I have a big bottle of butter mint and I want to try it, but I have made a solemn pledge to not mix more flavors at the moment, not until I reach the end of much of what I have now. I tried too many one shots, and I have too many ADV. I suppose that is good. Most are good, some I am saving for the dog (I kid I kid) but Rasberry éclair one shot, I am talking to you. I might use it to perfume my toilet that is the only use I can think of. But also TONS of great flavors.

I will mix it soon though, I LOVE those candies and they can be hard to find.

I have not napped since college @FranC . I am literally unable to. Yoga was great, actually. I forgot how great exercise can be when you are sleep deprived. Muscle memory just takes over and you are not afraid.

I got back into a pose I have not gotten into for over a year. Mainly due to fear. Like, I don't fear most of my yoga poses, because the hard ones, I always practice falling out of them in all possible directions and catching myself before I even go for the pose. It's really helpful. I have not injured myself (during yoga) for a very, very long time.

But this STUPID pose! My sister could do it and so I had to learn it and it's not super easy. It involves your knee being in contact with your elbows and then you balance. Well, one time, I was wearing a stupid knee brace and it was really slippery and I was not thinking and I hit my head HARD while sipping out of the pose totally unexpectedly. There was no catching myself. Yesterday I was all like,, "It will be fine." It was.

I did go to sleep at 8:30 so this morning is less awful. LOL. I will make it to Walmart, and I actually feel vaguely human. Every sleep hygiene like, handout I have come across says NO naps, especially when changing schedule. That is no problem for me I have not napped for a LONG time.

Even during detox and the stupid tooth removal thing, I did not nap much. Pass out from pain yeah, but it was brief. LOL..

I don't mind the husband is asleep, even! Heh. OR the dang dog.

Huh. He just woke up. Acceptance is key, I guess. I hate that phrase but as a 5 am spiritual guru (I found this IDIOTA like, poster online that said, "Waking up between 3-5 am? You MAY be becoming more spiritual" online yesterday. It had pictures of like, a digital and NON digital alarm clock in it. A) I don't think it counts if you MAKE yourself do it. B) If you magically levitate out of bed, toward the decaf coffee which is JUST fine for you now MAYBE C) I was not noting spiritual tendencies yesterday. D) Perhaps they come upon you slowly cuz I feel a lot better. Generally.

LOL @Bronze I forgot to mention I told the husband about your little comment and he reminded me to search out THIS song. Be warned, it's a country song and also the lyrics, some of them "She destroys me in that T-shirt?" That should never have been allowed to fly. Like, unless this is some country guy thing (T-shirts I mean ) it has to be a personal reference.

If you are going to use a personal reference, it should be one that is relatable if you ask me. The rest of it, GRRRRR. Heh.

that girl is the perfet storm you tube - Bing video

Also I don't know if this dude has achieved fame (probably) but most country artists shouldn't. JMHO as always.

    Good morning! Filled a cart at River Supply, but didn't check out. I really do have plenty of new flavors to play with. Speaking of which, the WF Butterscotch Cream Pie is very good! I'm liking one-shots. Getting lazy in my old age. :lol:
    Most all one-shots are just way too sweet for me. I have little tolerance for sweet vapes. I did find one at Chef's because hittman assured me it was tart. That one is Rhubarb Custard and I can mix my own when not being lazy.

    I forget the time difference sometimes. You did good on getting to bed at a reasonable hour. Glad you were able to get caught up on some sleep.

    Same here! I just have too much just sitting here. That butter mint sounds enticing but I can live without it and I’m tired of spending money.

    I love naps. I’m one of the few I’ve heard that can take a two hour nap and not feel like doodoo afterwards.

    I used to mix 10ml sft and would end up dumping most of them. Now I mix 5ml sft. I prefer trying them on an ammit mtl rda.

    As far as naps go, I usually never nap unless I’m sick. If I take a nap, I don’t wake up for 4-5 hours and feel bad when I wake up.

    OMG you should have heard the "mix CD" I made him make for my birthday, because I told him he needed to demonstrate his love. It was a rough patch for him right then. (I mean, *I* was fine, it was his rough patch.

    He CLAIMED like, he "didn't listen to lyrics" but that was a LIE. It also included the "Lithium" song which (as far as I can tell, involves a DEEP desire for suicide and being EMPTY. I was like the only thing that is EMPTY on lithium is my mouth, dude) That was one of the NICER songs. I think there was one where one "lover" was killed by angry monks or something.

    It was literally SO GREAT, I brought it over to my little brother's house (when he was living in Tucson) and we spent a good 1.5 hours analyzing the messages being sent.

    I love that mix CD more than any other one I have ever received (and, years later, the husband shamefacedly admitted he did it on purpose LOL) which made it even MORE my favorite.

    He fights back, is what I am trying to convey. LOL.

    Good morning random folks:) Have you any plans today? Grocery shopping this morning is not my favorite endeavor. Not sure what's up for later.

    Um, after grocery shopping, maybe a meal? ;)

    When I do sfts, I usually mix 10 mls, and test in what I usually use, either a KF2L or a Skyline, because the topper will affect the flavor. Testing in something else may not be conclusive.

    I feel like an odd ball here. Everyone is talking about a flavor site being discontinued, but the only site I am watching is pipesandcgars. (Decatur Black Cherry and Cornell and Deihl Autumn Evening are backordered).
    But my efforts do occasionally bring satisfaction to a fellow vaper, like the PM I received this morning. Good to know I can still bring joy over the Holiday Season.
    Maybe I could change my screen name to PapawClaus ? (nah, too presumptuous).

    I’m weak. I ordered 4 ozs each of purilum strawberry swirl, butter mint, and cookie from river supply. :facepalm:

    I ordered some butter mint but didn’t get the cookie. I’m more than happy with FA cookie.

    Anyone have experience with steeping yogurt-based recipes? Does it generally benefit from a longer steep as does, say, cheesecake?

    I used to make a yogurt recipe that was ok snv but found it better after two weeks.

    I’m really hoping you can get more of the black cherry. I really like it. It’s my favorite out of the four I’ve tried.
