    I’m about to finish the second of the four bottles of cranberry mix. The first one was a no, the second is a little closer, I’ve got two left that had raspberry instead of Pom added. I hope one of them is a winner otherwise I’ll probably put the cranberry project in the back burner for a while.

    Okay my tea thing is about 500 times better than it smells, so I'm calling it mediocre for now, and considering whether more creaminess might chill it out. Maybe. Not condensed milk, I have learned my lesson with TOO much of that.

    It was a relief, I'll admit I had a beverage handy for when I tried it. LOL.

    Also, I am just going to proudly report that this has been one of my most pleasant days in a LONG time, and I got several things accomplished, but mainly... the kid! LOL me and the husband had some teary eyed moments, basically because we knew we would be plunged into a bit of well, supreme poverty for a bit, but like, it was worth paying for his interlock and all the other stuff he needed to transport him out of Tucson with no debt and not stressed out.

    I really can't wait to see him, though! Maybe he can drive down or we can go up over New Year's or something.

    I had a bunch ready to test, but I’ve had an adv love affair with the hazelnut and cream today. Sooooo glad I got 30ml. Wonder if it comes in barrels?

    Probably does but not to the regular shoppers.

    I need to get back to mixing but haven't really been thinking about it so no ideas yet. I'm so far liking most of the biscuit mixes so maybe I'll think on that a bit when I'm more ready to mix. I do need to do a remix on my Chocolate Nut Biscuit. Just an adjustment of flavor percentage. I should do that tomorrow.

    Did you ever try mine? I know we each have very different tastes but I love my Cran-Apple.

    I can't mix anything new until next week. My plan is a Sherbet Lemon, Dumbledore's favorite Muggle treat. I ordered some of the candies just to see how they are supposed to taste and they are delicious. I have hidden them from the kiddos as I think they might take these over my M&Ms. I gave them each one and they LOVED them. They are only made in Great Britain and the best brand is supposedly Bassetts Sherbet Lemons. I can't wait to work on the juice but need something from my BCF order which hopefully will arrive eventually.

    I did buy another GeekVape Creed, this time in rainbow. It is a great tank, IMO. MFS has a great deal with the Labor Day discount still in effect. Their price is $27.99 and the discount, LABORDAY17, brought it down to $26.12 WITH shipping.

    The only thing I don't love about it is one hole for both coils but I got one of those leg measuring tools and that should make is a lot simpler.

    I looked at that tank but I’m not real big on dual coil tanks.

    I never bought the molinberry that you use.

    The pear is just for moisture so any brand would do, I imagine.

    I looked at that tank but I’m not real big on dual coil tanks.

    It isn't everyone's cup of tea but thought I would mention the great deal at MFS for anyone interested. I like the tank a lot but understand you single-coil people. ;)

    I bought a Zeus dual and barely used it. I’ve got other dual tanks and used a crius dual tank for a long time. Between the Zeus singles and the intake Rta , I’m pretty happy with what I have.

    Interested in hearing about the Smokey Plum. ;)

    Migraine sufferer (runs on my father's side of the family) here, too, Myk! I think the longest that I've had a migraine was a month, it was pure torture. As if that wasn't enough, I also have Ulcerative Colitis, so I am always in some kind of pain virtually every day.

    It's been a long time since I've seen a neurologist and I need to find another one, because the one I was seeing was useless to me. Many pain meds make me violently ill (Vicodin, Codeine, & sometimes Percocet), so finding relief is usually elusive, which seemed to annoy my former doctor. Now that the UC restricts my meds even more (no NSAIDs), it is even more frustrating. He finally asked me what I wanted him to give me... Um, isn't that 'your' job to figure out? :mad: I have had Imitrex in pill, nasal spray, & injection forms, but timing is crucial for it to work effectively. I definitely need to try "other stuff", too, but I think I need a clue first. :lol:

    In DIY news, I tried my 10% Lucky Shot last night. It smelled so good, I just dumped some in a Crown that previously had Absolute Creme Brulee in it... :) I decided to throw 5ml in bottle and took it to work with me... :drool:

    Perhaps, my 10% Lotta Latte won't be too strong for me either. ;) I want to give that a go this weekend. I might just throw some in my tank, when the LS gets half empty, to try out the combo of the two together. Overshot the Butter Mint percentage, so will need to tone that down/add some sweetness, because I'm just getting mint, which is not a bad thing, but I'm missing the buttery-ness. @Letitia , I believe you used a bit of Butter Cream in yours; which company's & how much? I've got 6mg unflavored made up to dilute it a bit and try again first, but I may still want to kick up the buttery-ness anyway.

    My Crohn's problem was not the usual (I almost started talking about poop with strangers:lol:) so opioids made things worse plus I've never been able to sleep good on them. Advil used to work for my migraines if timed right, they would knock the aura down with no headache and no side effects like Imitrex has. Then those were cut off. They even told me I could go ahead and try Advil again just be careful to take them with food and not too often, it didn't work. Dr's telling me to take Tylenol just makes me mad.

    VG 84%
    Plum INW 3%
    Smoked Plum INW 2%
    Liquid Amber FA 1%
    Water 10%

    It takes about 4 weeks for a fresh mix to get really smoky.

    Weekend mixing plans folks? I was going to remix my Chocolate Nut Biscuit today but I need to give it some more vaping time before I do that.

    All these biscuits and cookies have me thinking of Graham Cracker this morning and my first thought is Graham and PB. I'll have to work on that after I get caught up.
