    I about fell over. My BiL got me a Dewalt cordless sawzall with two batteries and a charger. I kind of felt bad he spent that much. He also got me a small craftsman screwdriver bit set that will be great for building rtas. I do appreciate it but felt it was a little over the top.

    Awesome gift! A sawzall is great to have, cordless is really nice :)
    DeWalt and Milwaukee both had some killer sales leading up to Christmas. We made “good use” of them to get something for one SIL. They had BOGOs and/or tool(s) plus extra batteries, depending on which retailer.

    To stay true to the theme of the thread I have found my favorite citrus flavor. It’s taken the better part of this year but I’m sure I’ve gotten my favorite flavor in one of my favorite flavor categories, citrus. Drum roll please.........
    Flavor West blood orange (natural), it’s a true orange flavor not candyish at all just realistic orange. If you’re also a citrus lover and especially an orange lover like myself, do yourself a favor and get you some.
    Oh and for Christmas I got two pair of pants that fit amazingly. Which is huge because I hate returning things and trying things on. They are super comfy and perfect, not too tight not too loose, juuuuuusssttt right. I hope everyone had as good a Christmas as I did and their New Year proves joyous and fruitful. And this banning and restricting vaping turns out better than we all expect so many other smokers can follow in our footsteps and quit smoking.

    Any particular recipe you recommend that uses the FW natural blood orange, @madstabber?
    I don’t have one right now. I mixed 10ml at 5% as a single flavor taste test. That’s how I start with all my new flavors so I have a good idea of its flavor. After I’m satisfied I know the flavor and strength I’ll use the remaining juice to mix in tank with what I’m currently vaping if I think they will taste good together. Or I’ll mix a couple of my single flavor testers together and see how it tastes. It tastes good with my strawberry mix which is:
    4% FA juicy strawberry
    4% JF sweet strawberry
    2% TFA ripe strawberry
    Im not sure at what % will work best but say 3-5% natural blood orange. So that’s pretty close but some tweaking may be needed like say lower some of the strawberry % or adding some other citrus flavors or both. Well that’s what I got, not a finished recipe but close. Left as is the total flavoring % is at around 15 which is higher then I usually go so I’d probably lower %’s evenly across the board to come closer to 10% total flavoring and that way I can add if it has a weak flavor.

    Good morning mixers! Contemplating my cart at Bull City. I really need to back off on the spending, so I may wait for another sale, or just plain wait.

    So tired this morning, would like to go back to bed. Stayed up way too late watching The Witcher on Netflix. But have to get up at 6 to give the cat insulin. Probably best that I just suck it up today and get back on schedule.

    Me too...I’ve got so many flavors already that I haven’t used yet. I would really like to make a new recipe weekly with some of these unused flavors. But first I need some 10 ml or 15 ml bottles to test the flavors. I guess you call that a sft. ;) I’m learning. Mom gave me an amazon gift card so I could get bottles there. However central vapors has the same bottles much cheaper so I’ll probably order them from there. But free-to-me bottles using the g.c. sure sounds nice.

    Did you finish the Witcher? I watched the last episode yesterday.

    No, I got to episode 3. And I think I'm going to watch them again, because I'm not familiar with the story, and I think I missed a whole lot the first time through. The differing timelines were confusing. It kept me up til midnight though! Really great show!

    When I was at BCF a week and a half ago he said their Xmas sale comes after Xmas. So keep your eye out.
