Durable, YES! I learned this when I first started. Got something from Indigo, flavored tobacco, forget the name. Filled up a tank in the am. Smelled great. Headed to the office and was thinking wow- this is just like a homemade toll house cookie. But by the time I got to the office, I felt a sick sweet overload, like I'd eaten a dozen cookies. Luckily, I had another tank with Tribeca or something. But that kept me off of flavors for some time. There was another called Cafe Racer Lucky Bastd that was absolutely delicious. I could do one small tank, and I was done for a long time. I've tried mints, menthols, strawberries, berry mixes, custards, mangos, etc. And they're fine for a few hits, but that's about all I can do.

I'll let you live with your mixes a while, and hit you up later for your evaluation of most durable, and give a recipe a try. I've got some Honduran Ligero on hand anyway, and it's not my adv.
I wouldn’t mess with it if Deeming hadn’t come along. Less than 3.5 months left.

MAN! I am in agony (kinda) I mean I can't feel much (anymore) and like 6 hours is too long for hair.

But I got halfway through and washed it all out and HOLY crap, was my hair happy to turn insanely red, like redder than manic panic red it is RED. They also said all my highlights would remain, but NOPE. It's just INSANELY red.

I actually put the burgundy on top, mainly in the hopes of toning it DOWN some, I mean holy mackerel was it RED. I dug it actually but like, it seemed IDK so RED. Like florescent in the dark red.

I woulda done a strand test but you know, sometimes you need these life experiments.

If you always play it safe, you sometimes never get red hair like that nutzo redhead in that awful movie where she was like swinging on a trapeize in lingere movie (insane clown posse?)

Anyway I said to the husband, "I'm sorry I'm not as hot as her." LOL, he rather absently replied, "It's okay, I love you more."

And I was like, "Well, you aren't paying attention to ME more right this instant, I gather. Do I need to cut you?" and then I decided to go rant in private.

The Husband has this thing for movies I call "Chicks with guns and D(censored)'s and little boy hips." Because they all HAVE to be transvestites there is no WAY they can run so boyishly with their quadruple D's shooting at things.

I tell him I consider them one step up from porn, and he needs to watch them in private.

Although with my improved find motor tremor, I am a crazy decent shot, without bracing. I could just come in with my new hair and shoot out the TV LOL seems kindna pointless though.

I am hungry. I should never have sent the husband to Walmart. I refuse to shop with him, it's too slow.

I can’t believe our team made a come back and won the super bowl.
Was rooting for you, and figured you would. After Kyle got us (Falcons) to, then lost the Super Bowl by being cocky by NOT RUNNING THE BALL, and getting us out of FG range, I couldn't root for him. Seriously, losing a SB after being ahead 28-3??? Never happened before, won't again.

I had a ball watching the Super Bowl. The singing, the halftime show, the commercials, the exciting game. So much fun! My son and I always see who can guess the score before all football games. I guessed 31-21 KC to win. :shock: So close! He guessed 34-31 KC to win. :rolleyes:

Henna does tone down after a few days, it oxidizes. If it's still too red for you, you can go over it with some indigo (make sure it's really indigo, not fake chemical stuff). How it works is Henna sticks to hair better than indigo, but indigo sticks to the henna already on your hair. So go easy with the indigo. I've been using henna for years and years. I also mix my henna with some black coffee, it helps tone down the red, and I use a mix with some indigo already in it. On my hair, I get a reddish auburn with highlights (the grays turn into gold highlights).

Edited to add: I have never left henna on my hair for 6 hours, or even 3. An hour does it. I think perhaps if your hair is very dark you might need to leave it that long. The lighter your hair, the less time it takes.

    Hell yes, love it! Never vaped it tho. :)
    You telling me, with my semi-anti-vaping-sweet tooth, that you've got an adv (for tobacco lover) cheesecake recipe?
    No, I'm afraid I've never tried to incorporate tobacco into my cheesecake vape recipes..

    Yep, good game. And had to root for KC, since SF was instrumental in knocking "my" Hawks out. And, well, 50 years was a long enough dry spell ;)

    Any ideas on some different fruit combos (just 2 flavors). Not including the commonly used Strawberry and Raspberry. Not to include Apple that I can't taste or peach that I can't vape (there are probably others ). Also not including Cranberry or Rhubarb that I already use a lot.
