    FW white tea, OOO creamy yogurt, OOO Girly Cookies Caramel Coco, OOO Vanilla Pudding and HA Caramel Toffee. I'm not familiar with a lot of their brands either. I wish some reviews had more than just "good". A little more than that would be helpful.
    Back when I ordered the sparse reviews kept me from trying more.

    Thanks FranC. It's been a year to remember, or forget, depending on how you look at it, that's for sure. Good year in the garden, that's something good. I've been sticking to my tried and true recipes for eliquid, not much flavor experimentation done recently.

    Nice story! Where was that?

    And yes, I miss all the folks who've moved to wherever and their stories.
    I sometimes think back to my father and maternal grandfather and kick myself hard for not asking more questions and hearing more stories. There are so many things I don't know about their lives and experiences which I would love to know. Too late. Lesson there is: don't wait, do it now; when it's too late it's impossible
    My Great Grandma grew up in south east Wisconsin. West of Milwaukee when it was still mostly forested. I asked many many questions of the Old Ones on both sides of my family and learned much. Later on I used to visit some of them in the old age homes and would to sit and listen. I loved all their stories.

    A couple times a week I used to stop at my Grandma Gertrude's place, she lived nearby, always had great bakery and milk ready, we would sit and she would tell me all about her younger days and the family history. Their life in Germany. I was fascinated by it all. My FIL, from the Ukraine, had many stories too, endless really. Funny, now I'm like the family historian for my brothers and some other family members.

    My brothers ask me, how come you know all this. I remind them that while they were out playing with our cousins I was absorbing history.

    And you are spot-on with "Lesson here is: don't wait, do it now; when it's too late it's impossible." :)

    Hey y'all. Been coming to terms with everything going on, not there yet, but I'm still trying. Hope everyone here is doing okay. Thanks for checking on me Zazie.

    I was looking through my computer files for some notes about a flavor and found a recipe file from 2016. Apparently I added Marshmallow to most of my recipes back then. Also added Smooth to about a third of them. Can't remember why I did that or why I stopped. I still have bottles of both of them , maybe I'll give it a try.

    I saved a bunch of recipes back then in lots of different formats. Eventually I settled on a spreadsheet which I still use.

    Also found a pdf I had downloaded from somewhere called TFA Vendor Recipes, using TFA flavors only. That was a very old file. Most of them had 20% flavoring or more, some up to 30%. Like Earl Grey made with 13% Earl Grey, 8% Honey, 4% Sweet Cream and 5% Chai Tea. I believe I tried that one. It would fry my taste buds now. I used to like TFA Honey, it's one of those flavors that can taste nice when you vape it but it smells pretty foul when you are sitting downwind. The wife made me stop using it.

    Total
    Cereal - Baked Honey Oats (OOO)
    Cheesecake (HA)
    Corn Flakes (CNV)
    Creamy Yogurt Cheesecake (OOO)
    French Vanilla Ice Cream (HA
    Miss Cream (IW)
    White Tea (FW)

    I have maybe 40 of HA FVIC, but since I was there, went ahead and got more. I have the toffee (I think). I really like FW yogurt, so no need to search more. What do you think of the vanilla pudding? I’m more of an eggy custard gal. Pudding makes me think of those Snak-pak lunchbox plastic pudding cups :lol:

    It's kind of annoying compared to BCF. I had to go look up some I was interested in at ELR. That was time consuming.
    I had them open on the iPad, then on my phone tabs open for ELR, VCC etc to hunt for notes. I gave up a went with what I had. I’m hoping to use one of the cereals to help a granola bar recipe.

    VT Chocolate Mousse is good.

    Really? And not to sweet? I like single flavors. I have pretty much given up on chocolate. Everything I tried tasted pretty much like tootsie rolls. I'd rather eat my chocolate.
    I like FA Cappuccino with a little FA Tiramisu, it's a tasty mix.

    Agreed, Capp is much better with a little Tiramisu or espresso.
