I've been vaping Pecan Shortbread this week and I still feel like it needs a little something else but here is the original recipe (that I have actually vaped quite a lot of, as is):

Pecan Shortbread

FW Pecan 4%
INW Shortbread 2%
INW Vanilla Cream 1%


You could add 1% or less of the WF Pecan & Cream. Even tho it says cream, I never tasted any when I vaped this flavor as a standalone. Just a thought.

I'm home and I am waking up slowly which I like. Don't get me wrong, I have more to do than I want to think about.

I brought home my "non work" dirty clothes. They smell AWFUL. I'm really getting concerned about this. The trash bags seem to be working and to be fair my robe has been up there like, a month, unattended.

I think next time after I wash all my work clothes (over thanksgiving) they are going to have to all live in the car. It's too dire. The smell is.... I can't smell like that, I just can't.

I did get a (new) oven and that's great. I guess. I checked my mailbox for my electric bill and like, it was stuffed full of some other resident's bill. Gonna have to call the electric company.

Public housing is cheap, but it may have issues it seems. I have put stuff out but it is no match for the smell. I guess I could ask to move, but I'm starting to wonder if it's rot in the walls. Jesus. It's unpleasant. I could go to the leasing office but just... IDK.

Maybe the management can show you another unit and check it out to see how it smells?

I can’t do bad smells. I gag at a drop of a pin lol :w00t: !!

    I swear I mixed a sft of wf shortbread cookie but looked through my bottles and didn’t find it. I did find a mix with shortbread cookie, strawberry, and ny cheesecake. I guess I’ll try that later. I must have forgotten to mix the sft. I did one just now though. I’m running low on base so better get some mixed.

    Apparently my being has decided like, I am doing Not Much today other than yoga, maybe some grocery shopping. I'm okay with it.

    I don't let strong smells bother me usually and if it were just me, I'd be okay most likely. But for serious, when I got home and smelled that suitcase, I almost cried. I mean, I'd rather smell like a 3 ppd smoker, honestly.. Methinks I will be calling the leasing office on Monday and being like, "Um, we have to meet."

    I am ASSUMING they can't ALL smell like that, I mean there are military folks and whatnot and whatever else, it's not ALL crazy cat lady, it's just not.

    The husband keeps telling me I have to deal, but he's not the one going to work. It's probably like subtle enough (with the trash bags) to make a person subconsciously recoil. I have to do SOMETHING, and I will, but this has been SUCH a pain.. Oh well.. Etc. LOL.

    I know you dislike moving. So do I. Sometimes it's a must.

    Yeah I called leasing lady today. Because the smell is getting worse it seems and most of my vents don't work and I was like, "Maybe it's not cat lady, maybe a squirrel died in the air duct." So I told her ALLLLL about it, including all my modifications and trash bags over clothing and etc. I reminded her of the oven (over a month, seriously) and I was like all very nice and stuff but I also told her I was a working professional and I shouldn't be crying over my laundry basket. She asked me where it was coming from and I said "the apartment." She was like, "I mean what area" and I was like, "Everywhere." I mentioned cat lady but blamed it on my husband (he is the one who said it, the odor).

    So they are coming Monday to investigate and also reclean the carpets in case they weren't dry or whatnot. Also look in the ducts, plus replacing my fridge light which just burned out. I told them I would move all my stuff to the non carpeted areas, but that I was having a tragic experience so far. I also told her I would "Hide or remove my valuables" and for the love of god to leave the windows open to dry the carpets if that is a thing, that I had renter's insurance.

    A husband and a home is so much easier than dealing with an apartment complex, man.

    I figured the sooner the better at this point.

    If it is a dead squirrel, I'm going to kill all the squirrels in Sierra Vista. Maybe it's a dead body? That would be exciting. IDK. I'm kind of rooting for the squirrel. They are going to "check on" cat lady. I was like , "I want nothing to do with that, I am just giving you information."

    I am going to make them move me if like, they can't figure it out. I don't have that much stuff up there it would take me like an hour.

    I am apparently doing "nothing" today not even yoga, but my .... is growing back and I don't need an endorphin rush, I need some life recovery. I am super tired. I really missed my rear end, it's my best part if you ask me and I can tell you many a gentleman that would agree with me. It's amazing what a bit more eating and actual digestion can do for you.

    Actually I was thinking it might be useful to add 0.75% INW Biscuit to it but WF Pecans and Cream would be good too.

    Only you know what your taste buds are missing. Is the shortbread just not enough?

    Which flavor would you like to be dominate? I would think the strawberry since the other flavors are meant to compliment. I take it you are using the cheesecake as more of a creamy flavor instead of an actual taste of cheesecake?

    Probably the strawberry. I taste the shortbread on the inhale and the strawberry on the exhale with the cheesecake in the background. I think I’d like the shortbread stronger and the strawberry dominant.

    Hard to say. When I first mixed this up I found the Shortbread to be exactly perfect by itself - now (after vaping a lot of this mix) I'm thinking it just needs a little boost. Maybe I should just stop vaping it for a couple of months and revisit after I've had a good rest from it.

    I'd use the Cap NY cheesecake.

    Let me know when you get it worked out (shamefully lazy of me, yes... but I’ll probably like it if you do)

    Retested the carrot cake in a subohm tank, mesh .3coils at 30 watts. Totally different flavors than at mtl. I get carrot ,cake and butter cream frosting, and a dry spicy ( almost like cinnamon smells, not like it tastes). If SOMEONE hadn’t bought the last of the rum raisin last sale, I would add that to fill out the carrot profile. The spice is sort of non specific... hard to say cinnamon or nutmeg. It’s definitely in the background, and I think rum raisin would knock it down to where I wasn’t trying to figure it out. Maybe a little nut too would be nice.

    I have no idea who would go and buy the last Rum Raisin..............
