Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

Mixed 6 testers today. Still have a couple small bottles left if I think of anything else to do right now.

It doesnt seem clove heavy to me. I like cloves though.

I can't vape spicy stuff anymore more when I did I didn't get any clove from the Pumpkin Spice. I dislike clove and would have noticed.

You know what's NOT sweet? 100 mg/ml nic in Any base. Okay, I'm not vaping that, but I don't feel the need to do ANY additional mixing, unless it's upping the nic in all of them.

(Okay, VENTING ahead. I warned you. You don't have to read it.)

First of All, my new License has not arrived, and it should have been here DAYS ago (I am stressed, since they want a copy. That's NOT unreasonable, either) as I start to complete my, oh, what is it termed, Supplementary application materials. They use huge words for things that may or may not be necessary. Like, Institutional Affiliations. I'm not sure if they just mean work, but that is not what that term MEANS (I looked it up a lot of places) and in only ONE place could I possibly be considered such a thing, and it was working on a grant at one job where like, I worked WITH a team from some super specialty court sort of thing, that and I was briefly licensed as an advocate (it's like the NA version of a lawyer) but I don't know that I was affiliated with the court then? IDK. I was on the list of folks who could represent someone, but I Would Never. OMG. So, I had to email about THAT.

I also had to get the date and number of each and every licensure I'd ever possessed in any state. That was fun talking to Maryland and thinking (you suck so much less) but to be fair the AZ board was helpful too. BUT the Board of behavioral Examiners said my license had NOT been returned, but like, DANG that means if it doesn't show up today I will have to pay 25 bucks AND travel to Phoenix to collect it (sounds like nice and restful actually can't TALK to anyone, and will just be DRIVING but ANNOYACE. Also, I hate my mailman. I told the lady that I had more than a Bit of Doubt that it would Ever show up Anywhere, she says I can get it tomorrow.

And, they asked for a bunch of stuff, but in said stuff was so much terrifying legalize (I'm basically authorizing them to talk to any person who has walked by me in the supermarket and etc.) That I actually was like I better disclose my mutual health termination, it's better than them finding out about it LATER to be honest. I used my most ah, excellent skills at making a bad situation be Good etc., but man, my disclosure is WIDE IDK how much will matter, but it kind of made sense they didn't ask for references (I do have them, now so like, great and all, but I'm not sure they'll be ah, needed. So I just went with the "light honesty" is best, I mean it was not for performance or anything and I WAS ALSO stressed about the husband and I told my interviewers that, just not the big T word. Etc. I also stated I'm cleared to return to work. My doc is not OPEN today, but I left a message anyway. Who knows. For now, it's all chill.

So yeah, I can't turn in my paperwork until tomorrow. I need to check my bank balance and see if my dough is returned, and then do what I can/may to make my final (excluded) creditor right but I need a break after all that Investigation and Thought, not to mention trying to do a freaking.... benefits election with the husband. We have been yelling at each other for days.

LOL, my big goal for today is like, bathing. LOL. Before the end of the day. But I'm calling said creditor FIRST.

So yeah, no mixing happened but the good news is I've been too busy to BUY anything, let alone comb through flavors. Heh. I FOR SURE hope I don't have to buy the kid a phone (poor thing, his died and it's his alarm so he missed work. Oy.)

Also, on the News: The Board of Supervisors are getting all up in the grill of IDK who, ICE probably, to get their DOCA prisoners OUT of the county jail and whatnot, so that will probably wind up being like, a Big Mess with protesting on both sides I will be WORKING there (HOPEFULLY!)

I don't much like the kind of protesting these days, honestly, they just get to aggressive. Wave your sign at me fine (or your whatever hat) but don't get up in my Grill that may SUCK.

LOL, no flavors happened.

LOL the kid's phone died

This
Institutional Affiliations. If you were not the PI, I am not sure they would care about it. They are looking for stuff like
Are you a member of xxxboard of directors at xxx institution,.
Do you own stock in same
Do you have any influence/input over decisions at xxxxx for its' sop?

Have you published any studies/ research or otherwise that bears your name...(no not your book)
Stuff like that.
Not sure if this helps, but it could.

Kid's phone is fixed.

I briefly wondered if I could mix in some horse tranquilizers and then I was like, "Don't be a Drama Queen."

I say that frequently, but apparently, it's WAY too late. LOL.

Yay! So it begins... (Edit to remind me... TFA, NOT) Flavora Pumpkin Spice is now on the wish list!

BTW, do any manufacturers make plain pumpkin flavoring and do we know if it is any good? Perhaps, when I get a feel for DIY, mixing more plain pumpkin in with a spice-offending one will tone it down without compromising pumpkin flavor... Hmm... The DIY musings are beginning, but may not hold any validity...

I used the TFA Pumpkin Spice.

They are looking to find if any institution/business/person that may have any influence over you to be able to pressure you into not using your best judgment in your new work environment.

 

[FranC]

@PJReid You're Pom Gin and Tonic is pretty tasty

 

[DebbieNY]

I used the TFA Pumpkin Spice.

Cr@p! @Skunk! said he used Flavorah, so assumed that's the one you used as well, Fran... Must not assume...

I could probably wait on a pumpkin spice then, until I figure out which is better. LOL! (Edit: Putting TFA on the wish list, after Skunk clarified below. )

Mine's Flavorah. Never tried TFA but you may want to go with Fran on this one. She likes the TFA and doesn't like cloves. I like cloves and they are there in the Flavorah just not too much.

 

[PJReid]

Tried the Citrus Mix tester of yesterday and I'm not finding it very tart.

It isn't particularly tart, but it isn't sweet. Add a citrus boost to your mixes without adding sweetness.

 

[Sugar_and_Spice]

I used the TFA Pumpkin Spice.

If you are looking for just the pumpkin flavor by itself. Bickford's has it. No spices and water soluble.

I'm getting an acceptable low level sweetness.

I would also.read the reviews if i were you. A lot of them are heavy on the cloves according to the reviews

 

[stols001]

Thank you, @Sugar_and_Spice you made it super clear the first time. It makes sense. Thanks for being, once again, my Life Coach and informant.

I actually CAN'T think of really anyone who could pressure me into something. Not unless I get kidnapped. Fairly unlikely. LOL.

TFA also has a plain pumpkin flavor. BCF doesn't have it but Nic River does.

How about information specialists instead of informant......that has a stigma attached to it, even if the term is correct......LOL especially looking at where you are seeking employment,,,,,,,,,LMAO

According to their description, it DOES have spices included: cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg... and clove.

And, of course, I just ordered from NR yesterday...

When I get all crafty, I may have to pick up plain pumpkin and try to spice it myself to create the perfect pumpkin spice stone (that's the right term for it, right?)... I do have brown sugar & cinnamon flavors already on hand (which are in my original recipe, too).

 

[FranC]

I made some rather interesting mixes with my most recent flavors. Hopefully not too much sweetness.Much too early to try any of them

Sorry. Speed reading sometimes doesn't do me any favors.



"It's not just for Halloween anymore! The rich, comforting flavors of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and clove mingle perfectly in Bickford Flavors popular pumpkin oil flavoring. Try it today in your chocolate and truffle recipes. Oh yeah -- did I forget pie recipes? Come on. That's a given."
