about the Fumytech Precio and ordered one from 3Fvape. They are fairly speedy, extremely reliable and they were on sale. Now I will not have to fret. Wanted to get the order in before the grinches put magnets on the ceilings in customs.
I feel pretty good. In annoyance I did yoga ANYWAY at 7:30 and ate late. Sleeping in tomorrow. Also, I think I feel more or less back to normal thyroid wise OH thank God. I hardly remembered what this was like, clear head, energy, not too much, the right amount, not part of a member of the movie, "Freaks."

Good morning mixers. I’ve got to get leaves picked up later once it warms up a little. I might try to look through some screenshots this morning.
I'm doing an A-B between Chocolate Chunks (WF) and Double Chocolate Clear (TFA). They are very similar. Both are "tweeners" (not, milk chocolate, not dark chocolate...something between). The differences I detect is Chocolate Chunks is ever so slightly stronger. Chocolate Chunks also leaves an ever so slight grassy aftertaste that is not present in DCC. But even with these differences, the two are very close.
Makes sense to me. Cows eat grass, perhaps that's why they call it chocolate chunks.
Chocolate Summary
I sampled 10 chocolates. Perhaps the biggest thing I learned was that chocolate can taste grassy. Never knew that. I am not a fan of grass for the record. And nowhere was this more evident than in WF's Cocoa SC. It was very strong. I also found this grassy taste present in Double Chocolate Dark (TFA) to a lesser extent and also in Chocolate Chunks (WF) to even a lesser degree than DCD. The grassiness were at unacceptable levels (to me) in the Cocoa and DCD. Not too bad in Chocolate Chunks (which had other good qualities that overwhelmed the negative impact of the slight grassy note).
The other big thing I learned is some think soap tastes like chocolate. This was very evident in Chocolate Base Clear (VTA) and Chocolate (INW). It was horrible!
So of the 10 I sampled, here is my list: (I have two more I will try next month, Glamour Chocolate (MB) and Milk Chocolate (FLV))
My Favorites:
Milk Chocolate (TFA). It actually tasted most like milk chocolate though it was rather weak.
Double Chocolate Clear (TFA). This had some strong chocolate flavor though it wasn't the milk chocolate type that I crave.
Chocolate Chunks (WF). Very similar to Double Chocolate Clear perhaps slightly stronger but with a very slight grassy note.
Pretty Good/Decent
Chocolate (TFA). Fairly close to Milk Chocolate (TFA) but not quite as milk chocolately.
White Chocolate (RF). Same as above.
Chocolate Mousse (VTA). Highy inoffensive but very little chocolate flavor. More mousse than chocolate. Might be good in some recipes just not what I was looking for.
Grassy Yuck!
Cocoa SC (WF). Disgusting!
Double Chocolate Dark (TFA). Not as disgusting as Cocoa but still disgusting.
Soapy Yuck!
Chocolate Base Clear (VTA). Gross!
Chocolate (INW). Not as gross as above but still gross.

Good morning, hittGive up on organizing?
I have other stuff I need to get done first. I’ll see what time my wife and daughter are coming home. I may need to do a grocery run for dinner.
What I have learned is an unprocessed cocoa bean is disgusting! How they figured out how to make a cocoa bean taste like chocolate is beyond me. But then who thought of lighting a tobacco leaf and sucking it in their lungs?
Funny how different our tastes can be, I've gotten, good chocolate (good taste) and bad chocolate (weak or blah) BUT I've never gotten grassy or soapy.
Keep in mind the English language has limits. I might call it grassy, you might call it cow poop. Either way, we could be tasting the same thing but apply different descriptors. But we might agree it's bad.
I believe it was the Native Americans and they used it in religious ceremonies and whatnot. They just sucked it like through a big pipe or whatever..
I always wondered if there were some secret nicotine addicts who snuck off, harvested their own tobacco, and like made a pipe to use on the down low.
I have never dared actually ask any natives I know if this were the case. I will say, if that ever was a "thing" I would have wanted to be a part of it.
I think so though?
I am mixing my Bavarian Crème pie and I am not going to mess it up this time by adding too much other stuff. That happened once, and I was mad at myself.
Anna.
Thank you @FranC I feel so many heaps better. I hope it's not TOO better but I see my pdoc Tuesday so I guess we will be finding out. I sort of just feel healthy with a normal amount of energy and not sick or ready to bit someone's head off, etc. It has been so long since I felt this way, I probably think things are 'wrong' when they are fine.
