Just in case the blog is kaput--and even if it is not--I have a small suggestion to make: If those of you who post screenshots of recipes would also include the recipe name in text in the post, people would be able to use the search function to find the recipe here. When the name only appears in the screenshot, searching for it gets you nowhere.

    That makes sense. Good suggestion :)

    I certainly hope the blog can be fixed after all the work you put into it. The suggestion of looking a page or two ahead will work for now.

    I read SD's review. Not sure where in the world he came up with grapefruit. Taste is subjective so, yeah.

    IRL the ripe marula fruit is said to have an aroma almost like ripe pears and passion fruit, with flavors that are quite similar and very tangy.

    What I'm Drinking Now: Turning Marula Into Amarula - D Magazine

    When ripe marula is processed the fruit is destoned, fermented, then double-distilled, first in column stills and then in copper pot stills and aged in oak barrels for 24 months. Finally, it’s mixed with fresh cream and bottled at 17 percent ABV. The result? A velvety, rich, nutty-caramel flavor with a hint of citrus. Think: Bailey’s, but way better. ---> in real life ;)

    This Magical African Fruit Gets Both Wild Animals and Humans Lit (Kinda)

    Funny tidbit... Marula fruit grows on a tree, known as the “elephant tree” and the “fertility tree” is said to have aphrodisiac properties, and is a favorite among the gentlest giant of the African big five, as elephants have a special weakness for the ripe fruit.

    Tracking for my BCF order says it will be delivered Saturday. One of the first I'll SFT will be Aramula. :)
    OK!
    After you've tried the Aramula, if you're not comfortable commenting publicly, on its Aphrodisiac quality, just shoot me a PM.
    I'm always interested in fun fun fun.

    Good morning. It's supposed to rain this morning but still get up to 91 so it'll be like a sauna this afternoon.
    It gets really hot here (can get up to 110 F but that is rare) but the one thing I can't do is humidity (mostly dry heat here) I wouldn't last a day down in Louisiana. I had this dream (ok... this gets weird) that I just was suddenly in Louisiana and wasn't happy. The guy there asked me "why are you unhappy... you don't like southerners?" I said no, all my (and wife's) relatives are from down south. Then he said "you don't like Cajun food?" I said are you kidding, my wife's mother is Cajun and I love the food. Then he said "so what's the problem... is it too hot here?" I said it's not the heat (I'm used to that) it's the humidity. He then said " you ain't gonna like it here". Finally I asked do you guys drink? He said "we're drunk most of the time" and I said this might work after all :lol: True story.

    I've never really tried tobacco vapes except for when I first started vaping. I didn't care for them then. I keep meaning to try the WF Vanilla Ruyan that I bought several months ago. I know it is not a real tobacco flavor, but more of a tobacco/cream combo of some kind.
    I do a "tobacco" mix but it's really more of a desert (nutty, caramel, vanilla) You should try it.
    EDIT: I meant try your tobacco not mine.

    I had doubts about the Lulo as I can’t vape orange or lime. I’m happy to say the fruits are blended together in a way that neither is offensive to me. It does have a slight taste of celery. Interesting flavor. Sweetness is about mid level to me.
    Fran, I am so proud of you (both for doing SFTs and for trying all these unusual flavors)

    Somewhere between here and there
    Great news !!!
    There has probably been one at USPS who ..... oh no, parcel from UK, I'm not touching !!

    The box did look like someone had stepped on it right in the middle. I’m surprised none of the bottles were broken.

    Cat got a bath yesterday (she loves baths)
    We... that's a new one for me. had many cats and none liked baths, but... there was one special cat (the only pure black cat out of a litter of 6) that loved water. He would play with the water coming out of the hose with his paws and even roll around in the wet grass. I have a video of that somewhere.

    As a flavor mascarpone amazes me (it's awesome).
    Yes... I really like it. Some say it has a strong flavor but I like the boldness. I even use it higher % than most people (and it really fixed my cheesecake... that and extra graham)
