    I use to buy from Gremlin until they stopped carrying Flavorah flavors. I'm sorry I can't purchase anything from them. Nothing strikes my fancy/and or need at this time.
    I’m sorry I won’t be ordering either. Unfortunately I don’t think a few small orders are going to do much to save the business. It’s very sad :(

All my doors were opening. Ended up in the bathroom with one candle I found. No power no water no AC afterwards. Looters everywhere. Two palm trees on my car. Barely missed the eye of the storm but I was on the edge and close enough. I always said for the six months I was down there, a hurricane, one of the worst, just happened to show up.

    Kendall!!! When I was in my early twenties I lived there for a short while with a girlfriend... She was Haitian and her ex-husband looked just like OJ Simpson. He was the ambassador to Haiti and all I kept thinking was if this guy had me offed he'd get diplomatic immunity. He and I actually crossed paths many years later in the Bahamas and shared a drink together.

    So I really want to make a peach and cream type of recipe. What do you all think about how these flavors might work in a mix? I have some Bavarian Cream too, but I thought sweet cream might be a bit lighter.
    Juicy Peach (CAP)
    Marshmallow (TPA)
    Sweet Cream (TPA)
    Vanilla Swirl (TPA)

    I think what you have right there is very promising. Ironically when I mixed my Acai today I used those same ingredients minus the marshmallow. Now that I see yours I wish I added it.

    I lived on SW 88th street on this radar picture. :shock: I have this picture in my office at work as a motivational thing to remind myself I’m strong and there really is no bad day at work. :blush: And I know this sounds weird, I named my son Andrew (but for multiple reasons not just the hurricane).

    You mind sharing what percentages you used for your mix. I haven't quite decided what to go with. I saw something similar on ELR but it had a few extra flavors. I wanted something relatively uncomplicated.

    I have some Fresh Cream. When you say "talk you folks into" do you mean as a replacement for another flavor, or is it just adding it to other flavors?
    I was mostly trying to be funny but I do use fresh cream a lot.

    I would probably ditch the marshmallow, it can (ug what's the word i'm looking for, ugggg my brain...I got mutate stuck in my head and that's not it)...so yeah anyways it can dull the flavor of things sometimes
    uggg my own stupidity today is giving me a headache...

    I went 3% on the Vanilla Swirl and 1.5 on the sweet cream... 3% on my fruit (Acai) but you may need to look into what the peach flavor you are using to see a good mixing percentage. If I had added Marshmallow to my mix I would not have gone more than 1%, probably around .5% actually.

    I will be using the CAP Juicy Peach flavor, was considering it at about 6 or 7 percent. Marshmallow was going to be very low. I might reduce my Peach flavoring a bit after seeing your percentages.

All my doors were opening. Ended up in the bathroom with one candle I found. No power no water no AC afterwards. Looters everywhere. Two palm trees on my car. Barely missed the eye of the storm but I was on the edge and close enough. I always said for the six months I was down there, a hurricane, one of the worst, just happened to show up.

    I will take the occasional threat of a hurricane to the constant threat of a tornado, which of course there are tornadoes here also but not nearly as often as further northwest.

    Andrew was indeed terrible and Michael was the hurricane you never hear about which caused the death of more people and right at the same amount of economic damage. Katrina was some kind of monster from hell which I hope never happens again in my lifetime.

    The storm is certainly not the worst part, it's living in the aftermath. No power, no phone, no gas, no water, debris everywhere, rampant looting and the constant threat of bodily harm. Like Florida isn't already crazy enough.

    I've been in two hurricanes, a few tornadoes, and 100+ mph straight line winds and the tornadoes were the most frightening to me. I think because my kids were there for the tornadoes.
