Random DIY mixing and More

[Javichu]

NAH - No need to . . . AND - All is very good, mine you, and I surely would enjoy all of that to the fullest. . . However, your missing one extremely very important thing . . . The privlage of having the company of "ME" . . .

Touche my friend,well played.
In that case...got room for one more?

Ooooo, rubbing it in.

Was it warm enough to go swimming today? And did you?
I would have and Dog would have too! She loves swimming.

NAH - Just a little too brisk for that, especially getting out of the water . . . But tomorrow is another story, supposedly mid 70's . . .

that's a beauty, which I remember well. i wonder what the two outlying antennas pick up versus the inner corkscrewy one.

Outer (longer) ones... VHF (like channels 2-14) inner (often just a small loop)... UHF (channels 18 and up) I'm really into this stuff. BTW, the long ones also work great for FM radio (and you can adjust the length)

Good plan, but maybe make the tests in smaller quantities? Say 10 or 30 ml, so if no good, you're not wasting 1/3 of your stash?

You do raise a valid point.

I don't know that seems like a whole lot of mini bottles to keep track of and honestly I'm barely holding my head above water at the moment.
3 different flavors and just 3 bottles just seems all i can deal with at the moment,even when just doing the single i get stressed,always thinking I'm forgetting something hehe (which already did twice,forgot to add the nic)

But it is good advice and i do thank you for it

I LOVE cartujano horses. They are so freakin' gorgeous.

That horse has an emo haircut.

Our family is just plain a mess. Half doesn’t speak to the other half more or less.

Bummer Fran, I'm sorry. I have a family like that. And it's all over the dumbest stuff that could be resolved in minutes. The wife and I tried to get everyone together in the past, many times. Nope, some have drawn a line and others dug their feet in deep. But who do they all dump their grievances on, yep. It's so dumb. Life is too short for such nonsense IMO.

Who is Hot Toddy?

"he" is a very special guy... sweet, comforting and will warm you up from the inside
One of the lyrics of this song mention "the scottsman has his toddy":

Here's the irish version of a toddy:

I finally got around to trying the .3 coil in the kroma z. My fears were correct. I so far really like this coil for restricted direct lung. Looks like I’ll be shopping again soon.

Please explain (I have tried the 0.8 ohm coil but not the 0.3 coil yet) I love the 0.8 ohm coil (great flavor!) but I do like restricted DL more than MTL. I am very anxious to order more coils and tempted to pull the 0.8 and try the 0.3. Anyway, are you saying you like the 0.3 better or were disappointed?

I had to look up what a emo haircut is.

Looks, ummm... cool? I like the horse's better.

Yep. I learned early on to skip SFT's and go straight to mixing. That's always the best reveal for flavors, for me anyhow. When I used to do regular SFT's a flavor would tend to influence, and limit, what I did with it. Now I just do the occasional SFT.

I almost always do SFTs (I know... I'm in the minority) then I do mixes with the SFTs. After that, I create recipes BUT I will admit, flavors do not act the same when combined... I finally accepted this (as many of you told me)

I'm trying out the WF Flapper Pie now. I should have done a SFT on it, but instead I mixed it up with some strawberry. The fruit is overpowering the Flapper Pie flavoring so I can't get a good read on it. I think I will go ahead and make a couple of ML of it by itself.

Flapper pie is very mild (but sometimes I like that) It doesn't seem to have any crust flavor and just a mild custard/meringue flavor.

 

[vaper1960]

If you don't add sweetener the fruits don't really impart sweetness, just flavour. If you like the sweetness of your minty mix the fruit won't make it sweeter just fruity.

I agree. I love fruits with "butter mint"... melons were my favorite for this. I don't really like green apple but could tolerate it with mint. Even simple lemon works well.

Some folks love to do, and swear by, SFT's. Whatever works, works. I love jumping in and just going for it with creating recipes. IMO, truly magical mixes happen that way. There will always be the duds, but those are good too cause I learn a lot from them.
My motto, just do it go for it.

Sorry you suffer with the same crap.

Our family is just plain a mess. Half doesn’t speak to the other half more or less. It was just my two daughters,one gs and two gd’s plus the little ones running around.

Mine too. With what is left. Dad and mom both gone within the last four years but nieces and step sisters and such, no love lost. Mostly over money too. Glad I never had to grub for stuff. My mom left me quite a bit, that my niece tried to take from me. My dad left me half his ranch and then my stepsister, manipulated my stepmom into signing it over to her after my dad passed. I blew it off. I have my own property and had long before my mom left me anything. I do not get the greed that comes into place with money when someone dies. So bad for the soul.

I expect a lot greed where money is involved. Not the case here. There’s more substance to the split but after this long it should just go away.

I've never understood the money thing. Or the "material" garbage. If you ask me, it's all just dumb "stuff" that in the end won't matter anyways. My SIL's were fighting over my wife's stuff. That really ticked me off. I kicked them out of my house. Neither one got anything. I donated it all.
