    I'm sure it's good cotton, but I am not travelling directly to Japan just to buy cotton. Although I have always wanted to visit Tokyo.
    That's just where it shipped from, Tokyo

    One last (probably) flavor question for the day: FLV Milk & Honey, what are your all's thoughts on it? I put it on my shopping list awhile ago, but I really don't remember why. How useful of a flavor is it?
    I will leave the taste description to others but I like it

    It appears that today is my day of asking random questions. Has anyone here ever bought this cotton?

    I am buying some stuff on Amazon today and thought I might grab some cotton. Also, does anyone know if this is the right rayon for vaping....

    I know they have different numbers on the boxes, but I am pretty sure that this number (44130) is supposed to be vape quality. But I don't trust random reviewers on Amazon to confirm it.

    I'm using that rayon right now and it's pretty good.

    Yes, that's the right rayon. They do make a blend of cotton and rayon, which you don't want. And there are, iirc, 3 numbers for the 100% rayon, for different size boxes.

    Can't speak to the cotton, don't use that inferior wick ;)

    check pm :)

    I buy most of my flavors from BullCityFlavors. For the sake of keeping things simple you could search the site. I realize the amount of flavors out there can be overwhelming. If you can give us an idea of what you want we’ll be glad to make suggestions. While waiting I’ll try to put together some kind of a list.
    I will give BCV a look in a little while as I just want to get an order in for my Mango. I only have enough for a few testers but not much.

    Good morning :) and happy Thanksgiving. My wife and I celebrate our anniversary on Thanksgiving. It all started on a misfit Thanksgiving party 10 years ago when we lived way way, way up north, and none of us at the party could make it home to our families. The best Thanksgiving I/we have ever had, so one could say.. I'm thankful for that day :D The stars aligned for that moment in time. I don't know the exact date, but it's impossible to forget our anniversary as it's also Thanksgiving (even if the date changes every year)
    Happy Anniversary! My SIL got us a nice clock and it has our anniversary etched in the clock. If it weren't for that I would never remember it.

    I started the day by nearly falling, and I mean I thought I was going down which would probably mean a call to 911. I got out of bed and took a step with my right foot and it was like dead/numb and it hit toes down and to the wall I went. Somehow stayed up, hit the doorway and got my foot under me. Whew! Now my foot hurts but I'm sure glad I didn't fall.
    I have found out that sometimes it seems it is harder and more damaging to my body trying to not fall than if I had just fallen to begin with. However, sometimes it isn't: I was walking from my deer blind to my jeep and got tangled in a briar and had super muddy boots. Down I went resulting in a twisted knee and a pulled back. There isn't mud any slippery than Red Oklahoma mud.

    I like FA White Peach. IMO it's accurate to eating a nice nearly ripe white peach. It's strong. I use it <0.5% to 1% and in a couple recipes I've only used it in drops. I think it is one of the better peaches. It will get astringent if used in high %'s (see HIC's note). It works very nicely when pairing it with other peach flavors.

    From HIC's notes:

    This is one of FA's most accurate and distinctive fruit flavors - like a fresh, lightly-ripe, white peach. White Peach can taste a little sharp or “astringent” starting around 3%. For a more “ripe” flavor, combine with FA Peach. To keep the astringent edge and add sweetness, use White Peach with some FA Pear. White Peach is a more delicate, complex flavor than plain Peach - but White Peach is the more concentrated flavoring.

    Don't know if you have a copy of HIC's Flavour Art Notes so I'm attaching his PDF below. Happy reading!
    Thank you, I have it saved for reading a bit later. I am keeping busy trying to get caught up on here.

    Can't call you too lazy when I've been favoring drop in's

    Me too. I don’t remember the last time I wound a coil. I’ve either been using drop ins or prewound coils.

    Happy Belated Anniversary @barkfunklerbunk ! I hope you both had a great day.

    I haven't used one drop-in coil since I wicked my first RTA a few months ago. But I do use pre-built coils in my RTAs much more often than wrapping them myself.

    not sure about either of those, I don't use rayon but I do use cotton...
    I use muji cotton, they are square pads
    here's one on amazon, but look around some more first because usually a pack of 180 pc is usually $5
    https://www.amazon.com/Makeup-Facia...nts=p_89:MUJI&rnid=2528832011&s=beauty&sr=1-1

    I've had mine for a couple of years and barely put a dent into the bag...I only use about 1/3rd - 1/4th of a pad per wick

    One last (probably) flavor question for the day: FLV Milk & Honey, what are your all's thoughts on it? I put it on my shopping list awhile ago, but I really don't remember why. How useful of a flavor is it?

    pretty sure it was fran that recommended it to me before...I bought it but haven't tried it yet but from what they said it's just a smooth type flavor hinse the name milk and honey....not sure if there's really a flavor per say to it...

    I used to run nothing but rtas and wound every coil. I normally would have at least 6-8 going all the time.

    OMG was the scalloped potatoes good! The best I have made easily. I always have a hard time getting it to brown as much as I want it to so after 75 min at 350 I pulled the bacon off and broiled it for 10 minutes. Perfection! I ate too much!

    I just got my mail and got the kroma z from ecigmafia. There wasn’t the normal plastic on the outside of the box and the box was sealed with little pieces of white tape like it had been opened before. I’m not at all happy about it and sent them an email.

    I also got my bcf order early that was scheduled for Monday.

    I wouldn't accept that
